Mathnasium of Lakewood WA's personalized algebra tutoring programs are designed to support students at every stage of their math journey.
Following personalized learning plans, we guide students from concrete to abstract thinking, mastering integers, fractions, order of operations, and variables while developing the algebraic reasoning foundations critical for Algebra 1.
Students receive caring support through multi-step equations, linear functions, graphing, and word problems, building both skills and confidence in this pivotal course that shapes their entire math trajectory.
We prepare students for advanced coursework by tackling fast-paced topics, factoring polynomials, quadratics, exponentials, and logarithms, strengthening problem-solving abilities needed for Precalculus and college-level math.
At Mathnasium of Lakewood WA, our specially trained math tutors help students of all skill levels learn and master algebra, from foundational concepts to advanced algebraic equations.
We work with students enrolled in Prealgebra, Algebra 1, and Algebra 2, providing personalized, face-to-face instruction in a caring and fun group environment. Our tutors meet each student where they are, helping them fill in knowledge gaps, (re)build foundational skills, and build the confidence to tackle new challenges.
We use the Mathnasium Method™, our proprietary teaching approach that combines diagnostic assessments, personalized learning plans, and proven interactive techniques to teach algebra in a way that makes sense.
Our tutors start with what each student already knows and build upon that foundation, introducing algebraic concepts gradually to promote deep understanding and long-term retention. By focusing on clarity, logic, and step-by-step learning, we help students truly understand and even enjoy how algebra works.
Students begin their Mathnasium journey with a diagnostic assessment that helps us pinpoint their current skill level, learning style, and academic goals. Using these insights, we create a personalized learning plan that addresses each student’s specific needs, whether they’re looking to catch up, keep up, or get ahead.
Our tutors follow each plan closely and adapt instruction in real time, ensuring steady progress and lasting confidence. Students advance at a pace that allows them to truly understand the concepts they’re working with and develop a deeper appreciation for algebra.

Specially Trained and Caring Team
Ariel
Center Director
Hi! I'm Ariel, and I am originally from Savannah, GA! Even though I have a BA in History and an MFA in Writing Popular Fiction, I have always loved math, especially Algebra! I want to help children find a love of math by teaching it in a way that makes sense to them. When not tutoring, you can find me knitting, crocheting, quilting, reading, playing video games, or watching TV with my husband and dogs.
Narinee
Assistant Center Director
From Olympia, Narinee graduated from the University of Washington with a major in Information Technology and minor in Mathematics. Prior to completing post-secondary education, she spent roughly 8 years tutoring mathematics, within grade schools and community colleges. When she is not working, Narinee enjoys going on hikes, doing cardio, and playing either co-op or turn-based video games. She also likes to do deep dives involving STEM topics, learn languages, and lounge with her cats.
Janet
Instructor
I went to UCLA and earned a BA in Economics. I have a MS in Education: Instructional Technology. I taught high school Math for many years. I enjoy traveling, gardening, and making crafts. I have a cat and a dog and three cows.
Caitlyn
Instructor
HI! My name is Caitlyn. I am a biomedical sciences major at University of Washington Tacoma. Some of my hobbies are reading, poetry, watching shows, and gaming!
Christina
Instructor
Christina began tutoring in college when she started helping local high school students with algebra and physics. Since then, she has worked with students from preschool though college level in reading, writing, math, and study skills, but tutoring math is her favorite. She believes that anyone can learn anything if given the right tools and motivations.
When Christina is not working, I like to read, obsess over my favorite TV shows, make home improvements, and she is trying to teach myself how to cook and play the bagpipes (not simultaneously).
