Want to boost your confidence when using numbers?

However, 'maths' makes you feel, you are not alone. Everyone has different feelings around numeracy, which are not related to their ability. There is no such thing as a “numbers person”.

We all use numbers every day, often without realising it. Being confident in our number skills helps us with many everyday tasks such as cooking, shopping, or enjoying our hobbies like DIY.

This course will help relieve your anxiety and boost your confidence in using numbers in everyday life. Through success and gaining new skills, you will become more confident to use numbers in everyday life and develop a positive attitude towards maths.
