USACO Bronze 计算机奥赛铜级培训班

不像其他奥赛一年只有一次竞赛,学生们往往需要从最初级开始往上层层突破,美国计算机奥赛USACO 一年共有4次比赛,参与即被认定为铜级,一旦升级至银, 金,白金等任何一级,就可以一直保持继续向前考,甚至连续升级。而且,USACO比赛人数也较少,每次全美都只有一两千人左右;不像其他奥赛通常有10%的过线的限制,USACO只要达到一定的分数线,就都可以出线,相对得奖比例和几率都很高。

自前年年底比赛增加了白金级以后,从铜升级到银更加容易了。只要有熟练的电脑编程经验,加上一点竞赛技巧就很容易达到银。

春晖教育自2013年开始USACO 各级的培训,我们大多数的学生都晋级到银,金,白金以及finalist。不少学生得到满分1000分。

春晖教育下周六开始的铜级的课程是面对学过初级Java或C++的学生,想要加强自己的编程能力,为今年12月中的进行的USACO比赛备战。

对学过初步的Java 或者 C++ ,有心要加强programming的能力,并参加USACO bronze 计算机奥赛

时间:5月20日起, 每周六下午 2:30 to 5:00pm。

学费:$800/10 次课

秦老师有着丰富的programming,AP CS 和USACO计算机奥赛的教学经验,并取得了显著的教学成果:去年夏天开始跟秦老师从USACO最初级铜级(Bronze)在USACO竞赛中取得了最高级白金级(Platinum)。而且不少同学满分晋级银级Silver和金级Gold和白金级Platinum,以及正在努力finalist。秦老师将他丰富的教学及竞赛经验结合生动的例子整理出了一堂堂干货”满满的系统性教学来帮助学生夯实基础,详解算法,解题技巧,逻辑思考,开拓思路。


AP biology 生物备考课

还有两个月,College Board 主办的一年一度的AP考试就要登场了。你们准备好了吗?

在近40门的AP考试中,AP 生物课是非常重要也是比较难取得满分的一门。为此,春晖特为今年五月参加考试的学生开设了一堂AP生物备考课

学校的生物课不是教得太少,就是离AP考试内容相差太远。如果备考课只是让学生们一套又一套地做题目,在概念不清的情况下拼命做题只能是事倍功半。春晖的AP生物备考课首先帮助学生理清概念,然后再有的放矢地重点复习与考试相关的内容。对学生来说,这样的复习备考不仅帮助他们为考试做好了充分的准备,而且巩固了他们的生物知识,为以后学习其他与科学有关的科目打下了坚实的基础。

春晖的生物老师Mrs. Webster 在注重教育的传统犹太家庭中长大,大学主修生物,后获得生物硕士学位。 幽默风趣的Mrs. Webster在帮助学生准备生物AP考试方面非常有经验,她的学生们都以优异的成绩通过了AP生物考试拿到了5分和4分,其中不少还只是9年级的学生。

春晖的AP生物备考课适合已经在学校学完或者自学完成了生物课的学生。如果没学过生物课又想在短时间突击学习参加考试的学生请先与老师联系。

知己知彼,百战不殆。考场如战场,取胜的秘诀只有一条:不打无准备之仗。还有两个月,马上开始准备吧!

AP Biology class

Meeting every weekend throughout the fall semester, this class will cover the entire AP Biology course as laid out by the College Board.
(The class is appropriate for students who are currently taking AP Biology or who are self-studying for the exam.)
Students will gain a complete, in-depth understanding of all required AP Biology concepts, as well as plenty of practice and feedback.
All past students have scored well on their exams, even 9th graders and self-studiers.

USABO class
This class is for highly motivated USABO competition students (including the USABO students who started over the summer).
As recommended by the USABO organization, we will be covering every single chapter in the Campbellbiology book (the official book of the competition).  This means students may need to read and review up to 5 chapters a week.
(SpringLight will also offer an in-depth “taking all the exams from previous years” class in Jan-Feb, 2017.)
Our previous students have been extremely successful:
*all our students scored above 20 on the regional (the cutoff for nationals was 23.88)
*50% of our students made it to semifinals
*2 of our students have made it to finals (top 20 in the US)


NEW HOT TOPIC! Add NACLO on your application! Take our class to prepare for next year’s contest!

Computational Linguistics plays a more and more important role in modern technology. It also weighs more in college admission no matter if you want to study computer science or linguistics.

The North American Computational Linguistics Olympiad (NACLO) is a contest in which high-school students solve linguistic puzzles. By solving these puzzles, students learn about the diversity and consistency of language, while exercising logic skills. No prior knowledge of linguistics or second languages is necessary: even the hardest problems require only your logical ability, patient work, and willingness to think outside the box.

