Frequently Asked Questions

We welcome you to contact your local Mathnasium Learning Center with any questions you may have about early childhood math tutoring. Here are some of the more common ones we get:

How can I start teaching my child math even before they enter school?

Parents can serve as math tutors for children by talking about math concepts to help reduce their child’s frustrations with math subjects down the road. Introducing simple, foundational math can include activities like counting with your child, playing with blocks to improve spatial reasoning, and using music or sports to reinforce simple concepts.
Is there a way to tell that my child needs math help before they go to elementary school?

Some signs that your child needs help with pre-math concepts during their pre-school years include not being able to understand changes in quantities or count. They may have trouble choosing which shapes are larger or smaller than others.

Every child is different and learns at their own pace, but if you have concerns about whether your child needs pre-elementary math help, early childhood math tutoring can identify and resolve concerns.
How can I prepare my child for elementary school math?

One of the best ways to prepare your child is to enroll them in math tutoring for little kids. At home, you can read books with them that build simple concepts. Many board games for young children also involve some element of math.

Point out ideas about position, direction, size, shape, and space with items around the house. Present them with simple “problems” involving numbers and help them solve them at home to supplement instruction from math tutors for children.
Can you get your child a math tutor before they enter kindergarten?

Yes! Mathnasium has specially trained math tutors for children as young as four years old. With short, poignant lessons that are easy to grasp and fun to learn, our math tutors can impact the course of children’s lives.

By making learning fun at this very early age, early childhood math tutoring can help to nurture a passion for learning and set up a base for self-confidence and independence.
How can I make sure my child is prepared to enter kindergarten?

Your child should have a healthy grasp of several pre-math skills. These include concepts like number sense, measurements, counting, patterns, shape identification, and spatial relations.

They should recognize the simple ways that quantities change as well as the connections between numbers and items. Your child will be prepared for kindergarten if they understand the concept of more or less as well as estimating. Math tutoring for little kids is an incredible way to help your little one prepare for kindergarten!
What are some ways to introduce math into your toddler's everyday life?

You can introduce math into every day by talking about patterns your toddler comes across in architecture or nature. Taking a “shape walk” is a fun idea, and you can encourage comparisons. Ask your child to think out loud about their problem-solving adventures. If they are in a program for early childhood math tutoring, ask them questions about what they learned each session.

Above all else, make every introduction fun to help them remain engaged. Short, simple lessons are key.
How can I start teaching my toddler basic math skills?

A great way to teach toddlers basic math skills is by using teaching aids disguised as toys. Role-play in areas like pretend kitchens and grocery stores. Use collections from nature to teach them to sort and analyze groups. Encourage them to use sculpting clay, help them draw maps, and let them help you measure for baking.

Math tutors for children are specially trained to incorporate fun into even the most basic math lessons, even for toddlers.
How long will my child’s assessment take?

The maximum time expected for an assessment is 90 minutes to ensure a thorough evaluation, but the duration may vary depending on the grade level and the subject being assessed.

During the assessment, we start with a fun verbal warm-up, take breaks as needed, and check in with your child every 5-10 minutes while they work on the written assessment. This helps build their confidence and provides us with valuable insights that we can share with you.

Our goal is to ensure that every evaluation is thorough, precise, and tailored to your child's needs. We understand that you want the best for your child, and so do we. That's why we take the time to provide you with all the information you need to support your child's academic success.
What if my child is nervous about taking an assessment?

It's totally understandable for a child to feel nervous about taking an assessment, but our caring staff will be there to support your child throughout the assessment process, ensuring they feel comfortable and confident. We want your child to know that the assessment is simply a tool we use to identify areas where they may need extra support and areas where they excel, allowing us to tailor our sessions to meet their specific needs.
