Studio of Engaging Math does not have upcoming sessions on ActivityHero right now. We can send you an email when they do.
Our curriculum is based on the best of Russian, American and Singapore pedagogical traditions, which emphasize reasoning over memorization. Asking “why” encourages students to dig deeper, and focus on the underlying principles. Students develop critical thinking skills and are able to think creatively in order to solve complex, non-linear problems.Our program is tailored to fit the needs and interests of our students. Within each group, students have similar knowledge and exposure to math. This allows us to cover a wide range of topics, and introduce students to challenging material without leaving anyone behind. Having five different levels for every grade helps us to find the right group for every student.

Founder and Educational Director of the Studio. Mrs. Itina has over 30 years in experience of teaching mathematics to children of different ages – from kindergarten to high school. She has developed and perfected the unique methodology used in our studio. In Russia her elementary school textbooks were endorsed by the Ministry of education and are still in use in many schools across the country. The textbooks were awarded the prize for “Best Mathematics Textbooks for the Elementary Schools of the New Generation”. These textbook are currently in use in many elementary schools across Russia. In 2013, Ms Itina’s books were translated into Norwegian, and are now being tested in Norway. Ms Itina holds an M.S. degree in Applied Mathematics.
