Beatrice Pang“Brain Builders: Small-Group, Advanced Math & Logic Enrichment by Descartes Learning Club (Founded by a Stanford Alumna and Designed in Collaboration with a Stanford Math Professor)”Founded by a Stanford alumna and designed in collaboration with a Stanford math professor and a former coach of the Chinese International Mathematical Olympiad (IMO) Team, Descartes Learning Club offers a nurturing and rigorous math and logic enrichment program. Our program goes beyond standard K-12 math to broaden and deepen students’ math knowledge, immersing students in abstract mathematical concepts, logical reasoning, and creative problem-solving. We distinguish ourselves from other math enrichment programs through: 1) Exceptionally small class sizes with 3-6 students grouped by proficiency level featuring individualized guidance and appropriately challenging content, 2) Expert Instructors, selected from over 50 applicants per hire based on solid math and teaching backgrounds, trained in evidence-based math pedagogy 3) Engaging and rigorous curriculum: Our lessons emphasize logical reasoning, abstract thinking, and a love for mathematics—fostered through rich puzzles, games, and storytelling that challenge students at all levels. The core element of this curriculum offered during the school year is Beast Academy, published by Art of Problem Solving. We also interweave level-appropriate curated Math Circle (e.g., Berkeley Math Circle, Stanford Math Circle) activities and math contest topics.

Brain Builders: Small-Group, Advanced Math & Logic Enrichment by Descartes Learning Club
by Beatrice Pang
DescriptionFounded by a Stanford alumna and developed in collaboration with a Stanford math professor and a former coach of the Chinese International Mathematical Olympiad (IMO) Team, Descartes Learning Club offers a nurturing yet rigorous math and logic enrichment program. We go beyond standard K–12 math to broaden and deepen students’ knowledge, immersing them in abstract concepts, logical reasoning, and creative problem-solving. What Sets Us Apart: 1) Exceptionally Low Student-to-Instructor Ratio and Individualized Attention: 3–6 students per instructor grouped by proficiency, ensuring individualized guidance and appropriately challenging content. 2) Expert Instructors: Selected from 50+ applicants per hire for strong math and teaching backgrounds, trained in evidence-based math pedagogy. 3) Engaging & Rigorous Curriculum: Lessons emphasize logical reasoning, abstract thinking, and a love of mathematics through rich puzzles, games, and storytelling. Our school-year core is Beast Academy (by Art of Problem Solving), complemented by curated Math Circle activities (e.g., Berkeley Math Circle, Stanford Math Circle) and math contest topics. - View our curriculum overview here: bit.ly/dlc-standard-curriculum - Explore sample lessons here: bit.ly/dlc-sample-lessons Descartes has grown rapidly through word-of-mouth and now partners with over a dozen leading San Francisco and Bay Area schools. 📍 View our partner schools: bit.ly/dlc-locations 💬 Parent testimonials: bit.ly/dlc-testimonials To learn more, visit www.descarteslearningclub.com or email Beatrice, DLC’s founder, at info@descarteslearningclub.com.
