This school year, help your student get ahead — not just with academic concepts, but with problem solving skills that will help them succeed beyond the classroom. AoPS Academy’s after-school enrichment focuses on advanced problem solving and deep conceptual understanding — not rote memorization.
Art of Problem Solving Encourages Productive Struggle
Since 1993, Art of Problem Solving has trained over 1 million top students worldwide to approach hard problems by breaking them down into familiar parts — transforming how students think. In our classrooms, students lead the discovery process, guided by expert instructors, as they develop critical skills in:
- critical thinking
- active learning
- constructive collaboration
- effective communication
These skills help students not only in the classroom, but in effectively navigating any academic or career path they choose.
Meet Our Expert Instructors
The right instructor at the right time can transform students’ perspectives and lives. The same instructor works with the same cohort throughout the year, developing strong relationships and understanding of their students’ strengths and goals. Once outstanding students themselves, AoPS instructors regularly explore new methods to help our students reach their fullest potential.
Connect With Like-Minded Peers Every Week
Learning is most effective when done collaboratively. Our students don’t just work together in class, they socialize through movie nights, puzzle events, seasonal festivals, and more!
