using class to make timer

Programming Questions

mostly having trouble in the getSecondsLeft method inside the timer class. It works find until I go over 60 seconds time. I cant think of a way to reset the seconds timer. There is also the problem that it runs several times a second and minute timer has several minutes taken out because it passes conditional a few times. I can solve this but doing a reference check to see if the seconds value changes, but this seems messy...?
also thought about using second() but not sure if this would be best approach.
any suggestions are much appreciate.

class file with problem:
