Free Lessons for Knysna Schoolchildren - Success: Raymond Talmaggies

FLKS Picture 16

I have attended the free FLKS math lessons as I could not pay for private lessons at that stage. Because of the lessons I could understand the "why" (basics) of mathematics. I think that students often hesitate to ask questions in the conventional classroom situation. In the FLKS informal lessons however we enjoyed the free feeling of participation and getting through the problem areas. I've done a diploma in civil engineering with the aid of a private company and am currently still furthering my studies. Thank you Frank and all donors for making this possible. Through the help of Mr Dragner I accelerated from 60% to 93% in the final grade 12 math exam. A message to the scholars: Sacrifice your time, make use of these FLKS maths lessons and "DONT EVER GIVE UP". Raymond Talmaggies. January 2012.
