Our Team

Harry Tom, Center Director (Owner)
Harry earned a Master’s Degree in Education following a Bachelor’s of Arts in Human Development from Hope International University (Fullerton), and has his California multiple subject credential with supplemental math authorization. He also has a Master in Religion from Southern California Seminary and a Bachelor of Arts in Theology from Calvary Chapel Bible College. Harry has been a math teacher for Palos Verdes Unified, El Segundo Unified, Torrance Unified School District, LAUSD, and has taught at Gardena Valley Christian School, and Crossroad Christian Academy. Harry can identify with many of the students he comes across in his classrooms and at Mathnasium. He personally struggled with math as a student, but later discovered that math can be “conquered” through discovery, attitude adjustment, proper thinking, and by having fun. He’s thrilled to be able to help students in Torrance improve their math skills and attitude as he once did, and looks forward to serving many children at his Mathnasium Center. Harry is a native of Torrance and lives in the area with his wife and 2 young children. He enjoys sports of all kinds and loves working with children of all ages.
