Specially Trained and Caring Team
Miss Sommer
Center Director
Miss Sommer is a lifelong math and art enthusiast, but it didn’t start that way. As a child, she struggled with math and dreaded timed tests. That changed in middle school when a thoughtful teacher showed her that math could be creative, fun, and even magical.
She went on to earn a B.A. in Mathematics from Washington & Jefferson College in 2011 and has been with Mathnasium since 2015. Miss Sommer loves helping students overcome their own math fears and discover the beauty of problem-solving.
