VOLUNTEERING OPPORTUNITY OPEN TO HIGH/MIDDLE SCHOOLERS

by im_space_cadet, Apr 21, 2025, 2:42 PM

Hi everyone!
Do you specialize in contest math? Do you have a passion for teaching? Do you want to help leverage those college apps? Well, I have something for all of you.

I am im_space_cadet, and during the fall of last year, I opened my non-profit DeltaMathPrep which teaches students preparing for contest math the problem-solving skills they need in order to succeed at these competitions. Currently, we are very much understaffed and would greatly appreciate the help of more tutors on our platform.

Each week on Saturday and Wednesday, we meet once for each competition: Wednesday for AMC 8 and Saturday for AMC 10 and we go over a past year paper for the entire class. On both of these days, we meet at 9PM EST in the night.

This is a great opportunity for anyone who is looking to have a solid activity to add to their college resumes that requires low effort from tutors and is very flexible with regards to time.

This is the link to our non-profit for anyone who would like to view our initiative:

If you are interested in this opportunity, please send me a DM on AoPS or respond to this post expressing your interest. I look forward to having you all on the team!

Thanks,
im_space_cadet

What's the easiest proof-based math competition?

by Muu9, Apr 21, 2025, 2:16 PM

In terms of the difficulty of the questions, not the level of competition. There's USAJMO, but surely there must be countries with less developed competitive math scenes whose Olympiads are easier.

Here I'm going to explain the way to obtain the mind from the body or vice versa. Apparently it's not the norm that people just know how to do this?

I'm fascinated by small pieces of food. A chunk of sugar, a chocolate kiss, a kernel of corn, a tiny piece of pasta... Sorry, I'm writing incoherently and that doesn't matter. The point is that today, I found this normal chunk of sugar except somebody had poked a bunch of tiny cavities in it!

Hey there, welcome to my other AoPS blog. Sorry everything is so incomplete — I'm really bad at naming my posts and even this blog itself. Maybe you should read my other blog instead.
