Those needing to sharpen their skills for PEP Mathematics will benefit from free sessions on Wednesday, February 26. The sessions for CSEC will take place on Friday, February 28.

The sessions, scheduled for February 26 and 28, are being organised by the Institute of Jamaica (IOJ) through the National Museum, Jamaica (NMJ).    Assistant Lecturer in the Mathematics Department at the University of the West Indies (UWI), Dr. Ajani Ausaru, will lead the workshops, providing participants with innovative and efficient methods to tackle maths challenges and improve exam performance, a JIS release said.

Education and Outreach Officer at the NMJ, Alexis McDavid, said the workshops are designed to address the urgent need for effective mathematics intervention.                      Ms. McDavid said that due to overwhelming response to the registration request the workshops will be held in-person at the IOJ Lecture Hall, 10-16 East Street, Kingston, and via livestream on the NMJ’s YouTube channel.
