Engineering Technician Jac is no longer dizzy over decimals now that she has refreshed her maths and boosted her confidence with the Multiply team at Truro and Penwith College. Jac wanted to strengthen her maths skills so that she could help others at work while supporting them with their studies. “I now feel confident enough to study to retake my maths GCSE as I have learnt to love maths. I plan to re-sit my GCSE next year.” – Jac
Connor is the Bar Manager at Adam Handling’s Ugly Butterfly in Carbis Bay. As a teenager, Connor thought he would never have a need or use for maths in his adult life. Connor now recognises that we use maths every day and tells us how achieving a maths qualification with Truro and Penwith College has enabled him to progress in his career. Connor makes drinks using a spec and each spec is broken down into millilitres. Getting these measurements correct and accurately reading scales (maths) is the difference between creating a great cocktail and a complete mess.
I would say that maths is a key skill. There is so much that I depend on with my knowledge of maths when it comes to this job.” - Connor
