What I love about Mathnasium: When a student first comes in, if they are struggling with math, we help them build their mathematical foundations. After they've been with us for a little while, they start to become more confident in their abilities and they see how interesting and fun it can be to think about math - which happens because of our unique approach to teaching and the instructional environment we foster. Many of them then start to really enjoy learning math and to love math, and witnessing that is the best part of what we do!
