About Us Math Potentials is an education enrichment organization that teaches children to enjoy and experience success in doing mathematics and sciences. Dr. Natasa Sirotic and Dr. Klaus Hoechsmann founded Math Potentials in 2000, with the support of the Pacific Institute for the Mathematical Sciences. It was their extraordinary passion for math education, and desire to open students’ eyes to how meaningful and fulfilling mathematics can be, that made their first year, with just 30 students, such a success.
Making Math and Science Meaningful Math Potentials offers enriched math and science education in Vancouver and teaches children to enjoy and experience success in the learning of these subjects. Some kids have difficulties with math and science in school when they are taught to memorize rather than learn for understanding. We eliminate these difficulties by teaching conceptually, for understanding. Our teachers, who have expertise in both subject-matter and teaching.
Math Circles The Math Circles Program was initiated by teachers and mathematicians through the support of the Pacific Institute of Mathematics Sciences (PIMS) at UBC. They saw that students were entering university inadequately prepared for the big jump between high school and university math, and set out to change this. Math Circles started in UBC in the 2000/2001 school year with only two classes in one campus. It has since grown to six campuses in Metro Vancouver, serving 700 students.
Science Circles Science Circles is an enrichment program where students develop their curiosity about the world and the scientific way of thought needed to understand the natural phenomena of the physical world. The approach is to seamlessly integrate math and science, and learn to use mathematics as a tool for doing science. Students will engage with fun scientific experiments and projects using data collection sensors, computer simulations, video cameras, and smartphone applications.
