[quote=Anonymous]Beast Academy multi-year parent-user here. OP: As you are probably aware, Beast Academy is not a game. It is is a cute name for AoPS (Art of Problem Solving) math curriculum for ES students - one of the most comprehensive math curriculums that are available for ES age kids. The program and courses are tough, engaging and thorough and, as things progress, extremely challenging. Kids who enjoy this type of rigor go to International Math Competitions and are “best of the best”. I am not saying all this to scare you, just to make sure you are aware that this is not a math-game or math-review type of curriculum. If you want to do it properly, it requires lots of commitment. However, if your child loves math, there is no stronger and more fun math program that I have found. Earlier you start, the better. If you are getting the books, definitely get the online subscription as well. It is well worth it. They also offer online group classes and in-person classes (Vienna only near us). Let me know if you have any specific questions, I would be happy to answer. I kept looking for the “right” math curriculum for my kids and started Beast Academy at the end of the second grade. I wish I started earlier.[/quote]
