The surprising power of mathematical thinking

Mathematics that surprises, inspires, and improves how we think.

Professor Asaf Ferber creates interactive mathematical experiences for students, educators, and professional teams.

Two ways to work together

Rigorous ideas. Memorable experiences.

Each program starts with a genuine mathematical surprise and turns it into a way of seeing, reasoning, or deciding more clearly.

01

Schools & families

Make mathematics feel alive.

MathMagic shows, multi-session enrichment labs, and practical teacher workshops built around discovery, participation, and joy.

See school programs
02

Organizations & teams

Think better under uncertainty.

Interactive workshops on probability, evidence, algorithms, and decision-making—designed for intelligent people facing difficult choices.

A new way to experience mathematics

Meet MathWizard.

Step into Professor Pi's interactive world of mathematical magic, stories, puzzles, animation, real explanations, and meaningful practice.

MathWizard begins with a reason to become curious, then helps learners investigate the idea, understand why it works, and use it themselves. It is created especially for curious learners in grades 4–8, with enrichment adventures that older learners, families, teachers, and adults can enjoy too.

  • Story-based interactive lessons
  • Mathematical magic with rigorous explanations
  • Practice, puzzles, progress, and achievements

The Mind Reader

Think of a number from 1 to 15.

Professor Pi will ask four questions—and reveal it.

The Math Pro philosophy

“The best mathematical idea does more than solve a problem. It changes what you notice next.”

Serious mathematics can be accessible without being simplified into emptiness. The goal is not merely to teach techniques, but to create the moment when a hidden pattern suddenly becomes visible.

Meet Professor Ferber

A research mathematician who loves the moment an idea clicks.

Asaf Ferber is a professor at UC Irvine whose work spans probability, combinatorics, graph theory, algorithms, and quantum algorithms. He brings the same curiosity and clarity to a fifth grade math club, a teacher workshop, or a strategy team.
