Steven Liu毕业于麻省理工学院， 业余时间，他在Diablo Vista Middle school 和EDU 捷足学院帮助中小学生辅导美国数学协会(MAA) 组织的初中数学竞赛AMC 8. 在Steven的辅导下，近两年，先后有六位同学获得AMC8的全国范围二等奖和鼓励奖。 这些同学来自三谷地区的公立学校和私立学校。 

AMC8学习不同于国内的奥林匹克数学竞赛。AMC8的目的是把学生课堂学习的知识点，用到实际的问题中。在实际学习中，Steven强调逻辑思考的重要性，启发学生从一个侦探的角色出发， 从蛛丝马迹中发现解决数学问题，而不是要求学生套用公式。

更重要的是， 通过AMC8的学习，增加学生在数学方面的兴趣及学习数 学的热情，促进学生学习中学数学必修课程之外的数学内容，增强问题解决的能力。



More About AMC 8 

The AMC 8 is a 25-question, 40-minute, multiple choice examination in middle school mathematics designed to promote the development and enhancement of problem-solving skills. The contest is held in November every year. 

Purpose of the AMC 8 


The examination provides an opportunity to apply the concepts taught at the junior high level to problems which not only range from easy to difficult but also cover a wide range of applications. Many problems are designed to challenge students and to offer problem solving experiences beyond those provided in most junior high school mathematics classes. High scoring students are invited to participate in the AMC 10. A special purpose of the AMC 8 is to demonstrate the broad range of topics available for the junior high school mathematics curriculum. This is done by competencies. The AMC 8 has the potential to increase the perceptions of the importance of problem solving activities in the mathematics curriculum by stimulating these activities both preceding and following the examination —specifically by studying the solutions manual. 

Steven Liu’s background
