Why Choose Mathnasium?

It’s been eight months and my child continues to enjoy Mathnasium. The performance difference between when he started and now is very noticeable in his school testing. He seems very proud of his accomplishments. We aim to go 10 times a month and usually get in at least 8-9 per month. It’s sometimes a difficult commitment because that is 8-10 times he can’t be doing something else. But the hours are pretty flexible. He has gone up two levels. We like the progress reports we get. We will continue the program.

My daughter has really sharpened her math skills since starting Mathnasium. Last year with all zoom and just pass/fail left many learning gaps that Mathnasium identified and helped her boost those missing skills.

So far so good! Ryan enjoys going to Mathnasium and does seem to be more confident in his skills. The feedback we get from the center is thorough. The location is great as it is down the street from his middle school and he can walk there directly after school is dismissed.

Very friendly staff. Well organized. After an assessment we started my son on his program.
You can spend any proportion of the time on homework help, reinforcement of past knowledge or new learning. It's up to you. Highly recommend.

Our son Zachary has gone from being frustrated with Math to enjoying it and understanding it.
He is proud of his improvement and that he is a little bit ahead of his 3rd grade peer group in understanding math. Clearly the change is due to the staff at Mathnasium who make math fun and understandable.

My son has made a tremendous improvement in his math literacy. He went from being 2 grades behind to now being placed in accelerated math and having a love of math; all within 16 months. I am thrilled with his progress and the staff at Mathnasium.

Mathnasium has been a fantastic option for our 2nd grader! Where she once struggled with math now she’s gaining knowledge and increasing confidence. But the most-amazing development is her new love of math. She protests most events in her schedule but is always happy to keep her appointments at Mathnasium. Thank you for helping my daughter develop her “beautiful mind”.

We generally like the ease and flow of how Mathnasium works. Our only issue is that Luke thinks it is a bit easy and sometimes does not feel a connection to the different instructors.
He was tired when he took the assessment test at the beginning and thinks that some of the mathnasium work is a waste of time. I understand the template of how mathnasium works - both on current work and going back to fundamentals to build capacity / competence. I do think - however - it would be good to re-test or connect with student at various levels to get a more accurate baseline. Some of the "plan" that is being used for my sone is based on one test he took after a long day and he just skipped several questions to get to the end. I believe some of the data was taken has he did not know the information.
Small re-assessments might better pinpoint what he should be working on when he comes in each week.
Thanks.

Friendly friendly staff! Super flexible to schedule appointments- can change and change again at the last minute. Tutors are eager and patient to help. My daughter has progressed a ton in a year and a half. My only complaint is the price. It seems a little high but everything is these days!!

My daughter has started showing some confidence with Math. She likes going to the sessions. We go twice a week. Staff is very friendly and can accommodate last minute schedule changes. I’m very happy with daughter progression.

We brought our 2nd grader to you in hopes of helping her learn to like and appreciate math. Now she loves it! Her attitude has improved 100% and that makes her more interested in doing the work and learning. Her scores have improved but it's her attitude that is the biggest surprise. She now understands the relationship between putting in the work and seeing better scores and admiration from her parents and teachers. When I ask her; "hey, do you want to go to Mathnasium after school?", she always says, "sure, I love that place".

Mathnasium has been great! Daughters been going for a little over a year and half. Her grades went from C’s and D’s to A’s. During homework time she used to cry and struggle now she completes work fast and feels confident and strong in math.

8yo son about to start 3rd grade this summer avoided math studies--math seemed to frustrate him during the height of the pandemic.
After starting Mathnasium in early August he is more relaxed and actually is enjoying math.
His change regarding math was noticed by some friends, who signed up their 8yo son to start Mathnasium as well.

This place is magical - my son is motivated and having fun learning math. Absolutely no complaints other than that he wishes he could have gotten more done and wants to go several times a week. It’s a win-win. We have only been attending for a month. Very flexible scheduling Karen has been responsive to our needs.

I am thrilled with the progress my son has made over the past 8 months. There have been several instructors at Mathnasium who have made a big impact on him as well. We are going into a new school year fully prepared. Thank you!

Such a great experience! Mathnasium was able to help all three of my children get caught up in math. At a time when all the schools were closed, Mathnasium was there to help with one on one in person instruction!

