Our staff is built to teach each student individually, to develop the skills they need to thrive in mathematics, and to foster a love of learning.

Nicolas Silva

Center Director
I was born in the United States; however, I was raised, and spent most of my life in Brazil, which is where most of my education in math comes from. There, I fell in love with the subject and with teaching. Four years ago I moved to the US, and brought my passions with me. I have been at Mathnasium for almost 2 years now, and hope to keep teaching for many years to come.

Angel Bravo

Lead Instructor
I am a UConn-Stamford student, majoring in Economics and Finance, with a strong passion for math. My high school and college tutoring experiences have taught me valuable teaching skills that help me better understand what goes on in the minds of our math students. I believe our instructors' fluent communication with the students is key to our center's success and the battle against students' hostility toward math. Using the Mathnasium Method, I have adapted my teaching language and thought processes to make math make sense and ensure an enjoyable visit for our students. We look forward to your next visit to Mathnasium!

Jason Bin

Lead Instructor
My name is Jason Bin, and I am a graduate from Stamford High School. Before becoming an Instructor at Mathnasium, I was an instructor of martial arts, which is when I realized my love for teaching and working with kids. Since then, I have known that I want to be a teacher, and Mathnasium has only encouraged that passion. I have been part of the Mathnasium team since Fall of 2021, and my favorite part about it is how it has always felt like such a welcoming environment for both, the students, and the instructors. Math has always been something that just makes sense to me and am happy to help it make sense to others too. I really believe in the program here and love seeing kids understand their math work while they enjoy what they are doing.

Alex Cohen

Instructor
Hi! I’m Alex. I’m a Junior at Westhill High School right here in Stamford. I love math, have loved it since my early years in school, and of course, I love teaching math. I would like to be a math teacher when I’m older. Through Mathnasium, I’ve come to learn how math works in the minds of the students, and the best ways to help them develop their math skills. I have the pleasure to be in a wonderful working environment and I can assure the students and their parents that at Mathnasium they will overcome any challenges with the help of our dedicated team. My goal is to ensure every student at Mathnasium ends their sessions feeling as good as I do.

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.
