Aug 28, 2019
Rrrribit! Hey math students and math tutors, we have a math problem that is so great it will have you jumping for joy! Math is fun when you can look at a problem from all angles and use your critical thinking skills to figure out the solution.
Practice your elementary math skills such as fractions, distance, multiplication and division with this toad-ally amazing word problem challenge! Take a look at the question and see if you can figure it out. We know you can!
Question: A frog croaks 1 time when a storm is 1 mile (5,280 feet) away. When the storm is half of a mile away, the frog croaks 2 times. When the storm is one-third of a mile away, the frog croaks 3 times. How many feet away is the storm when the frog croaks 5 times?

The kids are excited about Math. They are excited to go each time, to earn points more than anything, but along the way they are learning. So much for the pursuit of higher education for knowledge itself, when you can earn points for prizes. But since you have to learn and improve along the way and the materials get more demanding as you rise, you get the result in a painless (?) process. Brilliant.

Please know how much your company means To my family !!
When Covid is over , can we still do zoom classes ? The option to have online tutoring and not have to drive my child to you as I sit in the car has changed my life . We live about 40 mins always . Please keep the online zoom, this helps parents immensely.
Thank you for all the great work !!

My daughter has retained a lot of the teachings she has had from the centers instructors. It’s helped her keep her grade up and I couldn’t be more happier. The people here at this center really listen to what she needs and apply every bit of bit she needs. I’ve been at another center before and this one just can’t compare to it. Thanks Laurelwood center! We couldn’t be any happier!

All counselors, especially the lead counselor and the site director are great! They teach my son not only math skills but also time management of taking test etc. I am very happy to see my son's progress! He is almost one year ahead of his grade level now. Mathnasium is doing fantastic job in motivating my son to learn math! Thank you.

My daughter struggled in math but ever since she's been attending Mathnaisum I can see she is more comfortable with solving problems, and she is grasping concepts better. She is eager to go to her sessions and likes all the instructors. I would highly recommend Mathnasium to any of my friends and relatives.

Our son was excited about Mathnasium right from the start. He didn’t find the evaluation test daunting or stressful but rather challenging and intriguing. He enjoyed his first complimentary lesson so much that he couldn’t wait to start the program. It is a delight to see him so thrilled and proud to share the new concepts he learns with us. We can’t wait to see the impact Mathnasium has on him as he starts Middle School in August.

When my child was in kindergarten and first grade, she was getting discouraged that she wasn’t learning as quickly as some of her peers as school. She was never behind and was just one of the youngest kids in for her grade. She was doubting herself and was developing a negative association with learning math. She was more comfortable practicing with her Mathnasium tutors than her own parents. After two years, math is now one of her stronger subjects at school and she enjoys completing extra math homework for fun. On her last day of second grade, her teacher announced she was one of a handful of students who aced the last unit test. (It’s ok to use my comments, but I would like to keep my name private.)

I was a math class skeptic. My husband wanted my girls to get extra math so they become confident in their math skills and I could not argue with that, but the kicker was that my girls wanted to take the classes. And then...they LOVED them. Every time we had to take a break b/c of our schedule, the girls would ask to go back.
I love the flexibility of the set up. The teachers are young and relate to my kids. Very professional.

My daughters greatly benefitted from Mathanasium. I liked their system of reviews/testing to ensure that students understood units properly. One of my daughters was below grade level and now she is performing at the grade level above her actual grade. I am thrilled to see her changed attitude towards Math as she has gained a lot of confidence in Math and her outlook towards Math is very positive which certainly gives us peace of mind! I highly recommend Mathanasium to all families who are looking for good Math learning centers.

I already recommended Mathnasium to two people who ended up signing up (one at Laurelwood and one in Foster City), because my son Daniel started Mathnasium last year (Oct 2016) and it helped a lot. He had to cover a lot of material at his school because he moved to a school that was one year ahead in math. At first, Daniel was “frozen” from the pressure but the very next week after signing up for Mathnasium his attitude was more relaxed and he started getting >=90% in his tests and though his homework would still take a longer time, he got things done. So, thank you!!! We will continue coming & recommending!
