5. How were we formed?
The founding members of MathsLive, are teachers who originally worked for the EdTech startup Watobe. At the end of 2023 the funders of Watobe felt that is was no longer viable to continue with the business. We really felt Watobe offered students something not available anywhere else and that it was important to have reasonably priced extra maths help available to young South Africans! So when Watobe decided it would shut down, we decided amongst ourselves to carry on the service under a new name. Thus a new business called MathsLive was born.
