About Will

Built by one person, end to end.

Maths That Matters is designed, written, and maintained by Will Cheah, from the curriculum mapping and mission design, through to the content pipeline and the evidence behind it.

Will's bio

I'm a student interested in mathematics, education and the ways we can make learning more meaningful and accessible. I'm the founder of Maths that Matters (MTM), an initiative exploring how mathematics can connect more meaningfully with culture, community and practical decision-making. MTM focuses particularly on creating culturally relevant mathematics education for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students, with the goal of helping students reframe mathematics as a tool with real-world applications.
