With schools being closed until the end of the school year, the question for us was, how can we provide families with the math learning & tutoring support they need at home, without sacrificing the face-to-face interaction that is the heart and soul of the Mathnasium Method™? We’re so excited to share that, we can now give families in our community precisely what they want and need: Mathnasium@home. Since launching this online learning platform, families have flooded us with questions about how the service works and how they can sign up! We answer some of your frequently asked questions below.
Q: What is Mathnasium@home?
Mathnasium@home is the same face-to-face math instruction used in our centers for over 15 years, delivered in real-time through your computer.
Q: Will my child have the same instructors and experience as they would at my neighborhood Mathnasium Learning Center?
Yes! The same highly trained, caring instructors that work in the center will work with your child using Mathnasium@home. They’ll use the same Mathnasium Method™ our customers know and love, tailored to your child’s exact educational needs. Mathnasium@home even includes our fun rewards program.

Q: What do I need to use @home?
All you need is a computer that has a microphone and an internet connection. That’s it!
Q: Does it work as well as in-center learning?
Definitely. We tested @home with thousands of students, who found it to be just as effective as in-center learning. They will gain confidence, boost their grades and scores, learn critical thinking and problem-solving skills, and gain a real understanding of how math works that will help them in school and life.
Q: How is Mathnasium@home different from another online math tutoring?
Unlike other online tutoring services, Mathnasium does not use pre-recorded videos, teach a large group of children at once (classroom style), use untrained math tutors, instruct using rote memorization or mindless algorithmic practice, or offer automated drills or games.
Instead, Mathnasium@home delivers the same live, expert math instruction we pioneered in 2002. Mathnasium@home offers:
- Live, face-to-face instruction
- Focused interaction between instructor and student
- Instructors fully trained in the Mathnasium Method™
- A personalized learning plan for each student
- True math comprehension rather than rote memorization
Live, personalized instruction is simply the most effective method for teaching math in a way that children enjoy. It’s the only way we teach, regardless of where learning takes place.
Q: How much does Mathnasium @Home cost? How many sessions do you include?
Mathnasium@home provides the same great value and costs the same as standard enrollment with your learning center. Children typically attend 2-3 times per week. Only the delivery method changes.
Q: How has the initial response been to the service?
The response has been overwhelmingly positive! Families love the convenience of @home, and they’re especially grateful for this option now that their kids are out of school.
Q: Can my child return to in-center learning after the stay-at-home period is over?
Absolutely. Your Mathnasium enrollment is valid for both in-center and @home learning, and you can choose to continue with @home or transition easily to the physical center.
