Pre-algebra 1 (Self-Paced)
Video Lessons with Lecture Notes and Assignments, One-year Access
The Prealgebra course is divided into two parts and this course covers the material from the first part. The course is intended to be beneficial for students seeking to excel in their school math curriculum as well as for those aiming to excel in math competitions. Although the course is based on the AoPS Prealgebra textbook, it is differentiated by Dr. Shi's distinctive teaching style. Below are some of the hallmark features of the course and Dr. Shi's instructional approach.
We recommend that students have completed an elementary school math curriculum or a similar program such as Beast Academy, covering grades 1-4, prior to enrolling in our program. This will ensure that students have a foundational understanding of mathematical concepts and skills needed for the program.

Dr. Shi has added exclusive, enriched content to the materials covered by the AoPS book to increase the effectiveness of learning. The chapters that are particularly enhanced by the added content are marked with a star (*) symbol. This enriched content goes beyond the scope and depth of the AoPS book. It helps students establish a stronger foundation in pre-algebra, promoting a deeper understanding of the subject matter. The enriched content can be particularly beneficial for students who aspire to set a solid foundation in algebra for the AMC 8 and AMC 10/12 competitions.
