A: Groft Family: "They are always friendly at Mathnasium, and very flexible with scheduling. Julie, the director, is always so professional and kind. The program is helping my daughter's confidence in math and helping with her gaps. Her test scores have improved so much!"

Fowler Family: "The relationship between mathematical attitude and mathematical achievement can not be denied. The enthusiasm of the Mathnasium instructors has a direct impact on building the same love of math in their students. With this as a foundation, Mathnasium instructors encourage their students to explore the competencies of math and build connections through a variety of teaching methods. This leads students beyond the rules-based procedures and into the discovery process. Every student needs a math-minded role model like the instructors at Mathnasium."