Jennifer Barron
We couldn't be happier with our experience. Our daughter went from slightly below grade level when we started, to nearly completing the next grade level's standards in a matter of months. She is now confident in her math abilities, so rather than dreading school math assignments she breezes right through them with time to spare. Save yourself the time and frustration of trying to help with math homework that we adults don't understand, and have the experts at Mathnasium take over.

My son went from went from dreading math problems as they were taught in his school(poorly), to looking forward to his Mathnasium classes and completing math problems with confidence and success. Some scheduling flexibility with his classes is a bonus.

The team at Mathnasium in LJ is fantastic. They are friendly and welcoming and make math fun. Our son has been going to Mathnasium for enrichment during the Covid situation since it was in person and since our son’s school only had math for 9 weeks on then 9 weeks off. Mathnasium kept his skills up during the off times and accelerated his skills during the on times. We highly recommend Mathnasium for math!

I feel so relieved knowing my son has regular, consistent help with his math homework as well as more in-depth teaching of foundational methodologies to build upon as he progresses through school. The staff is always super helpful with scheduling, and I appreciate the regular feedback they send regarding my son's progress through the program. Thank you so much!

Mathnasium is a great complement to my daughter’s high school curriculum/class. Mathnasium provides the more detailed support with homework, as well as provides guidance to help her feel confident in understanding the material. It has really made a difference.

Our daughter has transformed from a kid who struggled through every bit of her math to a kid who is confident and has a 100% in her math class! Her growth is not a fluke - Mathnasium La Jolla has been a game changer for us. Andrew and the team are kind, patient, supportive, and are confidence builders. I highly recommend the center whether to catch up on skills, maintain, or get ahead of the curve.

Mathnasium makes math fun! My son really enjoys going to Mathnasium for math enrichment and he is especially happy that it is in person. It is a welcome change from online learning.
Also, all of the staff at Mathnasium are not only very friendly but also incredibly knowledgeable in math. We are pleased with our decision to supplement our son’s math education with Mathnasium. Keep up the great work Mathnasium!

My daughter has been a Mathnasium student for a year/3x weekly and what a turn around we have experienced. This program has helped her build foundational Math skills and, more importantly, improve her overall confidence in her abilities. She actually looks forward to going to get the help. The staff are friendly and accommodating. In particular, Andrew is a great Manager and my daughter really enjoyed working with Jonathan.

Mathnasium has everything handled for me. All I need to do is bring my children there and I can be assured they will be challenged and will be developing the skills they need to progress in math. Everyone is very responsive to my requests and the whole site runs very smoothly and safely. Most of all, I appreciate the in person learning, and the absence of screens!

Mathnasium La Jolla is the best! Our daughter has transformed from a kid who “hated” doing math to a 6th grader that actually enjoys it now and has 100% in her class. We owe it to Andrew and the great tutors that have helped guide her and build her confidence.

We are so happy that Mathnasium is in-person. My son is tired of online learning.

We've taken advantage of the video time during the stay at home mandate and now have continued it as it is convenient for us and we aren't ready to share spaces yet. I would like to recommend a little but more one on one time with a student in a teaching capacity. In addition, on line sessions seem to have a bit of down time waiting for an instructor if the student doesn't understand how to solve the problem. Offering 12 sessions in a month rather than the 10 sessions may equalize that out.

My daughters have improved from struggling with math to excelling at math. What's more, they have learned to love the subject and appreciate it much more. Thank you, Mathnasium! Great work!

My daughter has really started to enjoy math now, instead of always being intimidated by it. She still has a way to go with “catching up” but has already made gains in her first month and is starting to show confidence in her abilities. The staff are so patient and explain in a way where she is understanding and connecting. They make it fun and enjoyable and she says it’s now her favorite place to go.

We recommend your services at a 10 for children that are driven to excel in math. Our son Lucas grew tremendously in the program, going from 3rd grade to 5th grade math. Our son Dylan, which is why we joined the program, initially improved, but plateaued and really wasn't engaged in the program for the past 6 months.

Honestly, Andrew and his team have been wholly responsible for my daughter’s ability to move through her high school curriculum with success. She’s a hard-worker, but math has always been her Achilles heel. They have provided her with unending support throughout the last 3.5 years, and we could not be more grateful.
