Q: Will my child have the same instructors and experience as they would at my neighborhood Mathnasium Learning Centre?
Yes! The same highly trained, caring instructors that work in the centre will work with your child using Mathnasium@home. They’ll use the same Mathnasium Method™ our customers know and love, tailored to your child’s exact educational needs. Mathnasium@home even includes our fun rewards program.
Q: What do I need to use @home?
All you need is a computer that has a microphone and an internet connection. That’s it!
"We love Mathnasium. It was a tremendous help with my girls, and we enjoyed Mathnasium@home from the comfort of their rooms. I always recommend Mathnasium and wish I would have found it sooner." — Angela P.
Q: When will my local centre offer @home math tutoring?
Mathnasium of Windermere Edmonton is now offering @home option.
Q: Does it work as well as in-centre learning?
Definitely. We tested @home with thousands of students, who found it to be just as effective as in-centre learning. They will gain confidence, boost their grades and scores, learn critical thinking and problem-solving skills, and gain a real understanding of how math works that will help them in school and life.
Q: How is Mathnasium@home different from other online math tutoring?
Unlike other online tutoring services, Mathnasium does not use pre-recorded videos, teach a large group of children at once (classroom style), use untrained math tutors, instruct using rote memorization or mindless algorithmic practice, or offer automated drills or games. Instead, Mathnasium@home delivers the same live, expert math instruction we pioneered in 2002. Mathnasium@home offers:
- Live, face-to-face instruction
- Focused interaction between instructor and student
- Instructors fully trained in the Mathnasium Method™
- A personalized learning plan for each student
- True math comprehension rather than rote memorization
Live, personalized instruction is simply the most effective method for teaching math in a way that children enjoy. It’s the only way we teach, regardless of where learning takes place.
Q: Do I have to be enrolled at Mathnasium to have Mathnasium@home?
The @home service is available to both current and newly enrolled students. Please call us at 780.481.1031 to enroll your child.
Q: How much does Mathnasium@home cost? How many sessions do you include?
Mathnasium@home provides the same great value and costs the same as standard enrollment with your learning centre. Children typically attend the same number of sessions per week as they would in a centre. Only the delivery method changes.
Q: My child is new to Mathnasium. How can they get started?
Contact us at 780.481.1031 ([email protected]) to schedule an assessment. A comprehensive assessment will pinpoint your child’s exact strengths and weaknesses so that we can develop a personalized learning plan.
Q: Why is Mathnasium@home launching now? Does it have anything to do with the COVID-19 pandemic?
Development of Mathnasium@home began more than three years ago to address the needs of families who couldn't bring their children regularly into the centres due to busy school-year schedules, geographical distance, vacation or home-schooling. After successful testing, we planned to make it available to learning centres gradually throughout 2020. When public health concerns suddenly required that students stay at home, we expedited the rollout so that students could continue without interruption.
Q: How has the initial response been to the service?
We’ve far exceeded expectations. Families love the convenience of @home, and they’re especially grateful for this option now that their kids are out of school.
Kids show keen interest in learning and progress … And in this hour of pandemic, we are very happy with the online classes. I definitely recommend and will continue with Mathnasium for my kids. — Maninder K.
Q: Can my child return to in-centre learning after the stay-at-home period is over?
Absolutely. Your Mathnasium enrollment is valid for both in-centre and @home learning, and you can choose to continue with @home or transition easily to in-centre.