The number of students who participate in NACLO every year from the U.S. and Canada is less than 2000, which leaves a strong chance for students to enter the semi-final round.

NACLO is as important as USAMO, USACO, USABO, USAPhO and USNCO, although it is still not widely known by the students and parents.

國際語言學奧林匹克競賽(IOL)是面向全球高中生的十二項科學類奧林匹克競賽之一,北美計算語言學奧賽(NACLO)由美國和加拿大的高中生參加,是出征IOL的選拔賽。此項奧賽與數學,計算機和物理等其他奧賽具有同等的含金量,卻尚不廣為人知,因此相對於其他奧賽,獲得大獎的比例更高,機會更大。參加語言學奧林匹克競賽的學生并不需要預先掌握深奧的語言學知識,而是需要運用洞察力,想象力和邏輯推理能力來解決語言學謎題,機具趣味性。

教授這門課的Nelson Niu 進入過NACLO的全美國前四名,并代表美國隊红队參加IOL國際比賽,獲得個人銀獎,團體金獎。他還獲得過多項數學競賽大獎,並有豐富的教學經驗。

Biology Honors class (for 6th-9th graders)

Meeting twice a week throughout the summer, this class is designed for students with little to no biology background, preparing them for high school biology classes. This class will teach the same level of biology as the 9th grade classes in public schools and some private middle schools.​ Students will leave with prepared, with a complete, in-depth understanding of high school biology and honors biology topics.  The students will even conduct some experiments and submit lab reports.Textbook: Biology by Kenneth R. Miller

 

AP biology class

​Meeting twice a week throughout the summer, this class will preview the entire AP Biology course as laid out by the College Board, with a special emphasis on the most challenging chapters (photosynthesis, cell signaling, etc).
(The class is appropriate for students who have already completed a HS-level science course or that are highly motivated.)
Students will leave with a complete, in-depth understanding of all required AP Biology concepts.  (Those who are self-studying for the exam will still need to practice and review, but they will have a complete basic understanding of all required concepts.)
All past students have received a 4 or a 5 on their exams, even 9th graders and self-studiers.

 

Bio SAT II class

Are you ready for the October 1st SAT II Biology exam?
This class will help you prepare by reviewing every single subject necessary for the exam according to the College Board.  We will use practice questions from multiple sources and complete >5 practice exams before test date.
Recommended books: Campbell biology (any edition), Barons SATII Biology test prep.  (A biology background such as Freshman Biology is highly recommended.)

 

USABO class
This class is for first-time USABO competition students who are highly motivated.
​As recommended by the USABO organization, we will be covering every single chapter in the Campbell biology book (the official book of the competition), beginning in summer and continuing throughout the fall semester.  (Yes, this means you will also be fully prepared for the AP Bio and SATII bio.)
By beginning so early, we will not be too rushed, but students should still invest 2-5 hours every week reading and reviewing materials outside of class. (SpringLight will also offer a “cram” class over winter break, and an in-depth “taking all the exams from previous years” class in Jan-Feb, 2017.)
Our previous students have been extremely successful:
*all our students scored above 20 on the regional (the cutoff for nationals was 23.88)
*50% of our students made it to semifinals
*2 of our students have made it to finals (top 20 in the US)

Instructor Mrs. Webster: With over 10 years of tutoring and editing experience, Mrs. Webster teaches biology, test prep, and writing(including application writing).  Funny, articulate, and knowledgeable, she is often called “the best teacher” by her students.
Mrs. Webster’s students have been very successful indeed: her application-writing students have been accepted to Ivy League schools; her USABO students have made it to nationals; her ACT students have achieved dramatic, 10 point increases in their scores—and sometimes even perfect scores. 
Raised by Jewish tiger parents, Mrs. Webster was a National Merit Scholar, receiving 1560/1600 on her SATs and 5’s on her APs. Funded by a 30 thousand dollar writing scholarship, she earned a BS in biology with a minor in studio art from Lake Forest College, IL. She then studied neuroscience at UAB and received an MS in biomedical science.


AP Biology and SAT biology Exam prep classes

Is your student ready for the AP Biology test?

There is a lot of material covered by the exam–now is the time to begin reviewing!  Our class supports students with an organized review structure.An excellent HS teacher may be sufficient to help your child prepare, but many HS teachers neglect to consult the College Board website, teaching students either too little or too much information for the AP test.  Therefore, SpringLight’s test-prep class reviews only the essential materials, but reviews them thoroughly.Many students feel that they need more practice for the Free Response section of the test (which is 50% of the overall score!). Therefore, SpringLight’s test-prep class assigns weekly Free Response questions andprovides each student with detailed, individual feedback.
 
In SpringLight’s test prep class, students will:
-complete several practice essays each week
-receive detailed, individual feedback on each essay
thoroughly review textbook information essential for the AP test
practice AP-style multiple choice questions organized by subject
