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.
