Maths Anxiety/ Number Confidence Workshops
Anyone can experience maths anxiety, or fear of maths, including adults and children. Although maths anxiety can affect your performance, it’s not connected to intelligence or ability in maths. Two in three learners who worry about maths will eventually succeed in the subject.
Our Maths Anxiety workshops help raise awareness of maths anxiety, whether it’s in the workplace, learning environments or the home. We look at the possible causes of maths anxiety and explore simple steps we can take to address maths anxiety.
Budgeting Courses
