Teesas Learning Centres have recorded over 90 per cent success rate in the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) for the third consecutive year, significantly surpassing the national average pass rate of about 25 per cent recorded over the last three years.<\/p>\n
The achievement comes as the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) disclosed that about 1.9 million candidates sat for the 2026 UTME, out of the 2.2 million initially expected to participate in the examination.<\/p>\n
Among Teesas\u2019 top-performing students was Moyosoreoluwa Noiki, 15, of Whitesands School, Lekki, who scored 357 out of 400, recording 69 in English Language, 98 in Mathematics, 97 in Physics and 93 in Chemistry.<\/p>\n
Speaking on his performance, Noiki attributed his success to the structured learning approach adopted by Teesas Learning Centres.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe teacher-led classes at Teesas reinforced what we had learnt in school and gave us an opportunity to ask questions and improve our understanding. The weekly assessments tested our readiness using JAMB-standard questions and highlighted areas that needed work,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
According to him, the mock examinations organised by the centre also helped him to gain confidence ahead of the examination by simulating the actual exam format, timing and computer-based testing environment.<\/p>\n
Another student, Chizaram Kwazema, 15, scored 323 out of 400 with 71 in English Language, 84 in Economics, 77 in Government and 91 in Mathematics. She expressed interest in studying Information Science and Media Studies at Pan-Atlantic University.<\/p>\n
Kwazema attributed her success to disciplined study habits, regular practice with past questions and mentorship from her father.<\/p>\n
\u201cTeesas Learning Centre played a huge role in my results by helping me to focus on topics I struggled with. The tutors simplified difficult topics, while the weekly computer-based tests helped me to familiarise myself with the UTME format and improve my time management,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
Her mother, Rachel Kwazema, described Teesas as a centre with a proven record of academic success, noting that her daughter\u2019s study habits improved significantly after enrolment.<\/p>\n
Also speaking, Toluwanimi Ajao, 16,\u00a0 of Trinity International College, who scored 324, said that the centre helped him to identify his strengths and weaknesses ahead of the examination.<\/p>\n
Ajao scored 98 in Physics, 91 in Mathematics, 73 in English Language and 62 in Chemistry, and hopes to study Electrical and Electronics Engineering at Covenant University.<\/p>\n
He advised candidates preparing for UTME to begin preparation early and revise consistently using past questions.<\/p>\n
Teesas currently operates four learning centres, three in Lagos and one in Owerri.<\/p>\n
Speaking on the sustained performance, Learning Centre Growth Manager at Teesas Education, Mrs. Gladys Osime, noted that the success was driven by collaboration between the organisation and partner schools.<\/p>\n
\u201cAt Teesas, our goal is not to replace schools but to support them. Schools such as Lagoon School, Whitesands School and Trinity International College laid strong foundations which our tutors built on using our Watch-Teach-Assess (WTA) model,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
Osime explained that the WTA model combines video learning, classroom teaching and assessment to improve understanding and retention among learners.<\/p>\n
According to her, students first watch instructional videos to stimulate interest and prior knowledge before teachers deliver detailed lessons and assessments to evaluate comprehension.<\/p>\n
She added that the model is used across all examination preparation programmes offered by Teesas Education.<\/p>\n
