Math Teacher - Part - Time - Competition Program

RSM's unique approach develops critical thinking and has built excellence in math since 1997. Recently featured by NPR and the Atlantic magazine as one of the players in the "Math Revolution" and ranked one of the best schools in the world by the Johns Hopkins Center for Talented Youth, RSM helps children of all levels build a solid math foundation and develop their critical-thinking and problem-solving skills.

For nearly two decades, RSM students have consistently achieved remarkable scores on standardized tests and in national and international math competitions, although attaining top test scores is just one of the benefits of our program. RSM helps students of all levels become more confident in math and develop a deeper understanding of the subject.

The Math Competition Program (MCP) is an RSM program designed for students interested in advanced mathematical topics and participating in math contests. MCP curriculum builds on the RSM curriculum, and focuses on the development of intellectual agility and the deep exploration of higher-level concepts. We do not teach "tricks" for competing well, but rather train students to strategically use their fundamental mathematical knowledge.
