Schedule Your Mathnasium of New Orleans @home Session
Mathnasium of New Orleans' online math tutoring sessions must be scheduled in advance. Your session should be scheduled at least five hours prior to desired start time (or sooner).

Homework Assistance Needed for Your Session?
If you’re student needs homework assistance, please email a picture or PDF copy of the assignment one hour prior to their session so the instructor can have it loaded into the program. The email address is: [email protected]
Tips for a Successful Mathnasium @home Experience
The following tips and suggestions are provided to maximize the benefits of your student’s face-to-face online instruction via our Mathnasium @home option.
Internet Connection
- Ensure your computer has a solid internet connection. If your computer can be plugged directly into your home’s modem, that will provide the fastest experience. However, a room with a solid wi-fi connection generally will be sufficient. Trying to connect from a coffee shop or other public wi-fi will negatively impact the experience.
Your Student’s Set Up
- Student’s should use headphones with a noise canceling microphone. This will limit “echoing” and ensure the instructor can properly hear the student and vice-versa. The student should be in a quiet area free from background distractions and noise.
- Currently, Mathnasium @home works best using Google's Chrome web browser. If you are using another browser we have found that students will experience audio or video issues.
Homework Help
- If you’re student needs homework assistance, please ensure they have emailed a picture or PDF copy of it at least one-hour prior to their session so the instructor can have it loaded into the program. The email address is: [email protected]
Session Experience
- @home sessions must be scheduled in advance. Sessions are based on a “first come, first served” availability.
- If a student is late logging in, their session end time cannot be changed or extended.
- Please do not provide additional instruction or give students answers. This may cause confusion for a student and impact their understanding of the material.
- The instructor working with your student will be working with others. To ensure they provide the highest level of instruction for all Mathletes, please contact the center directly with any questions or other information that may need to be communicated. The instructor will not be able to relay information or engage in conversations.
