Welcome to all things Tuākana & Mā te Matatau at the Business school.

WHAT IS IT?

Both these programs are here to optimize your learning experience and academic journey at the Business School. We are here to help you reach your goals!

Tuākana Programme

The Tuākana Programme exists to champion Māori and Pacific academic undergraduate success at the University of Auckland. Our team, here at the Business school, are made up of high-achieving Māori and Pacific tutors who have already finished their first year of undergraduate studies and are completing undergraduate and/or postgraduate degrees.

We offer weekly workshops where both content-recap, as well as academic-upskilling, happen.

Mā te Matatau

Mā te Matatau works alongside Tuākana in providing support to our Maori & Pasifika Students for assignment and exam preparation.

This service offers additional one to one tutoring for Māori and Pacific students who are wanting help on any of the core Business Undergraduate First Year Courses (BUS111, BUS112, BUS114, BUS115, INFOSYS110 & BUS202). This is a free service so reach out to your tutors if you're interested in taking part.
