thanks! yeah aops is the mother ship, i am just plying a little ferry. my problem sets come from irodov, loney, hall and knight. These are 100+ year old classics, can get them off libgen. during covid i did zoom. nowadays the students just drop in on weekends. i don’t really prepare, most of this is high school math and thankfully my math muscles haven’t atrophied. honestly, i like the midwest. yes people are poor and the public school system is grossly underfunded. but the kids want to learn and i feel i am making a difference teaching them competition math. there’s no money in it, that’s forsure. but it makes me happy.
