We support students in Prealgebra, Algebra 1, and Algebra 2, as well as concepts like expressions, equations, functions, graphing, polynomials, and exponential relationships.

Our tutors combine proven interactive techniques with personalized learning plans tailored to each student’s needs and learning style, making algebra clear, meaningful, and easier to apply both in class and in real-world situations.
Each student’s Mathnasium journey begins with a diagnostic assessment that helps us identify their current skills, learning gaps, and goals.

Spencer began his Mathnasium career in 2018 as a part time instructor with Mathnasium of Oviedo, FL while attending the University of Central Florida.

Director of Operations
Youngkun's journey in education began with his pursuit of a bachelor’s degree in Pure Mathematics at Revelle College, University of California San Diego (UCSD). However, his passion soon shifted towards math education, prompting him to change his major to focus on secondary education.

His dedication and leadership abilities quickly became evident, and by late 2017, he had transitioned to the role of Center Director. His continued success led to his promotion to Director of Operations in early 2023, where he now oversees multiple Mathnasium centers, including those in San Diego, Phoenix, Denver, Dallas, and Cincinnati.
Youngkun firmly believes that every student deserves to approach math with confidence. He is a staunch advocate of the Mathnasium method, which emphasizes a deep understanding of mathematical concepts and aims to eliminate the fear of math that often impedes student progress.
Committed to fostering the personal and professional growth of both instructors and students within his region, Youngkun strives to create an environment where learning math is a positive and empowering experience.
