Why Choose Mathnasium?
April 22, 2022
Nicole Ostrowski
Mathnasium has been the best investment we have made and after only a few months changed our lives forever with homework, tests and all around attitudes with both kids in math! Which has also freed up time to improve in other subjects! We now always have a new school math test on our fridge with 100% A+. A huge improvement from D’s. We will be continuing our adventure with math through high school to make sure they succeed in uncertain times!

My son has learned so much while going to Mathnasium. He doesn't even complain about going, which is a plus for a teenager. I love the scheduling availability and flexibility. Robin is so nice and always responsive to inquiries.

We tried other programs before finding Mathnasium. It was always a fight and struggle to get our daughter to go, but with Mathnasium she is always willing to go and she is catching up on all that she was struggling with. Thank you.

Robin and her team have been extremely excellent with my daughter Gaby. She has struggled in all subjects in school with math being her lowest grade. It made sense because she was in 7th grade and at a 2nd grade math level. Robin invested her time, love, and energy in holding Gaby accountable and making math fun. Gaby loves loves loves going to tutoring. She goes multiple times a week because Robin is so committed in helping gaby get ready for high school. I love Robin and Mathnasium…. I highly 100/10 recommend Mathnasium!
Thank you ROBIN and your team!
With a lot of gratitude,

We were frustrated that our middle schooler was not learning math at school. We were worried she was never going to understand math and always fail. We took a chance and signed her up for Mathnasium, and within a few months she is passing and loving math for the first time! She never has homework anymore and tests are easy. We just signed up our younger child and we are already seeing a deference in homework ability! The confidence this program has given our children in math is everything!! Thank you!

What can I say? Robin and her team are all wonderful!! My daughter who was struggling with Maths in the past now loves it. She is ahead of her class and gets lots of compliments from her teacher and classmates. I’m so happy with the service. We ca sign up for in-class or online session when needed easily. Robin makes changing the session easy when needed. THANK YOU!!!

Robin goes above and beyond for her clients! She hires great teachers that connect to the students, is always flexible and willing to accommodate changes, and ensures that kids MASTER ALL grade level standards before moving on. With the past year being so unpredictable, it's been comforting to know that my kids are still on track (and even ahead) with grade-level standards!

It would be nice if when you signed up for a session you were able to see the tutors that were going to be there that day. My son has a few that he really likes working with, but we don't have any visibility to when they will be there.
Also, when students are distracting, loud, giggly and disruptive can you be more proactive about quieting them. Several times we were there over the summer my son came out complaining that the "loud girls" where there again and he didn't get much accomplished.

Direct feedback to skills needed. Robin always meets clients needs with a smile on her face. In the past year and a half my child fell significantly behind. It is so comforting to know that even when schools are not able to cover all grade level standards there is a way to ensure they will get the math they need. Thank you!

When we started Mathnasium almost 8 months ago my child was at a 1st grade level of math at school and they are a 4th grader.
Most recent testing my kid is now at a 3rd grade level in math.
That is a huge improvement in such a short amount of time

Both of my sons are excelling in math now and they like it! Huge change from where we were 5 months ago, I love hearing them participate in class and seeing the pride on their faces. Worth every penny and the time we have put into Mathnasium, also Robin is so easy to work with and encouraging. Couldn’t be happier with our results!!

Areli has seen such great improvements. I love that she can't pass on to the next level until she gets almost 100%. Being repetitive is how she learns so it's nice that I know she's not moving on until she understands.

Liliya Voloshin
My two kids always enjoy going to Mathnasium. When we have days off they asked if we have math today. They love their teachers and strategies or materials what they teach and easy for kids to learn.
Thank you to all teachers at Mathnasium.

My son went from depressed and angry with even the word, “math” to telling me now that he loves it! He even wants the t-shirt in their window stating, “I love math!”
He’s so excited after every session because he completed so many pages, and is actually comprehending it!
In six months, he’s improved from 10% knowledge to close to 90% last assessment!
I absolutely recommend Mathnasium for children that have a difficult time with math concepts. They work magic in what they do!

We may return for some brushing up of skills, but my daughter is now in such a better place mathematically! Thank you for your amazing staff, organization, quick to react Covid logistics and overall positive experience we had!

We have only been with Mathnasium for one month and I am blown away with the progress my sons are making and the level of confidence they have achieved. Robin is so easy to work with and helpful, my boys speak highly of the instructors and the way they explain things they don’t understand.

I think it’s helpful but if you want a tutor to help with the math your child is working on at school in that moment, I’m not sure this is the place.

At Mathnasium he learned real math and I need to bring him back because he is already behind.

I think my son has learned more in the 4 weeks he has been enrolled at Mathnasium than the 8 years he has been in school. They are teaching him strategies and giving him the tools he needs to succeed in math.

All the instructors at Mathnasium Happy Valley are wonderful. Very kind and truly work well with kids. Our son is improving with his math skills and starting to enjoy math now. Robin the owner is great to work with also! Very responsive when we have any questions or concerns. She is so great with the kids and has done a fabulous job allowing us to continue Mathnasium from home during the pandemic. We highly recommend Mathnasium if your child is struggling in math. Thanks to all of you at this location for helping Aiden out so much!

Excellant program! My youth is getting the firm foundation she missed in early grade school due to frequent moves.

He is eager to return As soon as we are able!

Robin is incredible.
Great Customer Service and accommodations.

Happy Valley Mathnasium owner Robin Colbran was great to deal with on the phone before we met, during our sons assessment and afterwards with all our questions we had. We signed our son up as he had been struggling in math. We signed up days before Governor Brown shut things down in Oregon. Robin and all of the instructors have been wonderful to deal with during the transition to teaching our son online.

We have been with Mathnasium for a little over a month now and I have seen drastic improvements in both of my kids. Even their teachers have positive things to say and told me that it was worth the money. They were both in Kumon and even though we were happy with that program, we are seeing more results with Mathnasium and I am very excited to see what they will accomplish at the end of the school year.

Great math tutoring clinic. My son worked with a college grad who majored in physics. When it was busy at the clinic, he only had to share the tutor with two other kids. He received a lot of attention to his work. Positive people and atmosphere. Would go here again.

When I first started looking for a math tutoring service for my 10 year old daughter I felt apprehensive, I didn't where where to start, who to trust, what place would be best fitting for her. I came across Mathnesium in Happy Valley through the sign that was posted outside and at the same period of time I was told by a friend that Mathnesium had excellent methods of teaching math. By this recommendation, I was determined to sign up. And I am so glad I did!
After just a couple of months of attending, my daughter who had great deficits in math skills has shown great improvement, she is approaching math confidently as her math skills are becoming less and less challenging. She excitingly looks forward to her next lessons. It is the best thing I could do for her.
Robin and the staff are very kind and dedicated and I can see the efforts they make to ensure the student's progress. I highly recommend Mathnesium in Happy Valley and can't say enough words of appreciation. The location is a plus!
