Thanks so much to my instructor for putting up with all the questions and missed deadlines. I honestly learned so much, and hopefully enough to pass the AP exam. I definitely had to push myself to keep up with the workload on top of my school, and hobbies, but I think that's part of it too. But honestly, with the right materials and explanations, calculus 1 is not that bad.

I have enjoyed this course, and it has proven to be more challenging than I expected. I definitely should not have taken two CTM AP courses at the same time, as well as a third, AP Environmental Science course in school. Even if my final AP exam score will be unsatisfactory, I know this course taught me a lot of interesting mathematics, for which I hope to find a use in the future.

Enjoy summer vacation, and good bye!

This course was really fun, it got me to be consistent, which is a good trait to have. Im glad that I learned and condensed the matter of calculus in my head, because i love quantum physics and one could suffer seeing path integrals or perturbations of hamiltonian without having knowledge of series or integrals (one suffers anyways). Also these lessons came with some droplets of intimidation, where I thought I knew more, than i really knew, but the nature/science is about that and that is what makes us go further..

Math is a beatiful subject and its pretty amazing that your organisation provides chance for students in high school to study this, because that is a step forward to make math great again between young people whose majority of experiences with math are flavoured by boredom, anger, not understood intimidation. Thank you for enlightenment!

Díky CTM Online programu jsem měl možnost během středoškolského studia absolvovat online kurzy matematiky zaštítěné CTY při univerzitě Johnse Hopkinse v USA. Ve druháku jsem začal kurzem Honors Pre-Calculus, kde jsem se naučil myslet matematicky a hledat za každým vzorcem jeho původ a pravý význam. Ve třeťáku jsem pak pokračoval kurzem AP Calculus BC, který mi dal velmi solidní základy diferenciálního a integrálního počtu, na kterých jsem mohl s přehledem stavět při studiu na University of Aberdeen, na níž jsem ve studiu matematiky pokračoval. Během studia těchto kurzů jsem začal mít matematiku skutečně rád. Profesor Edward Burger, který připravoval videa do těchto kurzů, je jedním z nejlepších učitelů matematiky v USA. A snad právě díky němu jsem začal mít matematiku opravdu rád a posléze ji i začal studovat na vysoké škole. Ukázal mi, že je to svět zábavy, svět hledání pravdy, svět, kde všechno dává smysl.

Velice důležitou součástí této mé zkušenosti byla paní profesorka Jana Kalová. Byla mojí instruktorkou – pomáhala mi pochopit, co jsem nepobíral, pomáhala mi pravidelně na kurzech pracovat a často mi i psala různé zajímavosti navíc, díky čemuž jsem poznal, že skvělí, milí a nápomocní matematici jsou všude po světě. Během svého středoškolského studia jsem měl přístup k mnoha zdrojům vzdělání - absolvoval jsem různé stáže, psal SOČku, učil se pečlivě do některých předmětů - a všechny byly přínosné, ale CTM Online kurzy rozhodně nejpřínosnější! Doporučil bych je každému a kdykoli!

Thanks to the CTM Online programme, I had the opportunity to study online Maths courses, made by the CTY Johns Hopkins University, while I was still at the Bishop Grammar School in Žďár nad Sázavou. I started with the Honors Pre-Calculus course and then continued by AP Caculus BC. These courses taught me what is the mathematical thinking and how to think about maths problems. It also helped me to develop a wide foundation on which I was building during my studies at the University of Aberdeen, where are continued my studies of mathematics later on. In AP Calculus BC, the concepts of integration and differentiation were amazingly explained by professor Edward Burger, one of the best teachers of mathematics in the USA. But it was not just professor Burger who showed my what a joy doing maths is.

Professor Jana Kalova, my supervisor in this programme, was helping me to understand what I was not able to grasp yet, to help me keep pace with the course tempo and to motivate me when I felt it is too much work for me. During my high school studies, I was using many sources to learn maths – I was taking part in internships, reading books, watching interesting videos on YouTube – but nothing was as beneficial as doing these CTM Online courses. I am eternally grateful to everyone who gave me this opportunity and I would recommend this courses to anyone anytime.
