Description
These short video clips cover the Math curriculum for any grade. Everything is simplified, visual and auditory, with printable worksheets added to almost every lesson. Once you have signed up for this course, you can go back to any lessons for a review, or go and check on information that you need for work to be done later in the course.
Fill in those gaps that confuse you in the classroom, catch up without a tutor (and at a lower cost, too). In all, there will be around 30 lectures.
At the same time, you are able to contact your course presenter with any questions via an email or message. The Question and Answer section should also assist with that.
Susan Allin is a qualified teacher with more than 25 years' teaching experience. It is her passion to get her students to experience that "AHA!" moment, where everything falls into place. Her motto is: The answer is important, but the PROCESS is even more so.
There is such an unfair stigma attached to Mathematics, which this course will help to dispel. You DO NOT need to be a genius to solve the problems you are faced with. Even parents would confirm your worst fears by stating that they were really bad at Math! If explained correctly, as in this course, EVERYONE can do it!
Gain confidence, get rid of that dread when faced with Math. Open up your world to so many more possibilities! Math is so essential in so many spheres of our lives. We use it without even being aware of doing so - working out how much money we have left till the end of the month; can we afford to have a child, a trip to visit family, move out of the parents' home and into our own place?
So, sign up, change your future!

I have been a teacher for over 20 years, an artist for 60. I was born on the West Coast of South Africa, and this has influenced much of my art. I have exhibited at Alice Art Gallery, Kagiso Memorial and Recreational Centre, Mogale City Museum. I have taught Design up to matric level and received Best Teacher in the District awards.
Currently, I have my own learning centre, where I enjoy teaching kids from ages five upwards, adding in art wherever I can. I have also started curating art exhibitions. mainly in Johannesburg, but have been asked to organise exhibitions in other cities, too. At the moment, I am trying to find a venue in the Western Cape.
I graduated from Stellenbosch University in 1980 with a degree in English, Psychology and History. I have taught English as a First and Second Language up to matric level at various schools throughout South Africa.
