"Our son was an IMACS student from 8th through 10th grade. Because of his radical acceleration in school and in math in particular, he needed early access to more than what was available at middle and high school. eIMACS allowed him to take advanced classes without the prejudice of age or grade-level expectations. eIMACS provided our son with rigorous classes in programming and logic in a flexible, self-paced manner in the comfort of our home. The Web-based interface and self-contained compilers were bug free, allowing him to concentrate on learning. The online instructors gave prompt and encouraging feedback. Our son is now a high school senior and applying to top math and science universities across the country. Thank you, IMACS, for giving him a firm foundation!" - Steve Tkach, Parent

We love eIMACS! We knew that our daughter was gifted in math, but IMACS was the first institution to recognize that she had an aptitude and an interest in computer science. The eIMACS course in AP Computer Science fully prepared her for the exam (offering her a course she could not have found elsewhere in middle school), and she received a 5. She is continuing with the logic courses and hopes to major in math. We highly recommend eIMACS!

Many parents have commented on how pleased they are with the EIMACS Program. The content is appropriately challenging for gifted children and the access to online support is quick and reliable. I would recommend it as an option for anyone looking for a math program or simply math enrichment. |
