We’re More Structured than Private Tutors

Private tutors are great for helping with homework to get through a class, but they don’t have a curriculum that focuses on foundational understanding. Mathnasium delivers the same personal connection as private tutors along with an instructional method that works.

Math Isn’t Just What We Teach, It’s All We Teach

Large, multi-disciplinary learning centers lack the dedication to math required to get the kind of results parents and students are seeking. And smaller math-only learning centers lack the large-scale capabilities to develop a tested and proven curriculum.

We Teach at the Right Pace for the Individual

Schools have excellent math teachers, but with a full classroom it's impossible to keep some kids from falling behind and advanced kids from being held back.

Comparing Other Options

Get answers to the following questions before choosing a math-learning program.

  • Do you specialize exclusively in mathematics?

    Yes. Since our inception, we have been dedicated to delivering the world’s premier after-school mathematics program. Our focused approach means better results.

  • Will my child receive face-to-face instruction?

    That’s the only way we work! There are no group lectures or classes. We encourage engagement and questions — they help your child learn.

  • How do you help students?

    We build mastery layer by layer, engaging students with challenging material that develops number sense, mental math ability, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills.

  • How will you address my child’s specific learning needs?

    After our comprehensive assessment process, your child receives a fully customized learning plan. Our math experts will tailor their instruction to your child's individual learning needs and style.

  • Who develops your curriculum?

    Mathnasium’s education experts create a proprietary curriculum specifically for our unique approach. We don’t use off-the-shelf materials designed for classroom-style learning.

  • Will my child enjoy attending?

    Yes! Students love our engaging instructors, the thrill of solving problems, and the exhilaration of accomplishment. Our reward incentives and in-center activities also help to make Mathnasium a favorite destination.

  • How does this approach compare with private tutoring?

    Unlike private tutors, our curriculum and methodology have been proven through the success of hundreds of thousands of students. Backed by the extensive training and resources of a global organization, our instructors provide better, more focused instruction, typically at a lower cost.

  • Will you help my child with their math homework?

    Yes. We can set aside time during sessions specifically for homework help. This takes the burden off parents and helps keep your child on track in school.

  • Will you give my child homework?

    No. All learning occurs under the efficient and effective guidance of our trained instructors. Adding homework would risk frustration and overload.
