Summary
Matthew Mack is a mathematician and educator with 11 years’ experience translating advanced mathematical ideas into clear learning materials and assessments for university and secondary education. Currently a Mathematics Production Assistant, he combines tertiary-level rigor with hands-on proofreading and question design for major publishers and curriculum-aligned resources, often spotting subtle errors others miss. He has extensive tutoring and coordinating experience at multiple Australian universities, where he set up LMS content, mentored tutors, and designed fair assessments. Self-taught in several programming languages and an aspiring full-stack developer, he also creates educational videos and writes technical blog posts to broaden access to math. A classically trained cellist who is hard-of-hearing and likely neurodivergent, he brings an unusual blend of creativity, communication skills and attention to detail to technical work. Currently pursuing a PhD in Mathematical Biology, he’s keen to bridge research, teaching and practical content production.
