then he was supposed to be just a two
then he was supposed to be just a two weeks on my program advanced math for
weeks on my program advanced math for
weeks on my program advanced math for low-income students free of charge so we
low-income students free of charge so we
low-income students free of charge so we got 37 students and at the end of the
got 37 students and at the end of the
got 37 students and at the end of the summer program we had these closing

2017 so just as a snapshot of the
2017 so just as a snapshot of the situation that we live in Mexico and the
situation that we live in Mexico and the
situation that we live in Mexico and the lack of support for public school
lack of support for public school
lack of support for public school students so in red there is a public
students so in red there is a public
students so in red there is a public school students in the 2016 state
school students in the 2016 state
school students in the 2016 state competition as you can see they just
competition as you can see they just
competition as you can see they just fight of them out of the 32 students
fight of them out of the 32 students
fight of them out of the 32 students which is a really low percentage and
which is a really low percentage and
which is a really low percentage and that reflects the lack of support and
that reflects the lack of support and
that reflects the lack of support and many of these talented students have so
many of these talented students have so
many of these talented students have so to solve a problem integral Mathematica
to solve a problem integral Mathematica
to solve a problem integral Mathematica has a four year program in which Public
has a four year program in which Public
has a four year program in which Public Schools talented students they enter the
Schools talented students they enter the
Schools talented students they enter the program when they’re in fifth or sixth
program when they’re in fifth or sixth
program when they’re in fifth or sixth grade and then in these four years we
grade and then in these four years we
grade and then in these four years we provide them with different
provide them with different
provide them with different opportunities such as summer programs
opportunities such as summer programs
opportunities such as summer programs classes during the weekends math day is

classes during the weekends math day is math competitions scholarships all of
math competitions scholarships all of
math competitions scholarships all of these free of charge after four years
these free of charge after four years
these free of charge after four years these 5th and 6th grades become 9th
these 5th and 6th grades become 9th
these 5th and 6th grades become 9th graders who have a lot of experience and
graders who have a lot of experience and
graders who have a lot of experience and a lot of knowledge and they become
a lot of knowledge and they become
a lot of knowledge and they become something that we call members and their
something that we call members and their
something that we call members and their new roles as members is to teach math
new roles as members is to teach math
new roles as members is to teach math and be the mentors for future
and be the mentors for future
and be the mentors for future generations so for example last summer
generations so for example last summer
generations so for example last summer program we had teacher trainers or
program we had teacher trainers or
program we had teacher trainers or teacher assistants with age was 13 or 14
teacher assistants with age was 13 or 14
teacher assistants with age was 13 or 14 years old
years old
years old teaching 11 and 12 years old so here we
teaching 11 and 12 years old so here we
teaching 11 and 12 years old so here we are teacher students teaching all our
are teacher students teaching all our
are teacher students teaching all our students are really young age so in as I
students are really young age so in as I
students are really young age so in as I said in 2016 in a first program we had
said in 2016 in a first program we had
said in 2016 in a first program we had 37
37
37 students by 2017 we grew 220 were
students by 2017 we grew 220 were
students by 2017 we grew 220 were planning to serve 240 students neatly
planning to serve 240 students neatly
planning to serve 240 students neatly and get 2,000 students per year by 2020
and get 2,000 students per year by 2020
and get 2,000 students per year by 2020 also by 2020 were planning to have to
also by 2020 were planning to have to
also by 2020 were planning to have to have sir 2,000 students and by 2027
have sir 2,000 students and by 2027
have sir 2,000 students and by 2027 we’re trying to replicate these model in
we’re trying to replicate these model in
we’re trying to replicate these model in different locations in Mexico to have
different locations in Mexico to have
different locations in Mexico to have 4,000 students per year and a total of
4,000 students per year and a total of
4,000 students per year and a total of 20,000 students by the time and then
20,000 students by the time and then
20,000 students by the time and then continue growing exponentially so I want
continue growing exponentially so I want
continue growing exponentially so I want to clarify that mud olympics or mud
to clarify that mud olympics or mud
to clarify that mud olympics or mud competitions is not a goal but it’s a
competitions is not a goal but it’s a
competitions is not a goal but it’s a good way to reflect the results in a
good way to reflect the results in a
good way to reflect the results in a short term so all the all our students
short term so all the all our students
short term so all the all our students of the first generation they have been
of the first generation they have been
of the first generation they have been competing the last year in different
competing the last year in different
competing the last year in different math competitions and all of them
math competitions and all of them
math competitions and all of them without exception they have one place in
without exception they have one place in
without exception they have one place in life during this year so for example in
life during this year so for example in
life during this year so for example in the state competition the one that I
the state competition the one that I
the state competition the one that I participated ten years ago in 2016 we
participated ten years ago in 2016 we
participated ten years ago in 2016 we have before integration mathematica we

and this last so my program he became
and this last so my program he became the youngest teacher in the whole state
the youngest teacher in the whole state
the youngest teacher in the whole state to teach advanced mathematics so at the
to teach advanced mathematics so at the
to teach advanced mathematics so at the age of 15 he was a teacher and he did an
age of 15 he was a teacher and he did an
age of 15 he was a teacher and he did an amazing job so we’re trying to replicate
amazing job so we’re trying to replicate
amazing job so we’re trying to replicate what we did with Diego to have thousands
what we did with Diego to have thousands

many answers but one of the responses
many answers but one of the responses was I will talk him that he will never
was I will talk him that he will never
was I will talk him that he will never find an opportunity like this in his
find an opportunity like this in his
find an opportunity like this in his life so he should take it and this is to
life so he should take it and this is to

show that public talented students they are looking for an opportunity to
are looking for an opportunity to
are looking for an opportunity to succeed
succeed
succeed they just need one opportunity and we
they just need one opportunity and we
they just need one opportunity and we hope integration Mathematica can be data
