Kids take weekly after-school math classes grouped by grade, working through a demanding curriculum that stresses logic, persistence and problem solving, from early elementary through high school. A competition track is available for students who want extra challenge.
Students get one-on-one or small-group tutoring from certified tutors after an academic evaluation, with plans covering math, reading, writing, science and study skills. Older kids can prepare for SAT, ACT and other standardized tests.
Students work through a personalized plan built from an initial skills assessment, getting small-group help from instructors on everything from number sense to algebra and test prep. Kids can also bring school homework to get support during sessions.
Kids get a personalized math plan after a diagnostic assessment, then work with instructors in small groups on the specific skills they need, from counting and fractions through algebra and SAT prep. Homework help is folded into the sessions.
Children build games and projects in Scratch, Minecraft and Roblox before moving on to text-based languages like Python and JavaScript, plus robotics and 3D printing. Small classes give each student plenty of instructor attention.
Kids complete short, leveled math and reading worksheets each day and visit the center on scheduled days to work under instructor guidance and get graded feedback. Because each child progresses by mastery rather than grade, the program works for young beginners and advanced students alike.
