Students studying together at a library table

G10–12 Math Lab

Your child practices school math until they can solve and explain it on their own, then moves on to AP math and competition math.

In grades 10–11, students learn the Korean high school courses Common Math 1 and 2, Algebra, and Calculus, along with the AP, IB, and A Level units taught at the same stage.

Where your child starts depends on their goal

Students with strong school math start at a harder level.

  • GoalAP, IB, or A Level math

    What we look at first
    We check the course and level your child takes at school and the units they've already covered.
  • GoalKorean school grades and the CSAT (Korea's college entrance exam)

    What we look at first
    We check how far ahead and how deep to go, which units are weak, and how your child handles calculation and geometry problems.
  • GoalAdvanced and competition problems

    What we look at first
    We check whether your child can solve school math on their own and explain it.
    Where to go next
    See Elite Math levels
  • GoalProof writing and gifted math camps

    What we look at first
    We ask which your child wants to do: proof writing, math solution essays, or gifted camp prep.

From school math to AP and competition math

What each level covers
  1. School MathematicsSchool courses and test prep, plus writing out solutions and proofs
  2. Advanced MathematicsAlgebra, Geometry
  3. Precalculus · Calculus · APAP Precalculus, AP Calculus
  4. Competition MathematicsUKMT, AMC, AIME, and olympiad-level problems

In each unit, your child solves basic to advanced problems

Working through a unit, step by step

  1. Check the concept
  2. Basic problem types
  3. Applied problems
  4. Advanced problems
  5. Check again

Your child redoes problems they got wrong until they can solve them alone

On problem types where they get stuck, your child repeats this cycle. A type is done only when they can solve it without help and explain the solution.

The cycle your child repeats on a problem type until they can solve it alone

From the answer to a full proof

Even after getting the answer right, your child writes out why the solution works and what supports it.

Four steps: find the answer, explain why they chose that method, write the reason behind each step, and write the whole solution as a complete proof
  1. Step: ANSWER: Find the answer

    At this step, your child: Reads the conditions, sets up an equation, and finds the answer.

  2. Step: REASON: Explain why they chose that method

    At this step, your child: Explains in their own words why they picked the method they used.

  3. Step: JUSTIFY: Write the reason behind each step

    At this step, your child: Writes down, step by step, why each equation holds.

  4. Step: PROVE: Write the whole solution as a complete proof

    At this step, your child: Links the reasons from the earlier steps and writes the solution from start to finish with no gaps.
