Our Mission
The three-fold mission of Math Project is to:
- Eradicate fear of math within a child;
- Boost a child’s motivation and mastery of math; and
- Through math, empower the child with life skills, such as, critical thinking, striving for excellence, reasoning & problem-solving
OUR STORY
Math Project started as a math literacy program for school-going children of the Greater Toronto Area. In 2010, as soon as the founder Shehreen Zaman reached the milestone of obtaining the Associate of Society of Actuaries (ASA) designation, she founded Math Project with the intention to give back the gift of education that had empowered her up to that point. Her motivation was to promote “out of the box” thinking among children by preparing them for international math contests.
