my life changed 10 years ago he was a
rainy day in Oaxaca Mexico I see I see
you can remember coming back from break
also Eddie after playing soccer and seen
these John might teach him from the
classroom he was inviting us to
participate in advanced math
competitions
he was also offering us free advanced
math classes for two weeks to all of us
because it sounded interesting because I
like math and most important because he
was free I joined these my trainings
after two weeks I participated in the
state competition in this competition
fortunately I won’t one of the first
places however I was the only public
high school history in the state to win
a first place while competing for the
Nationals I realized that my level of
math was not as good as all that private
school students and that was not because
I was not as smart as them but rather
because I didn’t had the resources nor
the support that they had but they
didn’t let me down I went and knocked
the doors of many of these private
schools asking if I could join their mad
clubs
unfortunately all of them told me no
again a dinky Bob and will support my
family I got a loan to pay for a private
matter school for a couple of days I was
looking for one but then I didn’t find
any in my whole city so I ended up
attending pre-college math classes at
the age of 12 so I mean at least these
classes allow me to ask questions about
the mud problems that I had after two
months of attending these classes and
working really hard by myself I was one
of the three students who was able to
represent my state in the national
competition in 2008 for the next three
years I participate in different
national and international competitions
and in 2012 I won a full scholarship to
finish my high school in a universal
international high school in New Mexico
called United World College after that
in 2014 I want an awful scholarship to
attend
Macalester College in some Paul
Minnesota so in my freshman year
a Yoda eight thousand dollar grant to a
start integration Mathematica which by
then he was supposed to be just a two
weeks on my program advanced math for
low-income students free of charge so we
got 37 students and at the end of the
summer program we had these closing
ceremony and one of the students
approached me crying and begging me to
continue a program she argue that
integration Mathematica was her only way
to succeed on 4/20 by then adding had
the resources to continue however that
moment was the start of something bigger
in 2017 that two-week summer program had
become a registered medical nonprofit
organization with four programs
throughout the year and 120 students by
2017 so just as a snapshot of the
situation that we live in Mexico and the
lack of support for public school
students so in red there is a public
school students in the 2016 state
competition as you can see they just
fight of them out of the 32 students
which is a really low percentage and
that reflects the lack of support and
many of these talented students have so
to solve a problem integral Mathematica
has a four year program in which Public
Schools talented students they enter the
program when they’re in fifth or sixth
grade and then in these four years we
provide them with different
opportunities such as summer programs
classes during the weekends math day is
math competitions scholarships all of
these free of charge after four years
these 5th and 6th grades become 9th
graders who have a lot of experience and
a lot of knowledge and they become
something that we call members and their
new roles as members is to teach math
and be the mentors for future
generations so for example last summer
program we had teacher trainers or
teacher assistants with age was 13 or 14
years old
teaching 11 and 12 years old so here we
are teacher students teaching all our
students are really young age so in as I
said in 2016 in a first program we had
37
students by 2017 we grew 220 were
planning to serve 240 students neatly
and get 2,000 students per year by 2020
also by 2020 were planning to have to
have sir 2,000 students and by 2027
we’re trying to replicate these model in
different locations in Mexico to have
4,000 students per year and a total of
20,000 students by the time and then
continue growing exponentially so I want
to clarify that mud olympics or mud
competitions is not a goal but it’s a
good way to reflect the results in a
short term so all the all our students
of the first generation they have been
competing the last year in different
math competitions and all of them
without exception they have one place in
life during this year so for example in
the state competition the one that I
participated ten years ago in 2016 we
have before integration mathematica we
have one public college student as part
of the group of winners by 2017 after
integration Mathematica has started we
we go to five public school students and
out of deep fryer students four of them
are from integration Mathematica
an example is a real white color
competition which is a state competition
just for public school students our
students participate for the first time
last year and they won all the first
places all the second all the second
places and have all the third places so
in this organization I’m not alone I’m
really fortunate to have an amazing team
of joint leaders and join teachers who
are really excited to provide of
advanced math education for low-income
students so some of them are Guillermo
moonkam Berger is his authority Sophie
abilities Ana Lopez donative Cruz who is
my brother Maria Trejo and Diego Franco
and this is something really interesting
about Diego Franco so Giga Franco he’s
now 15 years old he was one of my very
first students when I started teaching
mad clubs in 2014
and this last so my program he became
the youngest teacher in the whole state
to teach advanced mathematics so at the
age of 15 he was a teacher and he did an
amazing job so we’re trying to replicate
what we did with Diego to have thousands
and thousands of students doing the same
and teaching all our students so at the
end of the summer program we have a salt
we give a survey to our students and one
of the questions is if you find a
student decided we’re coming to this
program what would you tell him we get
many answers but one of the responses
was I will talk him that he will never
find an opportunity like this in his
life so he should take it and this is to
show that public talented students they
are looking for an opportunity to
succeed
they just need one opportunity and we
hope integration Mathematica can be data
per 24 them so thanks to our success and
results we have we’ve been featured in
different media in Mexico such as
television radio newspaper in the state
and national level in the last couple of
years we are currently training 46
students to become the members in the
future and as I mentioned before we’re
hoping to get thousands and thousands of
students to become members so they can
teach the future generations so
integrations Mathematica goal is to
provide support and opportunities to
talented low-income students so they can
achieve their full potential and change
the paths of their lives
thank you so much
