Russian Math Tutors

BYOM is "Russian Math.” Only, it's not the "Russian Math" that parents in the U.S. usually think of when they hear those words. One of the achievements of the Soviet Union was that they took math and math education very seriously, and they developed a well-deserved reputation as having some of the best mathematicians in the world. What is usually presented as "Russian Math" in the U.S. though is not the famous program that produced so many great mathematicians, but rather a program that has been watered down over the last 20 years by other math traditions, modified to be more like different U.S./UK-based curriculums, and there is very little of the authentic "Russian Math" left in it. In truth, the current programs taught in schools in Russia today suffer from the same ailment. Therefore, many parents in Russia enroll their children in after-school programs, where teachers are free to teach what they want and what they have determined is the best program for students. Our program BYOM brings U.S. students the genuine "Soviet Math,” which was first conceived by great Soviet Educators like Andrey Kiselev and Georgy Dorofeev. This is one of the most advanced programs globally and is used in Russia and former CIS countries as the primary program for extra-curricular math. It was developed over 50 years by the top Soviet and Russian mathematicians, the same ones who sent the first man into space! One of these mathematicians is Lyudmila Georgievna Peterson, who developed the "Build Your Own Math" program.
