It is designed for students who want to build practical numeracy skills and pursue university or vocational pathways in fields like business, health, social sciences, and education.
Expert guidance for complex concepts
General Mathematics focuses on applied mathematical thinking — useful for real-world problem solving and modern work settings. Students often struggle with:
Interpreting data and graphs
Financial maths and modelling
Time pressure in exams
We help students develop confidence and fluency through structured explanation, feedback, and targeted revision.
