Course content

1 section • 6 lectures • 1h 13m total length

Arranging numbers in order8:50
Learn to arrange numbers in increasing order by swapping two cards at a time, using minimum steps. The lecture illustrates target ordering and leftmost versus rightmost strategies with swap counts.
Understanding mirror images14:59
Develop skill in mirror image problems by mirroring shapes across a line, ensuring equal distance, same line, and arrows facing each other, across folds, lake reflections, and grids.
Basic understanding of set theory for competitions12:24
Apply basic set theory to count star-shaped cutouts by identifying intersecting and non-intersecting regions inside shapes such as rectangle, circle, and triangle.
Develop logical thinking to solve problems12:46
Develop logical thinking to solve crows and people movement problems by backward reasoning: add back those who left, then subtract those who came in to find earlier counts.
Basic understanding of set theory for competitions12:24
Learn to solve problems using intersecting and non intersecting spaces among shapes (circle, rectangle, triangle) and count objects inside or across regions, a foundation of set theory.
Advanced number problems for beginners12:13
Solve four-cell square sum problems in a number table to exceed 62, and consecutive cells with sums under 15, identifying must-have numbers such as 14 and 19 and possible skips.

Description

This engaging course is crafted for students under 8 (parents must be responsible for enrolling and managing the account) who are eager to go beyond the classroom curriculum and deepen their understanding of mathematics and logical reasoning. Designed to foster a love for math, the program blends hands-on learning with problem-solving to transform math from a theoretical and repetitive subject into a practical, enjoyable tool for everyday life.

Through interactive lessons and activities, students will explore foundational topics like basic arithmetic, geometry, and logic. They will learn to apply these concepts to real-world problems, building confidence in their problem-solving abilities while nurturing creativity and analytical thinking.

The course not only strengthens core math skills but also prepares students for prestigious international math competitions such as Kangaroo Math and Caribou Contests and takes them on the path toward math Olympiads. These challenges require a mix of conceptual understanding and logical reasoning, and this program equips young learners with the skills to excel.

#Learn Risk-Free - 30-Day Money-Back Guarantee (But trust us, you won't need it!)

By the end of the course, students will develop:

A solid foundation in mathematical concepts.
