MathEdge+: Sharpen Problem Solving Skills and Excel in Math Competitions (Grades K-8, School-Year-Round)  (for advanced students)

Want to learn valuable problem solving skills, critical reading, logical math, written and oral presentation skills-all in one package? Come join one of our ongoing classes (JumpStart, Beg, PreInt, Int, Adv, Competitive) and also get trained to be a competitive mathlete and win prestigious math competitions such as MathOlympiads, MathCounts, PMWC, and/or AMC. This program is designed for advanced math students, set in an interactive, dynamic, small class size, nurturing environment. Emphasis is on the understanding of fundamental concepts and approaches (instead of simple rote math manipulation and memorization) and how to apply them effectively in solving complex problems to help succeed in an increasingly competitive global environment.

Assessment is required before joining. Program runs from September till June for 10 months. Signup is either by whole year or by semester. Each level has its own curriculum shown below:
