Barry & Kathryn Fausnaugh

Owners & Center Directors

Barry and Kathryn Fausnaugh are experienced Mathnasium Center Owners and Directors, and dedicated to the success of the students at Mathnasium of Laurel! They have owned and operated successful Mathnasium Centers since 2012. Barry holds a B.S. degree from UMUC in information systems management, and Kathryn holds a B.S. degree from Virginia Tech in accounting and earned her CPA. Both Barry and Kathryn enjoyed distinguished careers in management and IT consulting, prior to transitioning to pursuing opportunities with Mathnasium. As dedicated parents, Barry and Kathryn know first-hand the struggles many children (and parents) face with math. Barry and Kathryn believe that mastering essential math skills is crucial to success in today's world and the earlier kids are able to do so, the better off they will be in the long run. Whether a child will be a doctor, teacher, engineer or construction worker, he or she needs a minimum level of math skills. It is possible for kids to learn not only to not hate math, but to love, appreciate, and use it effectively as a tool throughout their entire lives.

Our Mathnasium Mission

Teach children math so they understand it, master it, and love it. Math can change their lives, and they can change the world.

What I love about Mathnasium is the ability to teach problem-solving skills and make math make sense, while also making a student smile.
