The names of AoPS courses have been streamlined.

Beast Academy 5 now is followed by Math 6.
It is still pre-algebra textbook. The textbooks are the same. To better understand the new course naming, check AoPS recommended course map https://artofproblemsolving.com/school/recommendations

I have some in person and over zoom openings. Also, feel free to contact me if you want to better understand AoPS curriculum and methodology.

Enjoy your summer!

To determine where a student should start within our subject course curriculum, please view the appropriate section below and refer to the diagnostic tests for each individual course.
