RHS ESSENTIAL 

Many students feel like knowing how to do well in math is an inborn skill, something that can’t be learned. But the truth is that anyone can be successful in math – they just need the right strategies. Over the next few days, we will be investigating tips for Math success! 

Tip #8: Basic skills are essential. 

Quick: what’s 9 times 7? To be successful, students must be able to answer this correctly in their sleep. The multiplication tables are the basis for most high school math problems. If your child doesn’t know them, practice! Make flash cards, buy a computer program, and practice, practice, practice.

“People who have not yet renewed their licence they must start making their way to the licencing centres. Just for their convenience, the centres have extended their hours of operation, many of them until 6pm, but there are two in Gauteng RTMC (Road Traffic Management Corporation ) offices that open from 7am to 9pm Monday to Monday.”
