Live Life of Fred Maths Lessons Start October – Bookings Now Open!
📚 If you're looking for a maths programme that brings real understanding without the pressure, then you're going to want to hear about our upcoming Live Online Life of Fred classes, starting this October 2025.
At AllMaths, we know that not all children learn the same way—and not all parents feel confident teaching maths at home. That’s why we’re excited to offer this gentle, story-based maths option, paired with live instruction and personal support.

🧠 Why Life of Fred?
Life of Fred is a story-based maths curriculum written by Dr. Stanley Schmidt. It follows the adventures of a five-year-old maths professor named Fred—and it’s unlike any other maths programme out there.
✅ Maths taught through engaging stories
✅ Builds real thinking and application skills
✅ No endless drills or dry worksheets
✅ Gentle repetition woven naturally into the narrative
The result? Children understand maths, not just memorise steps. In addition, they have fun while doing so!
We've seen how powerful this approach is—and as a result, it's the only curriculum we've stuck with throughout our own homeschool journey. Now we’re bringing that same approach to your family, with live, guided support.
🖥️ About the Live Life of Fred Classes
🗓️ Start Date: 6 October 2025
📍 Format: Live online classes
📆 When: Monday & Thursday mornings (Central African Time)
📘 Curriculum: One book per term from the Elementary series
