Several Formats Offered to Choose From

There Is A Class That Fits Your Needs

Live Interactive

Live classes offer interaction with a real instructor across the virtual classroom. The best feature of this class is its fixed schedule that motivates students to study and get through the material.

Recorded / Self Paced

Recorded / Self Paced classes are exact replica of an actual class recently conducted. It is best if you have a busy schedule or in a hurry to accellerate learning.

Live Support Hybrid

Live Support Hybrid classes combine best of both types of classes. Students study the material in advance and then meet with the instructor to discuss their questions.

What Does a Lesson Look Like?

Lesson Format

Most lessons are about 2 hours each. Discussions are led by the class teacher with questions and input from students. All lessons are recorded. So you can watch the lesson to review a topic or if you miss the class.

Self Paced classes have access to the recorded videos as well as all related materials such as handouts, solutions, exercises, and exams. They also have teacher support through Virtual Office.

Homework Is Graded Automatically

How Is the Progress Measured?

Each lesson is accompanied with a number of practice questions assigned as homework. Students are expected to solve the problems and submit to the system for correction. The system checks the submission and provides feedback. After certain number of attempts solutions are revealed.

Such submission activities are recorded and automatically graded. This helps students and parents to review their progress and identify the challenges ahead.

We have been educating top national winners since 2013. Our goal is to help your student achieve their goal as we have done so in the past. 

Award Winning Teachers

Small Size

We are committed to the success of each student with individual attention. We keep our instructor/student ratio at about one to tewelve. If student number is more than twelve, a second instructor is added up to a maximum of 18 students in a classroom.

Practice Exams

Each class generally includes several practice exams to improve students' test taking skills. Their solutions are fully provided in writing and as a lecture as part of the course curriculum. We also offer Mock Exams during the year with fresh questions.

Offline Support & Collaboration

Students can post their questions in the Virtual Office discussion forums. Teachers generally respond in writing in a day. Students may respond as well. Students may hold impromtu live meetings to collaborate as well through the conferencing technology provided.

Free Events

Eligibility & Placement

To start the AMC 8/MathCounts training, completion of PreAlgebra is required. Completion of or a parallel study of Algebra I is strongly recommended for the Advanced level courses. If student can already score more than 15 in a recent AMC 8 contest, the Advanced level classes may commence. Student should be able to solve at least 10 questions without guessing in an AMC 8 contest to start the Basic level courses. In tandem with our AMC 8 classes, students are strongly encouraged to study Algebra I and Geometry in a structured manner.

Learning Options

If you caught the live class schedule in time and are not in a hurry then Live Class option is the recommended way. If a live class is not available then we recommend the Self Paced option. This option is also best for 8th grade students who need acceleration or students with busy schedules. During winter, summer time, and other academic breaks live classes are offered with intensive schedules ("camp"). Camps offer the most practice time with teachers. As such camps, especially summer camps, are the best option for most students.

Custom Instruction Per Your Unique Needs

Private Tutoring

Sometimes one-to-one or small group private instruction is required to meet the demands of accelaration or busy schedules. We offer tailored instruction per your group needs. Contact us for setting up a no-committment trial class with one of our top notch instructors.
