Series Details

About

This series is suitable for anyone looking for an introduction for competition math or has limited/no experience in the field. This series is suited for people preparing for competitions such as Mathcounts, AMC 10, AMC 12. Those preparing for the AIME or HMMT and those already scoring 120+ on the AMC 10 or 100+ on the AMC 12 should consider taking the second series in the sequence, “Advanced Competition Math” (Will be created in the near future - check back here for a link to the series!) To ensure maximum engagement, all learners must turn their video on at all times during the session and audio needs to be able to be enabled when requested. Learning happens best with active participation! Learners are also expected to spend individual time outside of regular sessions on problems, so please check if you will be able to spend 1~2 hours each week in addition to regular sessions on solving problems! We’ll meet twice each week, once for content lectures and once for problem solving practice and to address any questions!

Tutor Qualifications

I have qualified for the AIME 2 times in the last 2 years and also have led a team to the Harvard-MIT Mathematics Tournament.

I also have experience hosting a regional math competition at my school.

✋ ATTENDANCE POLICY

You may be withdrawn from the series after an unexcused absence or excessive absences (including excused). If you are unable to attend a session, please message the tutor in at least 24 hours in advance with the reason for your absence!
