Making learning fun and exciting without being a burden is something he looks forward to for all his students.

Nancy Bugwadia

Co-Owner

After working in the healthcare industry for over 30 years, Nancy was excited by the parallels with healthcare and teaching in bringing compassion and community engagement. Though she has helped with both the Mathnasium of Mountain View-Los Altos and Mathnasium of Campbell-Los Gatos Centers from their inception, she decided to join the Centers full-time in June 2022. Nancy has created partnerships with Parent Leadership Organizations and hosted Math Nights in several local schools. She brings the fun factor to the Centers! Nancy holds a BS in Microbiology and an MS in Clinical Nutrition and is also a Registered Dietitian. She loves spending time with family and friends as well as cooking, gardening, and reading.

Assistant Center Manager

Fernan joined the Mathnasium of Campbell-Los Gatos team in 2013 and has a degree from San Jose State University in Design Studies with a minor in Computer Science. Fernan had previously tutored students in other math tutoring programs; however, at Mathnasium, she has come to appreciate the Mathnasium teaching strategies used to explain math and help students of all levels succeed. Fernan's approach to instructing is specific to the student. Understanding him or her guides her to utilize the most appropriate teaching approach. It comes naturally to her to connect with others emotionally and to bring enthusiasm and passion to her work. As a result, almost every one of of her students and their parents have verbally expressed that they enjoy working with her. She enjoys interacting with colleagues and always seeks to improve her knowledge base and skill sets.

Our Mathnasium Mission

Teach children math so they understand it, master it, and love it. Math can change their lives, and they can change the world.

What I love about Mathnasium is the ability to teach problem-solving skills and make math make sense, while also making a student smile.
