Math Competition Tutoring Services

I offer comprehensive tutoring for students preparing for major math competitions including Math Kangaroo, MathCounts, AMC 8, and AMC 10. My specialized curriculum is designed to build both fundamental skills and advanced problem-solving techniques across key mathematical domains.

Competition Focus Areas

Math Kangaroo (Grades 1-12)

• Number Theory: Prime factorization, divisibility rules, modular arithmetic

• Geometry: Spatial reasoning, shapes, measurements, transformations

• Logic & Puzzles: Pattern recognition, logical deduction

• Combinatorics: Basic counting principles, permutations

• Data Analysis: Reading graphs, basic probability concepts

MathCounts (Grades 6-8)

• Algebra: Linear equations, systems of equations, inequalities

• Counting & Probability: Fundamental counting principle, expected value

• Geometry & Measurement: Area, perimeter, volume, coordinate geometry

• Number Theory: GCD, LCM, prime factorization, divisibility tests

• Problem-Solving Strategies: Working backward, testing cases, drawing diagrams

AMC 8 (Grades 8 and below)

• Pre-Algebra & Algebra: Equations, functions, sequences, patterns

• Geometry: Angles, triangles, quadrilaterals, circles, 3D figures

• Counting & Probability: Tree diagrams, combinations, geometric probability

• Problem-Solving: Multiple solution paths, mathematical insight, time management

• Number Theory: Bases, Diophantine equations, divisibility properties

AMC 10 (Grades 10 and below)

• Advanced Algebra: Quadratics, polynomials, functional equations

• Sequences & Series: Arithmetic, geometric, recursive sequences

• Complex Geometry: Circle geometry, coordinate methods, transformations

• Advanced Counting: PIE, stars and bars, combinatorial identities

• Intermediate Number Theory: Fermat's little theorem, Chinese remainder theorem

• Competition Tactics: Efficient problem selection, strategic guessing, time allocation

Tutoring Methodology

My approach combines:

• Systematic content coverage based on competition syllabi

• Targeted practice with past competition problems

• Timed mock tests to build exam familiarity

• Strategic thinking and mathematical creativity development

• Personalized feedback and progress tracking
