Peninsula Math Circle is a new course that Connor Leong (a junior at BHS and one of only 30 students nationwide to qualify for the USA International Math Olympiad Team Selection Group) and Kevin Chu (a parent coach of Burlingame’s math team) are offering through Burlingame Parks & Recreation this fall.
The course is intended for 7th-9th graders (though 10th graders who are just getting into competition math are welcome). The fall sessions will be focused on math competition topics that are common on middle school competitions (AMC 8, MATHCOUNTS) and high school competitions (AMC 10/12). The sessions are appropriate for any student who wants to improve their problem-solving skills and are enthusiastic about learning math beyond what’s taught in school (for instance, number theory, combinatorics, advanced algebra, and advanced geometry).
