Math is the cornerstone of every child's access to a college education. Mathnasium provides and enhances every participating student the opportunity to enter college or enter college with more confidence and potential. I can't wait to see the results after my son's first full year of instruction via Mathnasium.

My son loves math & Mathnasium. He said he feels like when he's there people understand what he is talking about. He gets the challenge he needs. He becomes analytical, not just in math but also in some areas of his life. His grades are all A's. He said he has lots of friends there & they're all wonderful. His favorite instructors are Matt, Jimmy, Bryan, Sarah, Alexis, and Jane.

My daughter was struggling with a D in 6th grade math last year in private school with a classroom size of about 10 students. She wanted to go to public school for 7th grade so I elected to start her in mathnasium over the summer so she was ready for 7th grade. This built her confidence so she asked to be enrolled in accelerated math for 7th grade. I was hesitant but allowed her knowing mathnasium could support her if she met challenges. She has maintained an A in accelerated math this year so far.

My daughter joined Mathnasium in October of 2018 we signed her up because she was unsuccessful at passing the standardized math test for high school graduation it was the best decision our family had ever made she went from struggling in math to finished in the year with a 105% the staff at math Mathnasium is absolutely outstanding as a teenage girl it can be difficult for a teen to be comfortable receiving tutoring anywhere and it was not one night that said she was not willing to attend. Some night she was actually excited to go with the awards that she will receive for completing tasks she was overjoyed by her progress she was making it built her confidence and self-esteem. Thank You Mathnasium.

My son really likes it there which is surprising that a boy age 16 enjoys going to Math tutoring. I believe he was sick of being left behind struggling in math for years . So he was willing to put in the effort to get tutored. But I never imagined that he'd actually enjoy it. He feels very comfortable there , like he's amongst friends. You guys have a great approach with the the students making them feel comfortable and at home . Thank you

Very polite office explains what exactly you get for the cost. Was very impressed that you offer help to college kids because that’s so hard to find. My so. Hasxalways struggled math. He had his first test after going there a week and passed. I am very impressed they get enough one on one time 90 minutes to take the time to really help them.

My daughter was not experiencing success in her middle school math class. We started sending her to mathnasium and her test scores and confidence improved so significantly that her older brother asked if he could also attend. They both have solid As in math now, but more importantly Mathnasium has improved their number sense and ensured that they weren't missing any essential math concepts. In a common core math world where kids use too many computers and calculators in their math classes, Mathnasium is a great resource for our family. I can't recommend it enough.

So far we've been very pleased with the level of service we've received. My daughter was struggling in her accelerated class and each instructor she's had has been very attentive and her confidence has soared as a result. She is still challenged, but you all have made a world of difference in her progress! Thank you

My son Robby Coggins have worked with the great staff at Dunkirk Mathnasium. He always said how much he enjoyed going to Mathnasium and look forward to time for him to go.
Mathnasium has helped my son in many ways that he scored a perfect SAT Math score.
Now Robby is training to be an instructor at Mathnasium.
Thanks Ms. Kama and staff for always willing to go the extra mile.

Mathnasium is the best! My high school daughter was struggling with understanding some of the more advanced concepts of Algebra. Her grades were suffering and she was losing confidence in her ability to grasp the material. Going to Mathnasium has helped tremendously. Her grades has improved and her confidence is back! She just recently scored 100% on a critical test which has boosted her overall grade. She looks forward to her Mathnasium sessions and often comments on how well the instructors are able to explain the material in a way that helps her understand it. I highly recommend the Dunkirk location. This is absolutely money well spent and is helping to provide a solid foundation which will help my daughter in high school and beyond.

I would love to be able to send my daughter but the monthly fee is too steep. I would refer anyone looking for help for their child.
I wish you had and option to buy sessions ala cart that you could use whenever your child needed additional or specific help on a competency. My daughter grasps the concepts of math easily and readily but occasionally she runs into something like square roots.

My son at age 17 is learning math principles now that he should have learned in middle school. He received quality assistance during a portion of the 2[PHONE NUMBER REMOVED] school year with his homework such that in the final quarter he increased his math grade SIGNIFICANTLY.
Staff patiently and thoroughly explain any math problem procedures as many times as my son requires until he understands the correct procedure for solving the math problem. When my son inquires why his math solving procedure was incorrect, they are able to explain and demonstrate where he made his errors in a clear and methodical step by step manner.

I can't believe the difference Mathnasium makes. If you're on the fence because of the cost, like I was; I can honestly say it was so very much worth every single penny. Not just for my childs improved math skills, but his renewed self confidence makes it priceless. Now if they only had a handwriting-nasium. ;)

Our son needed the refresher. I heard so many times oh..I forgot, oh I forgot but now I know. Nice to know that he knows before he gets tested and realizes he forgot!
This is such a valuable resource to solidify what our son has learned in school. Mathnasium adds a fun twist and thankfully they are local!
Friendly staff that really seem to care.

My son Patrick was getting D's and Es in math. We went to great lengths to learn the common core math with no success. So we were not able to help him with homework. We could show him how to do adding, subtracting the so called OldWay and he would understand. After speaking with his math teacher it was clear that I was just confusing him further. My Mother In Law signed. Patrick and Morgan. We saw results almost immediately on his report card and test papers no longer had red pen markings over most of the page. Patrick enjoys going to Mathnasium ! He now gets Bs and a rare C!

All of the instructors are very "bubbly", which makes the kids excited to come there and learn. They are all taught in the same fashion, so no matter who works with your child that day, it stays consistent. It's a very fun environment for them to learn. My daughter has brought her grade up by 2 grades in a very short amount of time. I highly recommend Mathnasium to anyone who's child is struggling.

When your daughter comes home from Mathnasium and tells you that she "NOW" enjoys learning math ... when your daughter tells you that she is now more confident in math... when your daughter tells you that the people who work with her at Mathnesium are all friendly, knowledgable and personable ... when your daughter tells you she wanted another math section on the SAT as she felt more prepared than her SAT test prior to Mathnasium --- you know you have made a great investment in a great business with great results!

Hello. I'm Matt Cleary, Center Director of Mathnasium of Dunkirk, your neighborhood math-only learning center. We help kids in grades 2nd through 12th 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 1,000+ 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.
