RSM's unique methodology, inspired by elite mathematical schools, provides a continuous K-12 curriculum designed to cultivate a deep mathematical foundation, intellect, and character.
The Russian School of Mathematics (RSM) Summer Program offers K-12 students an opportunity to reinforce their math knowledge, prepare for the upcoming school year, and engage in challenging math competition courses. The program aims to prevent summer learning loss and spark an early interest in mathematics through a unique methodology. Students develop abstract thinking, reasoning ability, and problem-solving skills by exploring numbers, geometric shapes, logical puzzles, and patterns. The curriculum, inspired by elite mathematical schools, focuses on building a deep understanding of arithmetic operations, properties of numbers, and higher-level reasoning. Depending on the program, students may also participate in STEAM activities, including science, engineering, coding, chess, and art. Classes are designed to foster independent work skills through individual and group activities, encouraging students to create strategies for solving complex problems.
A typical day involves interactive lessons led by an expert teacher in a classroom setting, with a focus on developing abstract thinking, reasoning, and problem-solving skills through individual and group work. Some programs may also include engaging, hands-on activities in science, engineering, coding, chess, and art.
The program is best for K-12 students looking to strengthen their math fundamentals, prepare for the upcoming school year, or seek additional challenges through math competition courses.
