RSM Belmont

💫Behind every confident math student is a teacher who knows how to inspire, challenge, and support them.

Our teachers are at the heart of the RSM community. With backgrounds in mathematics or related fields and passion for the subject, they help students develop deep understanding, build confidence, and discover the joy of learning.📚

🎒Meet three of our exceptional educators – Kate Pertsovsky, Dmitrii Trushchin, and Irena Burmistrovich – and discover what inspires their work with students in our newest blog post: https://gqr.sh/XPRu

🌟Meet Daniil Shangin! 🌟

For 6 years, Daniil has been part of RSM, and his dedication continues to shine. This year, he took on AMC 8, IMC, and Noetic Spring, proving once again that consistency and hard work pay off.

Daniil's secret? A smart, focused approach to studying. He believes in working strategically, not just harder.

🚀His advice to other students:
"Solving past years' exams, pinpointing problems that indicate knowledge gaps, then closing these gaps with extra practice are the keys to success."

This is the kind of mindset we are always proud to celebrate at RSM, students who take responsibility for their own progress and never shy away from a challenge.💫

Congratulations, Daniil, on 6 amazing years with RSM! We're so proud of you and excited to see what's next. 🎉

💫Lucas Wang has been with RSM for 4 years, and this year he has taken on an impressive lineup of competitions, including AMC 8, IMC, RSM Olympiad, Math Kangaroo, MOEMS E, Noetic, and CML.

What sets Lucas apart is his mindset. He approaches every problem with focus and discipline, always striving to get things exactly right.🚀

When asked his advice, Lucas kept it straightforward:

"I emphasize the importance of accuracy and efficiency."

☀️It's a simple philosophy, but a powerful one. For Lucas, success in math isn't just about knowing the answer, it's about getting there the right way, every time.

Congratulations, Lucas! We can't wait to see what you accomplish next!🎉

At RSM, every student's journey is unique, and we are always excited to see where it leads.

Meet Aastha Gupta, an RSM alumna whose passion for learning continued well beyond the classroom. Aastha earned her undergraduate degree from The Ohio State University, followed by both a Master's degree and an MBA from the University of Florida.

Looking back, Aastha credits RSM with giving her a strong mathematical foundation that helped her excel in AP Calculus BC, earning college credit and allowing her to skip a calculus course in college.

One of her favorite memories is learning with Mrs. Bock:

"She was always so friendly and made sure you understood everything every step of the way. She explained concepts in multiple ways, so everything always made sense."

Aastha especially appreciated RSM's small class sizes and supportive learning environment, which helped her develop confidence in mathematics that stayed with her through college.

Her advice for current RSM students is simple but meaningful:
"Grades aren't everything! They're important, but it's okay to fall. As long as you pick yourself back up again."

Thank you, Aastha, for sharing your story with the RSM community. We are proud of all you have accomplished and wish you continued success in the future.

Summer is the perfect time to pause and ask: Does my child have enough time to daydream, explore, and simply play?

In a world of packed schedules and endless activities, children still need time to be kids, to imagine, create, socialize, and grow through both structured experiences and free play.

📚 Can you believe it? Just one week left of Summer School! 📚

Our students have spent the summer sharpening their math skills, building confidence, and tackling new challenges - and the progress has been amazing to see! 🧮✨

We're so proud of all the hard work this summer, and we can't wait to welcome everyone back to class this fall! 🍂

🚀Dean Cardner's passion for mathematics and engineering has taken him to one of the most exciting places imaginable, NASA!

After joining RSM in 2nd grade and spending years building his mathematical foundation, Dean is now a rising junior at the Georgia Institute of Technology, studying aerospace engineering.🔧

This year, Dean completed an internship at NASA's Johnson Space Center in Houston, where he tested astronaut spacesuit fit, and is now interning at NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Alabama, contributing to valve testing for aerospace systems.

🏆Dean's achievements reflect years of hard work, determination, and an unwavering curiosity about how things work. We are incredibly proud to celebrate his success and look forward to following his journey.
