Our Testimonials

At Maths Mentor we focus on providing the best experiences to fulfil the overlapping needs of students, parents and mentors alike.

"My daughter has grown more confident in maths, with less fear and anxiety. Her marks improved by 12% last year, and she continues to make progress. The process of matching the mentor and student is genius — it helps children associate maths with less anxiety, and learning from someone they can relate to truly changes the game. Caitlyn’s caring nature, combined with her patient yet firm approach, has made my daughter more determined to achieve her best results. We thank Cam and Caitlyn for their patience, flexibility, and winning concept. It has been reassuring to see my daughter grow stronger and more confident, and we are grateful for the meaningful difference you’ve made."

"Maths Mentor has made a real difference to my child. He has grown in confidence and now has a much better understanding of maths. Declan has played a key role in helping my son rebuild his confidence. His calm manner, clear explanations, and structured approach have helped my son engage more positively with the subject and approach assessments with confidence. The support from the team has been encouraging and personalised to meet my child’s needs. They go above and beyond to ensure he gets the most out of his learning by focusing on closing knowledge gaps and building understanding, not just getting through the work. Declan’s calm, patient approach and the time he took to really get to know my son made a huge difference. His clear explanations and structured way of teaching helped identify knowledge gaps and build understanding step by step. This has transformed my son’s confidence and engagement with maths. We’re really grateful for the support my son has received through Maths Mentor. It’s been reassuring to see him regain confidence and feel more positive about maths, and the care and commitment shown by Declan has made a meaningful difference."

Sarah McLennan

(Kwa-Zulu Natal)

"My son’s marks improved from 40% to 60%, and he started enjoying Maths. I really value the one-on-one tutoring because they take the time to get to know your child. My son struggled with the basics and often got stuck with homework, but Noah has been very patient and consistent. Their approach empowers the learner — giving time to practice maths during the sessions and including quizzes that my son really enjoys. The positive feedback he receives when he gets answers right has boosted his self-esteem tremendously. I also appreciate the group WhatsApp between the parent, learner, and Maths Mentor. It’s such a great idea, and the system is well monitored to ensure support."

"Maths Mentor helped me with my confidence in maths, and because of that I was able to achieve better marks. I also learned to stop overthinking questions, which made a big difference in how I approach my work. Before, I struggled with understanding most questions and using the right methods to solve them. Maths Mentor’s tutoring was more in-depth and thorough than other services I’ve tried, and it really helped me improve my understanding and results."

Chimwemwe Banda

(Gauteng)

"Maths Mentor helped me change my mind about maths. I went from having a negative mindset and just wanting to pass, to learning how to work harder and persevere — not only in maths and schoolwork, but in life in general. It was very beneficial for me because I picked up better traits and improved my maths work. Noah was an amazing mentor — fun to work with and easy to talk to. He made the work I thought was extremely hard feel simple, and he was always there to answer my questions. He was easy to click with and understand, which is why I didn’t just consider him a mentor, but also a friend."

Wesley Hall

(Gauteng)

"Maths Mentor has helped me so much. I feel much more comfortable asking for help and answering questions, and it’s massively improved my understanding of my work. My marks have gone up, and I’ve learned how important it is to prioritise practice. What makes the biggest difference is my mentor — she understands me, we have a lot in common, and she is so patient with me. I really hope she can stay with me until I’m done with matric because her support has been invaluable."

Giuliana De Sousa

(Gauteng)

"Maths Mentor has helped me to understand the what, why, when, and how of all my maths topics. With their support, I now remember exactly what I need to do, down to the T. It has thoroughly helped me understand my maths topics and has raised my grades. I feel much more confident in my abilities thanks to the clear explanations and structured approach."

Khumo Manamela

(Eastern Cape)

"Maths Mentor has helped me tremendously. I went from hating the subject and getting marks in the 50s and 60s to achieving high 70s and 80s. It has also taught me to be more confident in my answering abilities. I would definitely recommend Maths Mentor because of the positive results I’ve achieved through them. I really like the notes they provide and how the slideshows include great examples. I also appreciate how my mentor is always available whenever I need to ask questions - she responds quickly and always helps. Thanks to Maths Mentor, I now have confidence in my maths abilities and no longer struggle the way I used to."

Samantha Coleman

(Kwa-Zulu Natal)

"My math marks started in the low 70's to 80's in grade 8, where I was in second set. By the end of my time with Noah, I hadmoved up to first set and was averaging 91%. I really enjoyed the lessons, and my understanding and confidence in Math went up drastically. It was extremely easy to organise lessons, and I benefited greatly from them - I'm sure other families would as well. Noah’s ability to explain things simply, in a way that I could understand, is something that has really stood out to me."

