Videos

Browse our library of Russian Math tutoring videos — classroom walkthroughs, Peterson-method lesson excerpts, concept explainers for parents and students, and tutor-introduction clips from our teachers. Use these videos to see our tutoring approach in action, understand how Russian Math differs from standard American math instruction, and get a feel for a tutor’s teaching style before booking a trial lesson.

What’s in the library

The video archive covers the full span of what our tutors teach, grouped by purpose:

• Lesson walkthroughs — recorded 15 to 45 minute segments where a tutor works through a specific concept the way they’d present it in a live 1-on-1 session. The best place to see what a real lesson actually looks like before booking a trial.
• Peterson-method concept explainers — short (3 to 8 minute) videos explaining a single idea the way Russian Math teaches it: how the diagram comes first, how the operations emerge from the structure, why kids derive instead of memorize.
• Competition problem solutions — past-year AMC 8 / 10 / 12, AIME, Math Kangaroo, MOEMS, and MATHCOUNTS problems with worked solutions. These show both the quick trick and the slower, more generalizable approach.
• Grade-level primers — "what Russian Math looks like in 1st grade" / "what Russian Math looks like in 6th grade" overview videos for parents evaluating whether the curriculum is the right fit.
• Tutor introductions — short clips from individual tutors so families can hear their style and accent before picking who to book.

How to use these videos effectively

For most families, the highest-leverage way to use the library is to watch a 10 minute walkthrough before your trial lesson so you’re already calibrated on what to expect, then come back for concept explainers when a specific topic gets stuck. If your child is competition-bound, the past-paper solution videos pair well with the AMC/AIME problem packs in our math-competitions blog category. Videos under five minutes are great to watch together with your child; longer walkthroughs work better after a lesson as review material.

Looking for something specific?

The video list below is searchable by title and tag. If you’re looking for a particular topic that isn’t covered yet, mention it when you contact us — our tutors record new material based on where students actually get stuck, and the request queue is how we prioritize what gets filmed next.
