Hey, that's really awesome. It's really nice to hear that you're making a difference! Good luck with the project! > Maybe host a math contest forum for working adults where we can work on interesting integrals & suchlike :) I'm sure you must know about https://artofproblemsolving.com/community https://artofproblemsolving.com/community They have a huge collection of problems, and sometimes solutions. I'm somewhat curious about the logistics of the courses. How many students are in your classes? Do you run one-on-ones online? And are they really one-on-one, i.e. only one student at a time? Or is it more like office-hours? Also how much time does it take you weekly to prepare the course materials and to check the homeworks?

thanks! yeah aops is the mother ship, i am just plying a little ferry. my problem sets come from irodov, loney, hall and knight. These are 100+ year old classics, can get them off libgen. during covid i did zoom. nowadays the students just drop in on weekends. i don’t really prepare, most of this is high school math and thankfully my math muscles haven’t atrophied. honestly, i like the midwest. yes people are poor and the public school system is grossly underfunded. but the kids want to learn and i feel i am making a difference teaching them competition math. there’s no money in it, that’s forsure. but it makes me happy.
