• How do you teach math? What method or curriculum do you use?

  Unlike a math class, Mathnasium teaches to the individual. Our expert instructors provide face-to-face instruction at the right pace for each student. 

  We use The Mathnasium Method™, a proprietary teaching approach which combines personalized learning plans with mental, verbal, visual, tactile, and written teaching techniques to build math knowledge upon what students already know and expand their mathematical thinking.  

  Using this approach, our tutors teach for understanding, helping students enhance their critical thinking and problem-solving skills so they're able to retain what they learn and gain confidence along the way. 

• Do you work with advanced students or only the ones struggling with math?
