About

Parallel aims to increase the number and diversity of excellent mathematicians. We achieve this by offering:

• free weekly maths puzzle sheets (Parallelograms),
• free weekly Maths Circles,
• special webinars to support those preparing for UKMT Maths Challenges,
• primary and secondary school programmes,
• a weekly onling tutoring programme that students can attend for five years.

We believe that our all our offerings can make good young mathematicians even stronger. In particular, the weekly tutoring programme offers a genuinely life-changing opportunity.

Project was founded by best-selling science writer Simon Singh, and the programmes are run by Dr Junaid Mubeen. They are supported by a small team at Parallel HQ and over brilliant 100 tutors. Our website was originally designed and built by education innovator Philipp Legner (creator of the brilliant Mathigon), and full-stack wizard Drew McMillan is responsible for building our current site.
