Mathnasium of Boerum Hill is a great resource for our daughter to supplement her regular school curriculum. She is motivated and actually looks forward to going. The staff is great and flexible. Scheduling makeups is a breeze. If your child is ahead in school and needs additional challenges I highly recommend them.

My kids do not like doing academic work, but somehow they enjoy going to Mathnasium. Both have told me they have an easier time following along in Math class in school, and they are doing well. I think the instructors are passionate about Math and capable of teaching in a way that makes sense to kids-- a winning combination. Couldn't be happier.

Both my children loved the warm, professional environment with little distraction and lots of attention. Without a doubt, it boosted both their confidence and their interest in math. We were so impressed with the level of communication and personal interest that Mathnasium brought to the table. Two thumbs up.

My son is not a fan of math but mathnasium is the one place associated with the subject that he enjoys attending. The staff is attentive and patient, they work at his pace while keeping him engaged enough to want to do more. The past year has been a positive learning experience for my son and I'd recommend the program to anyone.

My daughter was failing math miserably two years ago. She had lost all confidence in her ability to understand and do math. Since she began attending Mathnasium summer of 2016 she has made trimindous improvement. She passed the NYS math exam in 8th grade and she passed first semester algebra 1 in high school and just started her first day of algebra 2 yesterday. Mathnasium is a great resource for my daughter and continues to be. It’s the best choice we made for our daughter.

We're so happy we decided to enroll our son! Everyone at Mathnasium Boerum Hill are incredibly caring and it shows in their results. In just 6 months, our son went from crying in frustration over his math homework, to confidently doing it by himself without any help from Mom or Dad! On his first 4th Grade report card, he received his first "4" in Math; the highest grade possible. He still may not necessarily enjoy his math homework, but he definitely has the skils to get through it with ease. Thank you!!

My son first started Mathnasium in 6th grade, with the support he received here he was able to increase his grade from a 2.8 to a 3.5 in less than 9 months. He has a better understanding of those fundamental concepts and is now set to complete his algebra regents in 8th grade. Thank you Mathnasium for your support

My daughter's grades and math understanding improved greatly while in Mathnasium. The staff is wonderful and accommodating. I was always kept updated on her progress and any concerns I had were addressed promptly and in a satisfactory manner.
The program is flexible and I was always able to switch times or reschedule appointment with zero hassle.

Great, attentive and communicative staff. The team is a well-oil machine, and gives each child special attention. I also really appreciate how open and honest feedback about my child and different learning environments are. Often I had questions and the team was always very responsive in a timely manner. Most importantly my daughter learned to love math again, actually begged to not miss game night and even asked to double her time at Mathnasium. That is statement enough I think. :)

My daughter is overall happy with the help from Mathnasium, but I wish you had more proactive communications about her progress.
I'm in the dark in terms of how much progress she has made in the 3-4 months she has been attending to Mathnasium.

Response From Mathnasium of Boerum Hill

Hi Gui,
Thank you for the 9/10 Listen360 review. As a small business owner, we rely heavily on good reviews to attract new students and so I take them very seriously. I also take your concern about not receiving enough feedback very seriously.
The truth is Gui that I spend my entire morning, every morning, providing parents with feedback. It's enormously time consuming but important work and cannot happen in the afternoon because the quality of the education is my #1 priority.
Those parents that ask for updates get them regularly. All you ever have to do is ask. I mean that sincerely. I have parents that ask for an update every two weeks and they receive it promptly. I'm happy to do it.
Now with my high school students, I usually don't hear from parents unless there is an issue with their child's school grades. From my perspective, no news is good news and as long as the student is attending regularly and bringing their course work so we can assist them, all is well. It's usually my younger students that require much more parent involvement and so that's where my mornings are usually spent.
Please know that all you ever have to do is ask. I'm sorry I didn't make that clear from the beginning.
With that said, I owe you an update on Carolina's progress! Please allow me to consult with my two education directors this afternoon and you'll hear from me within 24 hours. That's guaranteed!
I sincerely appreciate your business. We're very happy to have Carolina in our program. I hope her hard work has been paying dividends in the classroom. She's very proactive in letting us know when she will be attending and when she needs to reschedule. This helps us do our job more efficiently.
Look for an email from us by tomorrow regarding her progress.
Best regards,
CarlMay 30, 2017

Mathnasium is a clean and well organized center. The staff is friendly, helpful and professional. Generally very accommodating with schedule conflicts and responsive with inquiries via email. My daughter enjoys going and finds it helpful with her math advancement. I find their Progress Report simple yet informative. Would definitely recommend friends.

Great program! The way the schools are teaching math is so very different from the way I learned it. Mathnasium is good with navigating this new system. The "team" is responsive to my last minute suggestions on areas to focus on even when it deviates from their program. I know that I must supplement my child's math education, Mathnasium made it easy to do!

My 11 year old daughter who "hates math" LOVES coming to Mathnasium!
She has even asked me if she can come 3 times a week instead of just two.
When I asked what she liked about it, my daughter replied "they explain stuff in a way I can understand" and "everyone she has worked with is really nice".
I know she is doing better in math in school already, and she is definitely much more confident in her abilities.

My daughter liked each of the tutors she worked with and actually looked forward to going. Going to Mathnasium helped her feel more secure in Algebra last year and probably helped her pass it. She also liked that the tutors gave her a sense of agency/ that she was helping to guide her own learning and ask for specific help for what she needed. We are s big fan of Mathnasium!

My son loves Mathnasium! He looks forward to going to his tutoring hours after school. He was moved to the accelerated math class in his middle school this year. I think this was due to the time he spent at Mathnasium in his 6th grade Spring. We told a friend of ours about Mathnasium and she has her son going now.

My daughter actually likes Math but was always frustrated because no one has ever taught her less complicated ways to solve math problems. However, after the first session at Mathnasium, she said to me, "this is what Miss D.... Was trying to teach me all this time." She loves Mathnasium and the way they make math make sense👍👍👍.

Hi, I was recommended to Mathnasium by a friend and I enrolled my son in November and before the end of the school year we saw great results. He learned great skills that he was able to direct to his other subjects. Not only did he go from a -C student to a solid B+ student in math but his overall average improved. We are so very pleased with Mathnasium. It was worth the time and money. I will be enrolling him this school year. He will be entering the eighth grade. Many of his frustrations with math has gone away and that's comforting for me as a parent.

Hello. I'm Karen Ostrowski, Educational Director of Mathnasium of Boerum Hill, your neighborhood math-only learning center. We help kids in grades K-12 understand math by teaching the way that makes sense to them.
When math makes sense, kids leap way ahead – whether they started out far behind or already ahead in math. Our formula for teaching kids math, the Mathnasium Method™ has transformed the way kids learn math for over a decade across 800+ centers in the US and Canada:
Our specially trained math instructors will teach your child how to understand math in an individual setting – our unique approach enables us to effectively explain math concepts and lend a helping hand to every student. Our tutors foster a caring, encouraging environment that helps kids thrive and learn!
Mathnasium instructors use our unique assessment process to determine (with great accuracy) exactly what each child knows and what they need to learn. Next, we design a customized learning plan for teaching the concepts the student needs to master. It doesn’t stop there – our encouraging instructors continually check progress along the way to make sure kids truly understand and retain the concepts we’ve taught. The results are transformative – kids will see measurable changes in attitude, confidence, and school progress.
Our instructors will also set aside time to provide homework help. We help kids understand the homework assignment so they feel better prepared to complete the work at home – underscoring their understanding of concepts and transforming homework frustration into a welcome challenge.
