Mathnasium Frequently Asked Questions

  • What is considered below year level in primary school?

    A student performing below year level hasn't fully grasped the maths skills expected for their age. This often means they struggle to keep up in class, which can hurt their confidence and motivation.

  • How do I know if my child needs help in maths?

    Signs that a student may need additional support in maths include:

    • Consistent difficulty with homework
    • Frequent frustration or anxiety during lessons
    • Lower-than-expected test scores
    • Inconsistent understanding of basic maths concepts
    • Avoidance of maths-related tasks or activities
    • Lack of confidence in maths skills

    We start every student with a free assessment to see exactly where they are in maths. This helps us understand their strengths and what they need to work on, so we can create a learning plan that's just right for them.

  • Does Mathnasium work with advanced primary school students?

    Certainly! Advanced students can enjoy new challenges, explore math topics outside their primary school curriculum, and pursue their unique academic goals at Mathnasium.

  • How can I make sure my year 5 student is ready for year 6 maths?

    We help year 5 students build the skills they'll need for success in primary school maths. To be ready for year 6, students should feel comfortable with:

    • Solving word problems step by step
    • Reading and creating graphs
    • Comparing and ordering decimals
    • Working with fractions and mixed numbers
    • Understanding basic ratios and rates
    • Using negative numbers and percentages
  • Do Mathnasium’s primary school tutors help with maths homework?

    Yes. Our tutors will set aside a portion of each session to help students with their maths homework.

  • How can my child get started with Mathnasium’s primary school maths tutoring?

    Enrolling your child for primary school maths tutoring is as easy as one-two-three: 

    1. Find a location. Reach out to your nearest learning centre, even if your child will be learning online.
    2. Schedule an assessment. Our diagnostic skills assessment helps us create a customised learning plan for your child.
    3. Book your sessions. Your local Centre Director can guide you and your child in setting up a tutoring schedule.
  • What happens during the initial assessment at Mathnasium?

    At Mathnasium, we understand that assessments can sometimes feel stressful for students, so we designed ours to make students feel comfortable and confident from the get-go. We start by building rapport with students, giving them a short centre tour, and setting expectations.

    We conduct both a verbal and written assessment to understand how each student approaches and thinks about maths. This also helps us identify their strengths, areas for improvement, and goals to create a learning plan personalised to their unique needs.  

  • Which curriculum does Mathnasium use to teach primary school maths?

    Mathnasium’s specially trained tutors do not follow a specific curriculum. Instead, we employ a proprietary teaching approach called the Mathnasium Method™.

    Our approach combines personalised learning plans with mental, visual, verbal, tactile, and written techniques to help students develop a deep understanding of maths and grow their knowledge gradually, level by level.

  • What primary school maths topics will your sessions cover?

    We help students master any primary school maths class and topic, including:

    • Addition & Subtraction
    • Multiplication & Division
    • Fractions
    • Decimals
    • Percentages
