About

Join us as we dive into Prealgebra by Richard Rusczyk, one concept at a time, the Art of Problem Solving way. Each class focuses on a key subtopic from the book, blending clear explanations with challenging practice problems to build real mathematical mastery. Perfect for students who want to strengthen their foundations, sharpen their problem-solving skills, and start thinking like a true mathematician; no prior AoPS experience is needed.

I'm a student going into high school in a few months, born and raised in San Fransisco but I am currently living in India. I am a red belt in taekwondo, tenderfoot rank in Boy Scouts, and enjoy listening to music, Arduino, and reading, especially fantasy. I can specialise in anything up to 8th grade level math and history.
