Why this Project

Since they were ten, Pietro and Francesco have been attending weekly extracurricular math lessons held by talented young mathematicians.

"We wondered if there was a way to make sure that the privilege we had could be extended to other teenagers who, coming from less fortunate situations, might be precluded from educational and work paths in which they could potentially succeed"

Structure of the Project

In-presence or remote learning
Classes of 5 to 10 students
Weekly lessons of 75 - 90 minutes each

Players

MSC EF together with Pietro e Francesco Baragiola (who will be maintaining a central role in pursuing all MSC EF's objectives as stated in the bylaws);
Tutors selected by MatemUpper among STEM young graduates and PhD candidates (who - thanks to MSC EF - earn a monthly income);
Students (selected among Educational Centers, Schools, non-profit Organizations ...).

The Pilot Project

Thanks to the Crowdfunding launched by Pietro and Francesco in October 2022, in March 2023 the "Pilot Project"for 15 teenagers was ready to start with "The Tube", the Educational Center of an NGO in Central Italy (Comunità di Capodarco di Fermo).
