Everyone is a mathematician

Philadelphia Area Math Teachers' Circle

The Philadelphia Area Math Teachers' Circle (PAMTC) is on a semi-permanent hiatus, mainly due to the Covid-19 pandemic.

We held monthly meetings for teachers - at one point, for two different groups of attendees - from 2011 until 2020. If you have any questions about our work, please email us philamtc@gmail.com. We are happy to help, if you'd like to know more!

Our Support

Since our establishment on July 18, 2011, we have received the generous support of a number of sponsors and partners. Donations from these sponsors allow us to provide dinner for workshop attendees, as well as door-prizes (classroom supplies, coffee, etc.) to honor the hard work of teachers, materials for our problem-solving work, and honoraria to our guest facilitators - who devote a significant amount of time planning workshops with our Leadership Team. We would like to thank and recognize all of our sponsors, partners, and supporters!
