About the foundation
A place for demanding study.
The Speculum Mundi Foundation teaches Advanced Mathematics to exceptional junior students in Zimbabwe through the Juventus Fellowship.
What we do
We begin with basic mathematics and build a firm grasp of the fundamentals. Fellows progress through the school curriculum at an accelerated pace, with time to understand each idea before moving on.
From there, we introduce more advanced mathematics, proof writing and Olympiad problems. Competition preparation is part of the programme, not its starting point. We are an independent initiative, not an official selection body for competitions.
The longer view
Serious intellectual work need not end with youth. We are also developing the Legacy Fellowship for adults aged 35 and older returning to higher mathematics and physics.
