Two Tracks. One Clear Path Forward.
Math Foundations (MF) builds the school math base. Math Competition (MC) teaches competition math techniques. Here is exactly what each program covers, who it is for, and how they fit together.
Every capable student deserves the chance to discover what they can do. Cost should never be the reason: non-profit community seats are available for those who otherwise couldn’t afford this kind of coaching.
MF 8
Our complete Grade 7–8 school math curriculum, built for students in grades 6–7.
MC 1
MC 1 pairs with MF 8, taken together or after: competition math never gets ahead of your school math foundation.
A competition class is only taken alongside or after its matching foundations class: MC 1 with or after MF 8.
Solid School Math Curriculum
The math basics. Competition math stands on this.
Grade 7–8 school math, aligned to Quebec, Ontario & US Common Core standards.
Integers, fractions, decimals & percents, exponents & scientific notation, algebraic expressions, equations & inequalities, ratios & rates, linear relations & slope, functions, and an intro to systems of equations.
Roots & real numbers, angles & triangles, area of polygons & circles, the Pythagorean theorem, congruence, similarity & transformations, 3D solids, surface area & volume, probability & statistics.
Grade 9-10 school math, aligned to Quebec, Ontario & US Common Core: the harder stuff school throws at you.
Exponent laws, polynomials & factoring, rational expressions, equations of lines, systems of equations & inequalities, radicals, and quadratics: the quadratic formula, parabolas & completing the square.
Functions & transformations, exponential, piecewise & inverse functions, analytic geometry, congruence & similarity proofs, circle geometry, and trigonometry through the sine & cosine laws, plus statistics & probability.
Competition Math Techniques
Strategy, pattern recognition, and problem-solving speed, taught by someone who competes. My goal is to help every student uncover real talent for contests, not just chase a score.
Contest specific strategies, concepts, and formulas.
Counting techniques & inclusion–exclusion, divisibility, primes, GCD/LCM, units digits & bases, then contest algebra: equations, ratios, rates & sequences. Targets: Kangaroo, AQJM.
Coordinate geometry, logic puzzles, pigeonhole & optimization, then full geometry: angle chasing through circles & 3D, plus probability & statistics. Targets: Gauss, AMC 8.
The next level up after MC 1, taken alongside or after MF 10.
Weighted averages, modular arithmetic & Diophantine equations, counting techniques: inclusion–exclusion, stars & bars, pigeonhole & the binomial theorem, plus recursion & probability.
Vieta’s & special factorizations, polynomials, sequences & series, inequalities & functional equations, then advanced geometry: circles, triangle techniques, 3D & the shoelace formula. Targets: AMC 10, Pascal/Cayley.
Getting Into the Right High School
Delivered through Tutela (tutelamtl.ca), a student-run tutoring group I co-founded with friends. Tutela covers all three subjects tested on Quebec admission exams: French, English, and Math. I teach the math portion myself. Sign up through Tutela for the full bundle and you are matched with French and English tutors too.
Math only
French + English + Math bundle via Tutela. (Save $5/class)
Not Sure Where to Start?
Please contact me so we can place you at the right level from day one!
For Math Foundations (MF)
I will send you a short PDF diagnostic covering current-grade school math. It checks two things: whether you are ready for the class, and whether you already know some of the material. Our goal is to start you at exactly the right point.
For Math Competitions (MC)
Same school-math foundation check, plus a handful of easy contest-style questions (around AMC 8 level) to evaluate where you currently sit on the competition side.
Summit Math runs as a real business. Regular tuition keeps it going, but a meaningful number of seats in every regular class are set aside as non-profit community seats: the exact same class, fully covered, for students who otherwise couldn’t afford this kind of coaching. This isn’t a trial or a separate program: students in these seats sit in the same classes, get the same materials and have the same expectations. If cost is what’s holding you back, tell me that when you contact me. I’d rather find a way to make it work than watch a capable student miss the chance to discover what they’re capable of.