Christo Le Roux

(Western Cape)

"Myralene Fourie has really helped me build confidence in maths. The way she explains and teaches makes everything easy to understand and follow, and she always makes sure I truly get it before moving on. Since starting sessions with her, my marks have improved by at least 10% from when I began to my final exam last year. I really enjoy how well-planned the sessions are, and the notes she provides are so organised and structured. Having access to those notes afterwards has been incredibly helpful for revision before tests and exams. The practice questions and resources are unlike anything I’ve had in past tuition, and they’ve made a huge difference in my learning. I’m so grateful for Myralene — she’s organised, understanding, and genuinely cares. Her teaching style has boosted my confidence and made maths feel so much more manageable."

Milena Burton-Cantley

"Noah Rogers has helped me understand many Maths concepts. He is patient when teaching and he explains the work fluently."

"We are incredibly grateful for the positive impact Maths Mentor has had on our son, who is currently in Grade 10. Not only are the online math lessons of the highest quality, clear, engaging and effective, but the care, support and motivation the tutor provides goes far beyond academics. The team genuinely takes an interest in his progress and confidence, and it shows. He no longer dreads math but instead, he approaches it with a new level of understanding and enthusiasm. It's rare to find a program that combines excellence in teaching with such a personal, encouraging touch. Thank you, Maths Mentor, for not only helping our son succeed but for believing in him every step of the way!"

"Highly recommend Maths Mentor! My son Josh (Grade 9) started with Maths Mentor in Term 2, and his marks have climbed from 64% to 76% — now above the grade average! Double bonus - the online tutoring platform makes life so much easier (one less lift to worry about). His tutor is absolutely fantastic. "She goes out of her way to accommodate him ano always checks in before tests and exams to make sure he's feeling confident and prepared. The stress of not having to worry about math marks, homework, or exams has been a huge relief and a real game changer for our whole family. We couldn't be happier with the progress and the personal support he's received. Thank you TEAM MM"

"When I joined Maths Mentor, I was nervous. I had finished my law degree but wanted to rewrite my Matric Maths to pursue a new path. The idea of taking Maths Core for the first time felt daunting, but from my very first session, everything changed. For the first time, I actually understood everything. It was so retreshing to have a teacher who genuinely cared about my understanding. I never felt rushed or judged, I felt supported every step of the way. I remember laughing at how crazy excited I was because, for once, things were clicking. Even Trig, which used to terrify me, started to make sense. Each session left me feeling stronger and more confident. What stood out most was how my mentor Gemma focused on the why, not just the what. That completely changed the way l learned. Looking back, I'm proud of how far I came. Gemma and the rest of the team from Maths Mentor helped me rebuild my confidence, and for the first time, Maths truly made sense."

"Exceptional Support & Results - Highly Recommend! Maths Mentor has been a game-changer for my son's Maths journey! The mentors are knowledgeable, patient, and truly invested in their students' success. Since joining at the beginning of matric, my son's confidence in Maths grew tremendously, and his grades improved by more than 20%. I appreciated the structured yet flexible approach, ensuring that concepts are not just memorized but truly understood. The team is professional, responsive, and always willing to provide feedback on progress. The online platform is also user-friendly, making sessions seamless and engaging. I highly recommend Maths Mentor to any parent looking for quality Maths support - this service goes beyond tutoring; it's a mentorship that builds confidence and a love for learning!"

Catherine F | Western Cape

"Joining the program was very good for accountability. It helped me continue to practice Maths and ask more questions where I needed the most help. The mentors were all very kind and helpful and they always made sure we understood everything before moving on. The program is also well structured when it comes to the cohort sessions making it easy to follow, they are also inclusive by making the program accessible to students who are part of the program. I would highly recommend Maths Mentor to anyone who is looking to improve or maintain their Maths mark - it was highly beneficial for me and many other students throughout the country!"

Lebogang Banda | Maragon Mooikloof

'Maths Mentor is way more than just a committed and brilliant tutoring service. They have played a huge role in making sure my daughter was emotionally strong, confident and mentally prepared to tackle her exams. Their 24/7 WhatsApp support group ensures that all uncertainties regarding homework and exam prep questions are ironed out promptly, enabling a smooth transition from panic and confusion to one of understanding and confidence. To quote Cameron, " Maths is not difficult. It is stressful. If you remove the stress, you can do Maths." This is their area of excellence!'

