1. What is the most common thing you see in new students coming to Mathnasium for the first time?
A: The most common thing I see when new students come in to Mathnasium is the dislike of math. They find it frustrating and difficult.
2. If there was one thing you could tell parents before they bring their student to Mathnasium what would it be?
A: We are here as more than homework help. Mathnasium is a learning center that identifies and helps with foundational gaps in your student's math education. It is very important to work on those concepts, as well as, those concepts that they are covering in school.
3. What things do the most successful students have in common?
A: Our most successful students come in regularly, twice a week or more, and are focused during their sessions. A little incentive of earning a prize from the cabinet helps those students who need a little extra motivation!
4. What are some of the ways you teach math to your students?
A: We teach our students through verbal instruction and multiple layers of practice. We also have diagrams and manipulatives such as fraction pieces and number lines to help students visualize some more difficult concepts.
5. What do you think is the coolest thing about Mathnasium?
A: The coolest thing about Mathnasium is our extras. We have the prize cabinet, but also some prizes from spinning the wheel. We also have a Game of the Month! These are math and logic games that we play during the students' sessions.
