UPDATE: The First In Math® online programme reached another landmark this week—students have correctly solved 18 BILLION maths problems to date. That is the equivalent of 50 million hours, or 5,708 years of non-stop, around-the-clock maths practice!

First In Math creator Mr. Robert Sun explains that these figures point to a high degree of involvement, and are indicative of how much students enjoy the educational website. “For any online learning platform to be truly effective, it must invite the child to practice outside of school,” says Sun. “With engagement, students take ownership and put in the time that is essential to master concepts, and make real progress in maths.”
Mr. Sun, who will visit India in December, has created award-winning educational solutions that have helped more than 20 million students worldwide since 1988. He continues to inspire young students to connect with the world of numbers and move on to excel in the fields of mathematics and science.
