The South African non-profit initiative MathMoms is training unemployed women to provide remedial mathematics support to foundation phase learners in Grades 2 and 3 across 28 schools in the Cape Flats.
The programme pairs facilitators with small groups of learners, using interactive games such as dominoes and cards to teach basic concepts of addition and multiplication.
Founded in 2016 in Elsies River, in Cape Town the initiative has expanded to communities including Lavender Hill, Athlone, Steenberg and Kensington.
Each participating school has seven facilitators, supported by a mentor who oversees lessons.
Communications manager Judy-Ann Cilliers says the women receive extensive mathematics training, opening up future career opportunities. The programme also includes life skills and financial literacy training, with participants earning a stipend while helping to create safe and supportive learning environments.
