Australian Story

Channelling Mr Woo² (23x7)

Ausstrahlung: Mär 19, 2018

Eddie Woo is Australia’s most famous maths teacher. He first came to prominence with "Wootube”"— his free YouTube channel that went viral with its fun and easy-to-understand explanations of difficult maths concepts. Over the past year since Australian Story first profiled Eddie, his career has skyrocketed. He’s gone from suburban high school maths teacher to award-winning celebrity, because of his unique and contagious teaching style. He was named the 2018 Australian Local Hero in the Australia Day Awards and he’s in the running for the $1.3 million Global Teacher Prize — and the title of the world’s best teacher. But Eddie’s spectacular success has come at some cost to his own students and family.
