Simon's instructional approach surpasses that of traditional college or high school educators.

Somehow, and I don’t know how, I managed to pull it out of the bag, as I passed my FS Maths 🧮 Level 2 in April 2024 (literally 2 weeks before my 40th birthday so I can say I passed it before I got old. I passed at the second attempt, after initially failing in January.

This despite all the disadvantages I had to endure as regards to my visual impairment which consequently meant I need larger font resources and a in-class scribe (to do my reading & writing for me), as well as emotional issues surrounding Maths as well.

After initially failing, I was permitted to do my exam during the Easter holidays and I think having the quieter environment helped me (as well as being able to take breaks and the extra-time I was given) but I eventually passed and my certificate now takes pride of place alongside my GCSE English Grade C I attained in school. I know Level 2 is equivalent to a GCSE Grade C, but I may consider doing the actually GCSE in the future if I feel I can do it. Videos like this and Math With Mr J also helped as, due to vision loss, in more a visual learner and her more from watching videos rather reading text, which can be a challenge for me.
