Different Think Academy Spring Course Class Levels
Every child has a different starting level and learning speed. Think Academy firmly believes in the importance of scientific learning methods and personalized education for children, so the Think Academy Year-Round Spring Course classes are strictly divided into four levels:
• Enhancement: cultivate interest and lay a solid foundation
• Advancement: interest + competition
• Mastery: top of the competition
• ACE: Preparatory class for the training team
To determine which class level is the best fit for your child’s current math skills and learning speed, we require that each child takes a 1-on-1 evaluation before being placed in a class.
It is not recommended to deliberately pursue high-level shifts, the class that is suitable for your child’s current learning level is their best class option.
The Think Academy Learning Method That Keeps Your Child on Track

The Think Academy 12-level system has specific difficulty and expansion attributes to ensure that our students learn every essential math lesson, develop outstanding study habits, and build upon systematic learning. In all of our Think Academy courses, we teach learning techniques that help children before, during and after class.
Think Academy Study Habits
Before class, students will preview the content of the course in advance. During the class, students will develop the three habits of diligent writing, good expression, and summarization.
The class time is split into different segments: lecture time, group discussions, puzzle games, rest, and activity time to ensure that every child can experience the mysteries of mathematics in a rhythmic and efficient manner. After class, students can review their classroom knowledge through a class video playback, homework, and a 1-hour dedicated live class.
At the same time, at the middle and end of each semester, we will also evaluate each student’s knowledge modules and abilities in mathematics, and set the student’s progress goals in the next semester cycle.
