SEAMO PTE. LTD.

Mathematical Olympiad competitions are popular among many top, prestigious, schools. However, most of these competitions are very challenging and the novice participants usually do not fare well. This leads to them being discouraged from participating in future competitions for fear of failure. In addition, there have been complaints from teachers and parents that the concepts being tested are overly intricate and beyond the understanding of even the very talented students. In order to assist the students, we took the initiative to research for types of questions to bridge the wide gap. We want to provide a tool to stretch the novice Olympians a little at a time, let them experience success and be motivated to continue and move progressively until they reach excellence for other more challenging Maths Olympiad competitions. After rigorous review, we found that these questions are most appropriate for our students in Southeast Asia. This year 2019 SEAMO is taking flight. We are seeking for support from Principals, Maths HODs, teachers, parents and students to help to grow this competition.
