Math-M-Addicts is able to offer some of the most advanced math curriculum to middle and high school students available in NYC because the founders and many of the teachers themselves are former math Olympiad contestants and winners. Many of our alumni credit Math-M-Addicts as being the most rewarding and challenging learning experience of their academic lives. For some, MMA inspired them to pursue STEM majors in college and in...
