Struggling with WASSCE Maths? Stop guessing. Let’s fix the gap step by step.
Stop Guessing. Start Understanding.
You’ve done the past questions. You’ve copied the notes. But the same mistakes keep showing up in your Mathematics. That usually means there’s a gap somewhere that nobody has spotted yet.
The Maths Clinic helps SHS and NOVDEC students find that gap, understand it, and fix it one step at a time.

Where Does Mathematics Trip You Up?
Struggling in Mathematics doesn’t mean you’re lazy. Most of the time, one topic has a weak spot underneath it, and that weak spot keeps costing you marks. These are the places where WAEC examiners see it happen year after year. Which one sounds like you?
Word Problems
Most common · named in 9 of 12 WAEC reports
You follow the story fine. The trouble starts when you have to turn it into an equation.
Mensuration & Geometry
You know some of the formulas, but once a diagram, an angle or a 3D shape shows up, things fall apart.
Graph Reading & Evidence
You read the right value off the graph, then lose marks because you didn’t show how you got it.
Business Maths
Buying and selling makes sense at the market. On paper, profit, loss, discount and interest get tangled up.
Trigonometry
Sin, cos or tan? Opposite or adjacent? Is your calculator even in degrees? Small slips here cost big marks.
Probability & Statistics
The question is long, the data is messy, and you’re not sure which method it wants.
If you saw yourself in any of these, good. Now we know where to start.
Don’t just correct the answer. Understand the mistake.
Getting a question wrong is often the beginning of understanding it. Here we look past the final answer to the thinking behind the mistake, then help you get it right next time. It takes about three minutes.

How The Maths Clinic works
Most students who struggle aren’t lazy. They’re carrying a weak spot nobody has found yet. So we don’t start with “How many questions have you solved?” We start with “What’s causing this mistake?”
1. Find your weak area
Take the free 18-question check. It’s a quick screen, not an exam: it shows where to start.
2. Learn the fix
Free lessons that write out every step, including the ones that usually get skipped.
3. Practise it
Questions on that one topic, with feedback on each answer that shows which mistake keeps coming back.
4. Check again
Come back in a week with fresh questions. If your score has moved, move on to the next area.
Doing more questions won’t help if you keep making the same mistake. Fix the gap first, then practise. That’s how the marks come.

12 years of WAEC reports. The same few gaps.
We read every Chief Examiner’s report for Core Mathematics we could find, from 2011 to 2025, and checked each topic against the 2023 SHS curriculum. The marks are not lost at random.
reports name turning word problems into equations as a weakness.
Three reports in a row name illustrating information in a diagram as a weakness.
Candidates drew graphs well but lost marks for not showing evidence of reading from them.
Built by a Teacher Who Understands the Struggle
I’m Dickson Sarpong, an NTC-certified Senior High School Mathematics teacher in Ghana. In the classroom, I see bright students lose confidence in Mathematics. Most of them can do it. Nobody has taken the time to find out what’s going wrong. That’s why I started The Maths Clinic. If you’re struggling, you don’t need more pressure. You need someone to find the gap, explain it clearly and help you fix it. That’s what I’m here for.

What Students and Parents Say
Thank you for your support, and thanks for how you made me understand graphs. I came across graphs in statistics today, and it was easy for me to plot my own while others were finding it difficult. I have to thank you once again. 🙏
I am so happy I registered my child on math clinic to learn math! Before, my child struggled and was scared of math, but now he looks forward to every lesson. The teachers are patient, the lessons are fun and easy to understand, and I can see real improvement in school results. I highly recommend it to every parent!
