At Mathnasium of Northborough, we know how important learning math is in elementary school. It serves as the foundation for all your child’s future math studies. To make it understandable, we take a step-by-step and kid-friendly approach to teaching it to your child.
We cover everything your elementary student needs to gain skills and confidence in math. We build on computation and problem solving using whole numbers, and then move on to fractions, decimals, percent, and negative numbers. We encourage your child every step of the way, building their confidence in math!
Our Approach
Elementary school students work with our instructors in a unique combination of mental, verbal, visual, tactile, and written exercises. Beyond teaching students important math concepts and skills, our math instruction program helps students build number sense by explaining how numbers work. As it progresses, children get more and more comfortable with numbers. We call this "numerical fluency" - the ability for elementary school kids to effortlessly recall arithmetic facts. This is a valuable asset when they face new challenges in math.
Customized Learning Plan
We create a custom program designed specifically for your student. In this way, they are working on exactly what they need to help address educational gaps they may have. This same process makes it easier to jump ahead when students are ready for advanced math challenges. Students are not frustrated with a topic that is too hard, or bored with something that is too easy.
Additionally, we help kids understand their school homework, and help them prepare for school tests.
