When his son was battling with Grade 9 Maths, the client approached Penguin Tutoring for help, not necessarily to get him up to an A symbol immediately, but rather to cement a strong foundation that might stop him from struggling in later years.
But in the space of only four months, his son has become an A Maths student and has shot to the top of the class!
An even greater sense of satisfaction came upon going through the June exam paper with their tutor, who found an extra 10% that the teacher had missed!
Now, our young learner is sharing his knowledge and new found passion for Maths with his class mates and is now confidently assisting the teacher to explain concepts to his classmates who are struggling to understand!
It just goes to show that not only does good tutoring improve understanding of subjects like Maths or Science, it does wonders for a child’s self confidence as well!
Penguin Tutoring is a well established tutoring company with branches all over South Africa. We provide high quality individual extra lessons in all subjects, to help our learners fulfil their academic dreams.
All of us at Penguin Tutoring were thrilled to hear President Jacob Zuma throwing his support behind the 1Goal - Education For All Campaign earlier this month, along with other political heavyweights such as United Nations Secretary General Ban Ki Moon, United Kingdom Prime Minister Gordon Brown, United States Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and FIFA President Sepp Blatter.
1Goal aims at enabling governments to provide at least a primary level of education to the 75 million children worldwide who are forced to face life without access to teachers or classrooms.
The campaign was born out of an agreement in 2000 between 164 nations, which set out a number of aims called the Education For All Goals, promising to provide free quality education by 2015.
Recently though, 1Goal has been focussed on the FIFA 2010 World Cup, and has made it their prime purpose to ensure that the tournament leaves a lasting legacy of education here, across Africa and throughout the world. With the spotlight on South Africa as the first African nation ever to host the World Cup, and our country’s education system facing so many challenges, what better incentive to accelerate our progress?
“The South African government remains committed to ensuring that every child receives proper education which is one of the main priorities of the campaign…we need to see action at the world cup and beyond.” said Zuma on 6 October.
The FIFA President, Sepp Blatter, reiterated that the 2010 FIFA World Cup represents a unique opportunity to mobilise energies around the globe to provide education and thus a better future for every child on the planet.
“This campaign should become the rallying point to concrete commitments by government, investors and individuals to be true to our values of universality and to the values of football - an amazing school of life,” he said.
Penguin Tutoring has signed up to join the 1Goal campaign because we see first hand the multiple effects of quality educational support.
Many of our tutors have had to overcome significant obstacles in their academic careers, but with their hard work has come an exceptional knowledge of their specialist subjects, which means they are well placed to help others make similar strides.
A well tutored learner becomes a well educated citizen, who can then in turn, help to achieve quality EDUCATION FOR ALL!!!!

The efforts of educators all over the world are being recognised today which has been set aside by UNESCO as World Teacher’s Day. Every year, the 5th October is dedicated to a celebration of teachers and their incredible significance in the global community.
In the Western Cape, learners have taken time out of their exam preparation schedule to prepare a booklet containing messages of gratitude and appreciation for the work their teachers do. Some 31 000 of these booklets are being distributed today. The Gauteng Department of Education has also planned a series of events honouring teachers in that province, culminating in a personal message from the MEC for Education, Barbara Creecy.
While the day is earmarked as a celebration, World Teacher’s Day is also being used as a stark reminder of our nation’s teacher shortage and teachers themselves will be calling attention to the extremely difficult working conditions they face so tirelessly.
For those of you benefitting from the work of Penguin Tutoring’s inspirational tutors, don’t let today go by without also acknowledging the work that they do for you.
The extensive knowledge, communication skills and consistent support that they offer have become indispensable to so many of our valued clients, so if your child has extra lessons today, please don’t forget to say Thank You!
