The teacher, Chris Bolognese, is a friend of mine. He's brilliant at math and also a musician. He tutors a number of @trianglemath.bsky.social students; I'm excited that he's developing and teaching these classes for Mathematics Institute of the Triangle! #mtbos #iteachmath #mathCompetition #AMC
Our competition math class starts on Wednesday! Contact us via trianglemathinstitute.com to register; we likely will close registration this weekend for AMC 10/12 test prep class (test is Nov 5 or 13; our class goes Sep 9, 16, 23, 30, Oct 7, 14, 21, 28, and Nov 4). AMC 8 class starts Nov 11. #mtbos

My class at @trianglemath.bsky.social is ready for tomorrow's level 2 & algebra. For prealgebra & up. student binders have space for notes/homework, then each week's in-class problems & solns, then 'hardest problems' where students carefully document & write their own reference #mtbos #iteachmath
