Math
We start with concepts of numbers and the real number line, concentrating on the sets of natural numbers, whole numbers, and integers. We build computational skills and intuitive understanding of major properties of operations (commutative, associative, distributive). We go into set theory, Venn diagrams, concepts of variable and simple equations, word problems, and the overall language of math.

Chess
The Gulko Chess Academy has developed very effective chess education programs for adults and children. The Academy was founded by International Chess Grandmasters Boris and Anna Gulko. Both have been chess champions in both the former Soviet Union and the United States. The inexhaustible possibilities of chess, which combines strict logic with an unlimited scope of imagination, have made the game a part of our cultural heritage. Chess helps the mind stretch and grow in a fun way. It increases problem-solving skills and improves logic and concentration.
