Free Webinars
I regularly run three types of free webinar, and each one finishes with an open Q&A. All webinars are recorded and automatically sent after each webinar, and you can watch a recording of each one at any time.
All presented live with Dr Kevin Olding. If there are no live dates scheduled at the moment, you can still watch the most recent recording of any of the webinars below, and sign up above to hear when new live dates are announced.
11+ Maths Exams Explained
In this webinar I’ll talk through the structure and topics for 11+ maths papers, and when and how to prepare to ensure success. I wrote the 11+ paper for four years for a leading London independent school and have prepared students successfully for all of the top schools. Whether you’re working with a tutor or managing the process yourself, you’ll come away with a clear plan.
Mathsaurus Live Classes and Online Courses
Come along to this webinar to learn more about all of the courses and classes on offer at Mathsaurus, including our self-paced and live-taught courses and classes for maths challenges and Olympiads, 11+, GCSE and A-Level maths and more. The session always ends with a Q&A where you can ask any questions about Mathsaurus or for advice about helping students aged 7-18 through any aspect of maths.
Maths Challenges and Olympiads Explained
In this free information session, Kevin will tell you everything you need to know about Maths Challenges and Olympiads, from the First and Primary Challenges to the Junior, Intermediate and Senior competitions and the follow-on Kangaroo and Olympiad rounds.
You’ll learn what they are and why they are such a powerful tool to help students improve at maths and problem-solving. We’ll talk about the ways they are different from the usual sort of maths students cover at school, and how you can best help your children prepare to achieve Gold certificates and medals.
