|From Math to Computing: Is It a Palindrome?

Math comes alive for young learners when they begin to see the logic and games in the patterns that numbers make.  Exploding that fascination while they are school-age can get them to open up to foundational skills for strong computing. Who knows? You learner might be the next Steve Jobs or Bill Gates! You kid can develop math skills. All it takes is a can-do attitude-- a confidence that says, every problem has a solution, and I know how to find it.

That's why concepts like the palindrome become so useful to a growing mind. So useful that many companies use puzzle questions related to the palindrome during job interviews. Case-in-point: Airbnb recently reported using a palindrome puzzle to figure out how quick on their toes job candidates were during their interviews. 

Get your child a leg up early in life!

Whether you learner is just curious about math puzzles, or you and your learner would like to see progress in math skills that lead to practical abilities to perform in any thinking job, this concept is one you don't want your child to gloss over.

The goal for this class is to be able to explain how a list of logical instructions (precursor for computing) can be applied to a number to answer this question, "Is this number a palindrome?"
