Are you looking to improve your understanding and use of numeracy skills in your daily life, at home and at work, or perhaps you want to brush up on the skills that would help you solve problems using and applying numbers in everyday situations? If so, then our Multiply: Improve Your Everyday Number Skills through Cookery course could be the opportunity you are looking for to help build confidence and develop your numeracy skills.
You’ll start your learning by coming along to our friendly, welcoming spaces, where you’ll meet one of our tutors, discuss what it is you want to achieve and do some skills assessments to help you to provide us with a clear picture of your actual needs. Depending on the level of skills you currently have, this may involve spending more time in the Multiply sessions to build your skills and confidence or moving quickly into the qualification course.
Come along to one of our free cookery sessions, explore numeracy, make your meal to take home with you, as well as a recipe card, so that you can recreate the dish at home.
Pasta Bake: You will work with the tutor to look at planning and money, cost of ingredients, and how to shop to make the most of your money. You will compare prices with different supermarkets, costs for additional ingredients, and use your number skills to plan meals on a budget.
This course is a FREE under the Multiply funding stream.
At East Riding Adult Learning and Employability we pride ourselves on the support we give to our learners, from the very first time you contact us, to the day you achieve your goals.
If you choose to join this course you will be supported by our dedicated staff, learn in a small friendly and welcoming group, have the opportunity to take part in activities to practise your skills, be encouraged to continue to practise when you are away from the classroom and receive lots of encouragement to help you build both your skills and your confidence.
As well as working in groups, you will benefit from regular time working with your tutor, discussing your progress and planning your next steps. They will also tell you about all of the other great opportunities that you have access to including help with developing your skills, joining one of our creative skills classes or sessions to improve your health, wellbeing, confidence or resilience. If you are looking for work or aiming for a change of role, then your tutor will also make you aware of the employability programmes we have available to support you in achieving your employment goals.
Our team will be there to support you at every step of your journey and we always welcome your feedback to help us ensure that you feel safe, happy, supported and welcome.
You don’t need to have any previous experience in studying maths or in cookery to attend.
Please bring along an apron and a suitable container to take your food home in. We recommend that you bring a notebook, a pen, and a folder, to keep your work together.
When you’ve completed your learning, you will have the opportunity to discuss your next steps with our team. You might choose to continue improving your Maths by working towards the next level of qualification or moving on to a related subject, such as creative writing or poetry.
You might choose instead to develop your English or digital skills or to work towards a qualification in these areas. Alternatively, you may decide to learn about mental health, neurodiversity, or employability skills, or explore our wider course offer, which includes topics such as photography, arts and crafts, and mindfulness. Please discuss options available with your tutor or explore our range of courses available on the course booking system.
