What do we mean by “Problem Solving”?
The idea to take a hard problem you’ve never seen before, break it up into manageable pieces, and then try different approaches to solve each piece.
An Engaging Problem-Solving Approach
Presenting students with unfamiliar problems and guide them through the problem-solving process.
Empowering Independent Discovery
Encourage independent and collaborative discovery of concepts instead of just presenting rules.
Guided Whole-Class Discussions
Engage in whole-class discussions with guiding questions to help students find solutions.
Fostering Problem-Solving Skills
Challenge students with problems that require combining known concepts to unveil new understandings, fostering problem-solving skills and adaptability.
Course Format
Class Structure
Our two-week camps meet for three hours per day and can be easily scheduled back-to-back for a full day experience.
Student Collaboration
Students join a problem solving community of like-minded peers to tackle challenging problems and topics.
Expansive Curriculum
In addition to practicing core concepts from the academic year, students will also discover new topics beyond the standard curriculum.
Quality Instructors
Summer camps are taught by the same expert instructors that guide students through our academic year courses.
“Just give it a try and let your child know what success feels like. The pay off is in learning deep and learning without constraints of grades. This program teaches Problem Solving, Writing, Logic and gives a child resilience through failure and finally success. There is nothing like it. ”

“Isaac has never really sparked on literature and language like he has done with math -- until your classes and camps. He's actually engaged and curious and interacting and excited. It makes my heart glad. I'm so thankful to you for opening his eyes to the fact that he can be both “a math guy” and “a language arts guy” too. Thank you for helping our boy discover something about himself.”
