Frequently Asked Questions

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

  • What is RICAS?

    The Rhode Island Comprehensive Assessment System (RICAS) is a statewide test that assesses student proficiency in key academic subjects, measuring how well they meet Rhode Island's academic standards and tracking their progress over time.

    The RICAS evaluates students in:

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

    Students typically take the RICAS math test during the spring testing window, with specific dates set each year by the Rhode Island Department of Education.

  • How do RICAS scores affect students in Rhode Island?

    RICAS test scores serve to reflect the students’ mastery of core subjects. In Rhode Island, RICAS 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: Scores also help 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 score reports provide parents and educators with insights into each student's academic strengths and areas that need improvement.
  • Does Mathnasium tutor students for RICAS English language arts (ELA) sessions?

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

  • How does Mathnasium prepare students for RICAS math?

    Mathnasium’s specially trained tutors use personalized learning plans and proven teaching techniques to help students truly understand and master the math they will encounter on the RICAS exam.

    We focus on closing students’ knowledge gaps, introducing new concepts in sequence, and helping them master even the most complex concepts by breaking them into manageable steps. Working with our tutors, students also build the critical thinking and problem-solving skills they need to excel on any test.

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

  • What curriculum does Mathnasium follow to prepare students for the RICAS exam?

    Mathnasium doesn’t follow standardized curricula. Instead, our RICAS math tutors use learning plans customized to each student’s unique needs, including their current skill set, knowledge gaps, and academic goals.

  • What teaching method do you use?

    Mathnasium’s specially trained 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 Customized 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 RICAS 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 RICAS?

    Your local Mathnasium 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 RICAS 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.
