Mother of 4, qualified Teacher raised in Te Ao Māori around Kohanga, Kura Kaupapa and passionate about upholding and sharing my knowledge with others.

I highly recommend Odessa as a Māori tutor. She’s patient, knowledgeable, and creates a comfortable learning environment that builds real confidence. Her teaching is clear, supportive, and culturally grounded. If you want to learn Māori the right way, Odessa is an excellent choice.

Odessa is my mother, and has passed her knowledge and the language down to me, and my other siblings. Now that I’ve grown up becoming an adult I confidently speak te reo Māori when, and where I want to, without being shy. Without this amazing teacher I wouldn’t be expressing my culuture in the English language and Māori language
