Steve & Sandy Massey

Owners
Hello. We are Steve and Sandy Massey, owners/operators of Mathnasium of Fort Myers. Our relationship with Mathnasium began in 2012 when our son enrolled in Mathnasium to improve his Algebra skills. Our story may be similar to yours. After many evenings of ineffective homework help and frankly, lots of family stress, we went in search of math tutoring for our son. What we found was a math learning method that turned our son’s grades around in a few short months and profoundly spiked his overall confidence and interest in math. The Mathnasium method proved to be much more beneficial than one-on-one tutoring and improved our family life tremendously. We were so impressed with the Mathnasium model and the successful method of making math make sense that we've taken ownership of our fourth center here in Fort Myers.

Linda Roberts

Director of Growth
Linda grew up in Huntington, WV and is an avid fan of Marshall University football (Go Herd!). She earned her B.A. in Philosophy from West Virginia University and M.B.A. from Averett University. She comes to us after an 18-year career in higher education, where she has served as a Dean, Executive Director of Adult Programs, and Campus President. She is excited to serve the community and see children learn math while developing confidence each day. She has a nurturing approach to leadership and believes that the sky is truly the limit for all of our Mathnasium family!

Lillian Wray

Marketing Coordinator
Lillian is a freshman at The University of Cincinnati, where she is studying Industrial Design. She began her time at Mathnasium as an Instructor when she was a junior at Oviedo High School. Now, as the Marketing Coordinator, Lillian is excited to bring her design expertise to Mathnasium. While her passions have newly been focused on design, math has been a lasting love for Lillian since elementary school. It will forever be her favorite subject that helped shape her into the problem solver she is today.

Our Mathnasium Mission

Teach children math so they understand it, master it, and love it. Math can change their lives, and they can change the world.

What I love about Mathnasium is the ability to teach problem-solving skills and make math make sense, while also making a student smile.
