Excel Beyond School Curriculum

Our holistic approach pays off, as students seamlessly excel in their school's common core curriculum. They're equipped with the tools to stand out in the classroom and beyond.

Achieve High in Renowned Competitions

For those seeking an extra challenge, we offer opportunities to participate in renowned international and national math competitions, such as Math Olympiads and Math Kangaroo. It's a chance to showcase your prowess on a grand stage.

Explore the Vast Horizon of Mathematics

Discover the exciting world of math where problem-solving thrives, number sense prevails, and minds are transformed.

Why Our Program Stands Out

Our problem-solving program stands out for two key reasons: our curriculum and our teachers.

1. Diverse Curriculum

Our curriculum is drawn from a wide range of sources, allowing us the flexibility to use various textbooks as needed. Additionally, because we are not tied to any specific math competition, we can incorporate problems from all major math contests for practice.

2. Expert Teachers

Our teachers have diverse educational backgrounds and decades of experience teaching math in various settings. For instance, Ms. Wong has worked with high-performing students who are at least two grade levels ahead of their peers, helping them tackle challenges and aim for top rankings in math contests. She has also supported students who need extra help, strengthening their foundational skills and inspiring them to excel far beyond their initial level, ultimately fostering a love for math.

Problem Solving Strategies

Develop critical thinking and systematic approaches to tackle complex problems.

Logical Reasoning

Enhance logical thinking skills, helping students to approach problems methodically.

Number Sense Mastery

Master fundamental numerical concepts, crucial for advanced math success.

Mental Math Prowess

Harness mental agility and elevate your mathematical computation speed.

Advanced Math Topics

Explore higher-level math topics that challenge and inspire students.

"He said he’s learning the most from your class during this distance learning period :) It’s always great to hear that from the kids, because we all put in so much time and effort."

- A Torrance parent

"老师你好!(我兒子) 进步很多,非常感谢你在这一年多的时间对他的帮助,还没上奥数之前其实他的成绩不怎么样,因为他是一年级刚从中国转学过来的,但自从上了奥数课以后这成绩明显在进步,非常感谢老师的细心教导"

- A San Gabriel Valley parent

Thank you (very) much Virginia, I wanted to let you know that our daughter and her classmate were state and national winners in Math Kangaroo competition. It was all because of the MO training. The credit goes to you. Thank you

- A Longley Way School Parent

“Ms. Virginia Wong is a very special Math teacher. As an educator myself, I can attest to her unique ability to develop mathematical minds and cultivate logical and critical thinking skills in her students, which go far beyond the standardized math education offered at both traditional public and private schools.

My 9-year-old daughter benefits greatly from her instruction and has developed a genuine interest in math reasoning. I cannot thank Ms. Virginia Wong enough for her care and dedication to developing young minds.”

- USC Professor

"Among all remote learning lessons that (my daughter) takes now, I find your math lesson is the most organized and productive. You are always effective in communication, so parents know what kids are expected to do for the week. Thank you for continuing the math lesson online as soon as shelter in place is in order."

- A South Bay parent

"I also wanted to let you know that I got into the program! I’m now a full time first year undergraduate at CSULA. I’m enrolled in pre-calculus, if you were wondering. We are going over sequences and series, and when factorials were mentioned I immediately remembered you!

Thank you so much for your consistent support and enrichment throughout the years. I’ve had so many formative experiences from your classes. I owe you bunches!"
