Frequently Asked Questions

Contact your local Mathnasium Learning Center with any questions you may have about our IAR math tutors. Here are some of the more common ones we get:

  • What is IAR?

    Illinois Assessment of Readiness (IAR) is an annual statewide standardized test designed to evaluate students' proficiency in key academic subjects.

    The IAR assesses students in:

    • English language arts (ELA) for grades 3-8
    • Mathematics for grades 3-8
  • When do students take the IAR math test?

    Students typically take the IAR math test in the spring, usually between March and May.

  • How do IAR scores affect students in Illinois?

    IAR test scores serve to evaluate the students’ mastery of core subjects. In Illinois, IAR scores, including math scores, can affect the students’:

    • School Grades and Transfers: Scores impact school report card grades and can influence students' ability to transfer schools.
    • Promotion and Support: They determine if students meet grade-level standards, affecting promotion to the next grade and identifying the students who may need more support.
    • Individual Progress: Detailed reports provide parents and educators with insights into each student's academic strengths and areas needing improvement.
  • Does Mathnasium tutor students for IAR English language arts (ELA) sessions?

    No, Mathnasium is a math-only learning center that prepares students in Illinois for a variety of K-12 math classes and tests, including the IAR.

  • How does Mathnasium prepare students for IAR math?

    Mathnasium's tutors prepare students for IAR by helping them learn and master the concepts they will face on the exam.

    Our specially trained tutors use personalized learning plans combined with proven teaching techniques to help students develop a deep understanding of math and achieve their specific academic goals. We focus on addressing each student's knowledge gaps and add new concepts in sequence to expand their mathematical thinking, enhance problem-solving skills, and build the confidence they need to excel on IAR and on their math journey.

    As many as 90% of students have reported improved academic performance after enrolling at Mathnasium.

  • What teaching method does Mathnasium use to help students prepare for the IAR?

    Mathnasium’s IAR math tutors use the Mathnasium Method™, our proprietary teaching approach designed to help students truly understand and enjoy math. The Mathnasium Method™ promotes math mastery by:

    • Using Personalized Learning Plans: Using assessment-based insights, we create personalized learning plans that will put each student on the best path to math mastery.
    • Building on Existing Knowledge: Guided by the personalized learning plan, our tutors start with what the student already knows to help them bridge their knowledge gaps and develop solid foundations for math mastery. Adding new concepts in sequence, we work with students to increase their knowledge level by level while enhancing their critical thinking and problem-solving skills.
    • Teaching for Understanding: We teach math in a way that makes sense to the student, employing a range of mental, visual, verbal, tactile, and written techniques to help them master any math concept.
  • Is there any difference between Mathnasium’s online and in-center IAR math tutoring?

    No, there isn’t. Students who choose to attend Mathnasium online will receive the same high-quality, live, face-to-face instruction and work with the same expert tutors they would meet at their local learning center.

  • What kind of assessment is necessary to enroll at Mathnasium?

    To enroll at Mathnasium, students take part in a diagnostic assessment which allows us to identify their math knowledge gaps and strengths.

    We use the assessment-based insights to create a personalized learning plan that will put your student on the best path towards achieving their academic goals.

  • How often should my student attend math sessions to prepare for the IAR?

    Your local learning center will determine the ideal frequency of sessions based on your student’s skill level and specific goals. We typically recommend 2-3 sessions of 60 minutes per week.

  • How can I enroll my student for math tutoring at Mathnasium?

    Getting started with the IAR math tutoring at Mathnasium is as easy as one-two-three:

    1. Find a location. Contact your nearest learning center, even if your student will be learning online.
    2. Schedule an assessment. Our diagnostic skills assessment helps us create a customized learning plan for your student.
    3. Book your sessions. Your local Center Director can guide you and your student in setting up a tutoring schedule.
