Ask HN: How can I find math community for my daughter?
My 9 year old daughter loves math and is getting quite good at it (she can derive the quadratic formula from first principles, knows a few other basic proofs, and can factor big numbers faster than I can). Unfortunately, although she has a good number of friends, none of them like to talk about math, so I'm her only "math buddy".
I figured someone here might have some ideas for finding some math community for her. Preferably in-person (in Washington), but virtual could work too. Thanks for any suggestions!
Art of Problem Solving & Math Olympiad have communities everywhere and she can hang out on their forums and start practicing past contests.
Get her a tutor from Preply (you can find incredibly affordable math tutors in foreign countries) and have them work through past contests.
There's Khan academy which is free. (Online)
Are there advanced classes for her to take in your school district?
Then there's math competitions.

Wish you & daughter success.
