WHEN one thinks about Mathematics, it is always associated with numbers, but at Japanese Math Classes (JMC), one can expect to learn life lessons.

The free classes by Penang Math Platform are based on a highly successful programme adopted by primary schools in Japan where pupils learn fundamental and basic knowledge and skills regarding numbers, quantities and geometric figures through storytelling.