Jayne P | Ashton College International

Benoni (2024)

“Up until I started with tuitions, Maths had never been one of my strongest subjects and I was struggling to understand concepts in class. Looking back, I don’t think I would have passed if it weren’t for the tutoring I received, and this is something I always share with anxious grade 11s when they ask for advice – a tutor is a must have! Unfortunately, schools are for group learning and some people don’t learn at the same pace as everyone else, tutors/mentors tailor the learning experience to your needs.”

Ve'da M | New Forest High School

(2013)

"Maths Mentor's personalized approach and care made a significant difference in my learning experience. I loved the tailored approach to learning and the verbal explanations provided in memos. The staff members were genuinely interested in helping me achieve my goals. I wish I had found Maths Mentor earlier! For students feeling anxious about their Maths mark, I advise reaching out for help and doing their best. Maths is a mental game, but with the right approach, it is entirely possible. Overall, I would highly recommend Maths Mentor to anyone looking to improve their Maths skills. The personalized approach and caring staff made a significant impact on my learning experience, and I achieved a mark that exceeded my expectations. Thank you, Maths Mentor!"

Reese O | Cambridge Academy

(2022)

"I was feeling anxious and overwhelmed about achieving high marks in Maths for matric, as it was a requirement for me to get into medical school. That's when I found Maths Mentor, and my experience with them has been nothing short of excellent. Their tutors were non-judgmental and explained concepts in-depth, which helped me grasp the theory behind each answer. They were always happy to help, and I remember the friendly energy around the company most fondly. Overall, I highly recommend Maths Mentor to anyone struggling with Maths or wanting to achieve excellent marks. Their mentors are knowledgeable, friendly, and dedicated to helping students succeed."

Faith M | Kingswood College

(2022)

“I started tuitions in grade 9, with an aim to finish matric and receive a bachelors pass. Cameron taught me with such passion and truly cared about my marks, and me as a person, unlike other tutor I had for other subjects! We grew together as student and tutor through a four-year journey and I’m so grateful to have walked that academic path with him! To those who are considering a mentor, my suggestion is find someone who understands you and what you want to achieve, as working with someone who holds you accountable will help you reach your goal of getting into the university you’ve always dreamed of!”

Georgina E | St Henry’s Marist College

(2021)

“I remember never dreading our lessons, which for me was a massive thing, as Maths in class wasn’t something I enjoyed at all. Cameron made sure I remained on target towards my goals during the academic year, which allowed the learning process to be consistently paced, leading to my great end of year result. This is something that makes a lot more sense now in hindsight, as I am a business owner in the personal fitness industry, supporting others towards their goals. If I was speaking to a student in grades 9-11, I would suggest getting the ball rolling now in terms of getting support to avoid a last-minute panic closer to the exams!”

Michael T | Glenwood High School

(2013)

“Needing a 50% in Maths to get into my university course of choice, I was sitting on a 35-45% average in grade 11 when I started tuitions. I honestly believe the way Cameron adapted the lessons was perfect for me, and I really enjoyed how he used past papers to illustrate the various methods I could use in exams to solve certain problems. Students, please make sure you a find a mentor who understands your goals for the subject and is willing to collaborate with you. Thank you for being that for me, Cameron, I cannot recommend Maths Mentor enough!”

Tia B | Durban Girls High School

(2019)

"Maths Mentor provides an excellent online extra lesson service. With their wide range of tutors available you have the opportunity to match with a mentor that suits your learning style and needs. Their hours are extremely flexible and they are always available to help you any time of the day. This level of attentiveness, willingness to help, along with the endless support from your mentors, in itself makes a big difference. "

"This goes far beyond just a regular tutoring centre, it is a program that has helped me grow not only as a Maths student but as a person as well. The mentors are world class and explain the topics in such a way that I can understand it - which helps me to improve and get better results. It is a fantastic resource which will only help you to improve your results"

Bryce Fox | Reddam House Bedfordview

(2024)

"I loved how much thought goes into the learning process and how truly tailored the whole experience is. From the way the memos are constructed to the approaches in explanations. I am a verbal learner and for me it was really helpful having “words of explanation” on memos provided. I also loved how personal and caring the members of staff are. They take a genuine interest assisting you in maintaining or achieving a new goal."

Reese Oelofse | Cambridge Academy

(2022)

"It's impossibly rare to find a group of people as patient, caring, and enthusiastic to help students achieve their personal goals in Maths, as the Maths Mentors. No matter your learning style, they have you covered, and they appreciate everyone's unique approach to Maths. I genuinely cannot recommend Maths Mentor enough!"

Naama Gralnik | Torah Academy Girls' High School

(2023)

"With the Mentors from Maths Mentor you can always expect non judgmental replies and indepth all answers to your questions. There is a very friendly energy around the company and mentors are always happy to help and explain in as many ways as you need to grasp an answer and the theory behind it."
