Math · Grade 6 · Russian curriculum
Grade 6 is the last year before algebra. Negative numbers, divisibility and proportions still look like arithmetic here, but in grade 7 variable expressions will be built on top of them.
Scope of preparation
The “Numbers and structures” section appears — divisibility and the properties of numbers. Arithmetic is still in the lead (62 methods), but the foundation for algebra is already being laid here.
The numbers are counted across the topics available in grade 6: the year’s curriculum plus everything it builds on. A solution method can belong to several sections at once, so the section values should not be added up into a total.
percentages, fractions, proportions, motion and work problems
expressions, equations, inequalities, transforming expressions
shapes, areas, congruence and similarity criteria, proofs
divisibility, fractions, exponents, properties of numbers
tables, charts, the mean
This year’s topics
4 topics are introduced in grade 6 itself. Each one builds on what came before — that is why the count above shows 127 solution methods: it also includes the necessary foundation from earlier years.
The list comes from the platform’s knowledge base rather than being written for the website: the lessons, which are in Russian, follow these same topics.
You can learn the definitions and rules from these topics in the free “Build the Definition” study tool (in Russian).
What it costs
Base helps with the current school curriculum; Exam adds preparation for the OGE and EGE — Russia’s state exams after grades 9 and 11.

Lessons, exercises and the tutor’s explanations on the platform are in Russian and follow the Russian school curriculum. The platform interface is available in English.
Negative numbers, absolute value and divisibility. On the surface this is still arithmetic, but these are exactly what variable expressions will stand on in grade 7. A student who is still unsure here stumbles not over algebra but over signs.
With a knowledge check. It is done once and, instead of a grade, shows a list of topics that still have gaps — including those left over from earlier years. The plan is then built around them.
Go back to it rather than move on. Topics are connected: the next one can’t be mastered until the previous one is. The platform finds the earliest topic that still has a gap and starts from there, not from the current textbook section.
One lesson is about ten minutes. On a regular day, one or two are enough. There’s no rigid schedule: the plan adapts to what has already been covered.
For some it will, for others it won’t. The platform covers what a tutor usually doesn’t have enough hours for: it looks for the cause of the mistake, keeps the topics in order and explains the same thing as many times as needed. If having a real person alongside matters to the student, one doesn’t get in the way of the other.
If the accounts are linked — sessions, completed topics and progress through the plan. There are no grades or reports of failures there.
It shows which topics are holding the student back in grade 6 — including those left over from earlier years — and builds a plan around exactly those.
