​What we do

Every student should have a first-rate teacher. And that means we need to work harder to make teaching a viable, rewarding, and respected career choice for the best minds in mathematics and computer science.
 
The MƒA Los Angeles model is changing the very landscape of the teaching and learning of mathematics and computer science. We find the best mathematics and computer science teachers, create opportunities for their professional and intellectual growth, and sustain them in their teaching careers. Within our community, they share knowledge, advance teaching skills, and define excellence itself—which means they can enjoy dynamic, interesting, and challenging careers without ever leaving the classroom.
 
And when extraordinary teachers stay in the classroom, students get the educational experiences they deserve.
