Nova Math Camp offers short duration math camps to middle and high school students in Northern Virginia. Our instructors are professionals - usually PhDs in their area of expertise who share a passion for math and passing skills to the next generation.
Novamathcamp is designed for rising 7th–10th graders who are curious and passionate about exploring the beauty of mathematics beyond the standard K–12 curriculum. The emphasis is on not just memorizing rote formula, but to visualize math and relate concepts to every day problems.
Each day, students will journey through time and across civilizations, discovering some of the most fascinating mathematical ideas—from ancient breakthroughs to modern innovations. Along the way, they'll dive into key topics in geometry, number theory, algebra, and trigonometry.
Daily sessions include guest lectures, interactive hands-on activities, and group projects centered around rich Olympiad-style challenges and delightful puzzles—all designed to spark curiosity and deepen mathematical understanding.
Will it prepare me for SAT?
The camp focuses on building and enhancing fundamental knowledge of algebra, geometry and trigonomety and visualize the concepts. Students will emerge much more interested in math, understnd middle school math much better, and be better prepared to participate and solve problems in the Math olympiads and SAT type tests.
Are these in person or virtual?
All our camps are in-person to offer the students live, immersive experience, and so as to connect with their peers. The in-person camp also offers valuable interaction with our instructors, and avenues for instantly resolving any queries or doubts.
These camps are offered in multiple locations in Haymarket, Aldie and South Riding neighbourhoods.
Will there be groups?
Rising 7th, 8th and 9th graders form one group, and rising 10th and 11th graders form another group.
Since the emphasis is on helping to visualize math in a way they may not have studied, all students will be carrying their laptops or tablets during the course duration.
What does it cost to attend?
The tuition for the camps is mentioned under the camp details section.
