In Limpopo, a teacher with a passion for education and helping uplift school learners in underprivileged and rural areas has written a Mathematics book.

Vhahangwele Khuba; from Thohoyandou; has published ‘Skyrocket Mathematics’, a Grade 9 Mathematics book that simplifies and helps provide a better understanding of the subject. The book has also been recognised by the Department of Education.

Kuba is one of the very few black authors to have ever published a Maths book in Limpopo province, and is passionate about learners not only passing the subject, but knowing how to apply it as well.

“I have seen a gap in between. And I said, why not cover the gap or limit the gap. Then I came up with the idea of writing Skyrocket Mathematics which explains Math in the best simple way. This book can be used by you and your child at home but provided you understand English, whether you did not pass Math in primary school or high school. With this book, I am telling you, you can.

“So, the main reason of writing this book is to promote a black child from the mentality that Maths is very difficult. So, we are trying; by all means; to simplify Maths. We want Maths to be up there, most especially for black people,” Kuba said.
