Extra classes and lessons for maths

Master Maths is maths extra classes for grade 4 to 12 learners. Our system covers the entire South African curriculum at more than 140 centres across South Africa. Master Maths has been providing maths tuition since 1976 and has assisted two generations with extra maths classes.

Our extra lessons combine three principles to get results:

The M2 system:

Master Maths uses its unique M2 computer-based teaching system to illustrate maths principles interactively. Learners come for maths extra classes at one of our 140 centres for instruction. The System uses voice and animated images during the maths lessons to encourage learner interaction. This method is ideal for illustrating concepts because modern learners are more visually inclined and relate effectively to computer graphics. For examples, see the Maths Program Demo page. The teaching content is written by experienced maths teachers, who interpret the South African curriculum into a user-friendly and easy-to-understand format.

Inspired tutors:

Learners are individuals and approach problems in different ways: it is easier to explain difficult maths concepts with direct personal attention. This is why constant tutor supervision and guidance is always available at Master Maths, and it remains key to results-driven extra classes. By combining the computer based system with tutors we teach learners to find solutions independently. The computer interface first interactively demonstrates how to complete specific problems. After this, learners attempt examples, and if anything is unclear, the tutor guides him or her in the right direction. By employing this method of extra maths classes it becomes second nature for learners to solve unfamiliar problems independently. The result is effective tutor involvement: not too much or too little attention, but just right! Click here for more information on our inspired tutors.

Motivated learners:

The key to getting learners out of a maths slump is to enable ‘light-bulb’ moments at our extra classes. Once they realize that they can do maths, and effortlessly recall the concepts, it can bring about a miraculous change in their attitude. When they see the improvement in their results they become more confident and motivated to excel.  Better results can lead to increased study opportunities and improved future prospects.
