Q: What did you notice about your center/re the first time you came in?
George: I noticed how hard the kids were working. The kids were focused but there was also a lot of conversation, creating a good kind of controlled chaos where students could work hard, receive instruction, and socialize with peers.
Connor: The music! I have always loved the lo-fi Mathnasium plays. It helps create a studious environment but also communicates that the Mathnasium centers aren't school, but rather a safe, relaxing, chill space to learn math.
Q: What is your favorite memory at your center/re?
Jaelyn: My favorite memory at Mathnasium was Pi Day! The whole event was so much fun! We got to play games, eat Pi, learn math, and do silly challenges. Pi Day is the best because students get to have fun, learn about something new, and share it with their friends.
Q: What’s your favorite part about your center/re?
Jerry Post: My favorite part about our centers are the instructors and administrators that I'm so fortunate to call our Mathnasium of Spokane team! Without them, we'd be just another tutoring center. But every day, I see them go above and beyond to make a new student feel welcome, or explain a math concept in a way that finally resonates, or help a student truly believe that they can succeed in school. Our staff is absolutely fantastic, and they're a blessing to both me and our hundreds of students!
Q: What time of year is the most fun at your center/re?
Connor: Fall into December is my favorite time of year at Mathnasium. The festive feeling from Thanksgiving and the holiday season really carries into the center and creates a fun environment!
