Our instructors have mixed Math curriculum with many interesting elements to help our students gain the interests in Math and improve their understanding of various Math concepts and equations. Our unique Math course focuses on building the abilities of problem-solving and logical thinking, which will help students in their future learning journey. This Math-focused course contains, but not limited to, following topics:

• Ontario grade 4 math curriculum
• Beaver Computing Challenge (BCC) from University of Waterloo
