About

Instructor: Leo L

Duration: Sept 5, 2025 – 2025 AMC 10A/12A (Nov 5, 2025)

Sessions: 22 live interactive classes (60–90 minutes each)

Format: Concept explainers, guided examples, timed AMC practice, collaborative solutions, and Q&A. Intros/reviews are 90 minutes, main lessons 75 minutes, short topics and the finale are 60 minutes.

Description: We prepare for AMC 10/12 exclusively using problems from the textbook in a rapid 2 month period. You’ll learn contest-proven strategies across algebra, number theory, counting/probability, and geometry, with weekly mini-mocks and targeted feedback. By the end, you’ll solve faster, avoid common traps, and walk into test day with a personalized plan.

View Profile

Hi, I’m Leo! I love teaching math and physics, especially AP Calculus, AP Statistics, and problem-solving strategies from competition math (3x AIME qualifier). I’m also experienced in AP Physics and enjoy breaking down tough concepts into simple steps. Since I grew up in Korea, I’m fluent in Korean and can teach bilingually if that helps learners. Outside of academics, I’m a clarinetist and pianist who mentors younger musicians, so I know how to explain things patiently and build confidence.
