One On One Community Based Programmes establishes partnerships with the private sector to provide extra curricula lessons over weekends for Grades 7 – 12 for current Maths projects in Philippi (Cape Town, Western Cape province), Yeoville (Johannesburg, Gauteng province) and Grades 10 - 12 project in Mogwase (Rustenburg, North West Province).

It is clear that learners do not always require fancy infrastructure to do science at school, especially that some of the schools are not adequately equipped for the job as the budgets are usually tilted more towards infrastructure than cognitive considerations like teaching aids. With the Mylab mini laboratories kits learners are enabled and empowered to perform experiments anywhere they would prefer to. This means in summary that “Form will follow function”

The fact that One On One works with the original inventors; developers and patent holders of the Mylab concept and kits (Professor Corrie and Mrs Marie Du Toit – University of the North West) provides users with access to the intellectual capital behind the development.

The work put into the Mylab kits focuses both teachers and learners on “doing science” in the classroom, thereby making the learning experience fun and engaging.

The teaching and learning aids provided in the form of instruction modules and DVDs for both teachers and learners save a lot of preparation time and thus enable learners to use their spare time for other subjects which may just be of equal importance to other learners
