We are thrilled that the center is back open and back open safely! Our fifth grader has steadily been improving in his math skills and comprehension since he started his sessions at Mathnasium a little over one year ago. And not only that, his confidence in his skills has grown significantly. He is proud of his progress and so are we, his parents.

Our 5th grader has been getting mathnasium support for a little over a month and so far it has been a very positive experience. They are prompt with feedback and we can see that the support from mathnasium is helping our 5th grader with math strategies and giving him more confidence in math.

I can not shout the praises of the teachers from the Fremont Mathnasium loud enough. The teachers are incredible. My children, even a reluctant one, have greatly benefited from their time. Not only is the curriculum designed to fill all holes and gaps the students have, the teachers are so calm and patient when working with the students. It is a thing of beauty when you witness a child working through a problem, a teacher kindly supporting them and then the lightbulb clicking. During this time of Covid education, Mathnasium has been a highlight.

The transition to online was challenging for our 10 year old. But the staff has been great in trying their best to keep him enthused and engaged. When they saw that he was not performing as well as he had in the center, they presented the opportunity for him to return to in center sessions as soon as the opportunity opened. So he is now back to in center sessions and already improving and doing well! I appreciate the staff consistently communicating with me always and being so committed to my son’s success. They are so creative and so in touch and so kind! And not to mention, very smart and they know their math! Thank you!

I love getting the updates on my kids’ progress. But what I appreciate most is the personal touch shown by the staff. More than once, I’ve received an email or phone call from Faith or Jordan asking if everything was alright when one of my boys had an “off” day or were upset by something. In a place with as many kids cycling in and out, it makes me feel like the staff really care and see them as the unique individuals they are.

Faith is an amazing center manager, always responsive and helpful. the tutors are great!!!

Mathnasium has helped our student get up to speed with their current grade level math, and has saved my husband and I from the stress of trying to teach the basic core skills that public education failed to provide for our child. Our student was almost 2 years behind their academic level (5th grade) when we started last year, and is now almost caught up (one year later). Thanks to all the great mathnasium staff!

Our son was falling behind in math and becoming discouraged about math. A family friend recommended Mathnasium and it has been a game changer for him and for our family! First, less tears when we are doing math homework. And our son has more confidence in his math skills as he is able to successfully complete tasks and assignments. He is not only learning how to compute the correct answer but he is learning how and why the answer is correct. He is learning concepts. Thank you Mathnasium! We appreciate your tutors and their commitment.

We're believers! It works. After only one month my daughter has much more confidence in her math skills, and she actually looks forward to her sessions (!)

We have had a great experience with Mathnasium. We were one of the first families to sign up at the NE location and from day 1 I felt like staff treated me and my daughter with kindness and efficient attention to any concerns that popped up. I was impressed with the professional way that assessment information and feedback was offered and I felt that the head staff had a personal interest in my daughter's experience at Mathnasium and with her progression through the material. I also thought that the transition to remote sessions was done well. During the transition phase before sessions went fully online, it felt like the center took safety/health precautions regarding COVID very seriously. There is a sense of true commitment and caring for the students who enroll there. I would highly recommend.

My son loves going to Mathnasium. The instructors are very patient, kind and knowledgeable. They communicate with us constantly about our son's progress and voice any concerns they may have. They worked with throughout the Covid-19 situation and we couldn't be more grateful!

My kids love mathnasium and mathnasium have been a consistent positive experience throughout the pandemic as well. It is the space my kids are learning the most right now. The instructors care deeply about ensuring the kids are learning and enjoying the process. Their communication with parents is timely and thoughtful.

After multiple tutors and extra help at school through 6th grade, my daughter was still behind in math and was very slow at computing. Mathnasium has really turned this around! My daughter has much more confidence in her computing skills and I have more confidence that she will get through High School successfully. She won't get stuck trying to do basic computations but instead can focus on the problem to solve. Thank you, Mathnasium!

My son Michael’s math skills and comprehension have steadily improved since he started working with Mathnasium tutors. And what is very important to me is that his confidence in his math problem solving capabilities has increased. That makes me so happy to see and makes him happy too!

All the tutors are VERY nice and helpful. Mathnasium was also able to pivot very quickly to an online platform during COVID, which has been an excellent component to the distance learning. Thank you!

The instructors do an excellent job of explaining the concepts a variety of different ways so that it clicks and makes sense. They communicate with me on a regular basis regarding my child’s progress which I appreciate. I can’t say enough good things about Mathnasium. It has helped our family tremendously!

As difficult as distance learning is (and also having to do it at Mathnasium, not just public school), the people at Mathnasium have been great about working with my child's needs and adjusting to her method of learning. I definitely have seen improvement in the one year that she has been involved and would recommend this to any other parents of children who need some extra help with math. My child gets 1 on 1 attention that is not possible with today's distance learning curriculum.

great tutors and the company was quick to action during this time.

I appreciate the enthusiasm of the instructors at Mathnasium. They seem to enjoy working with my kids and take the time to get to know them. I've been impressed with the pivot to online services in response to Covid-19 and look forward to the staff continuing to find ways to engage and advance kids in their learning.

The teachers have been great at keeping our student on track. We tried an online option that we struggled with getting the direct help we needed when our student had questions. It's great to have the direct, personal help. For our situation, it was a better fit.

Our son Michael is actually enjoying attending Mathnasium and enjoying math more! His confidence in his personal math skills is growing too! The staff are all great and truly enthusiastic about math! The staff are also very approachable and genuinely interested in Michael’s math skills development and comprehension. I really do appreciate being able to share with them how he is actually performing in school as well so that those skills/needs can be addressed.

We have been very happy with our time at Math. Alison really enjoys her time there. She is proud of her work and enjoys the 1-1 time with the teachers. She seems to show more self-confidence around her math work than she does at school where she feels pressured by the timed math work. I see many more mistakes on her work from school. I work with her at home so I know that her knowledge base isn't reflected in her school work. Thanks to everyone at Mathnasium. We will happily continue our time there!

My son loves going to mathnasium. The staff are great. They are patient, fun and knowledgable. My son's math confidence has improved, along with his math skills. I get regular updates on his progress via email, and he has made improvements consistently since we began going to mathnasium.

Jamie Rice
We have had an extremely positive experience and have already recommended Mathnasium to a couple of people, one of whom has already signed up.
Our child is making progress in Math and becoming more confident. The funny thing is that she complains about the time commitment of coming 3X a week (we generally make it all 3 times), but once she's there, she always has a positive experience and is happy when we pick her up!
She looks up to all the tutors there and really appreciates how they are patient and work with her to find strategies that work for her to have a deeper understanding of concepts.

Our 4th grade daughter has been going now for over 6 months. She has shown great improvement. Her teacher is absolutely noticing a huge difference. The staff is kind, funny, encouraging and easy to be around. Although she isn’t up to grade level yet we already see that she can do her math homework independently and is showing so much more confidence. It is worth the time and money.

My 7yo is super stoked about math, and talks about it regularly. She's engaged and interested and more confident than she ever could have been without Mathnasium.
The teachers are encouraging and challenging her. It's a process, and the fact that she's still interested - even though it's hard sometimes - speaks volumes for the approach and the teachers at Mathnasium.

My kid loves Mathnasium and actually asks for time to go. I don't have to pester her about it. She's also getting really excited about math, and is having a lot of fun. The information we get back on her periodic assessments is very helpful to see how she's progressing, and we are seeing results (in school as well).

Mathnasium has an extremely supportive staff. They let it be known right away that they are on your child’s “team” and they continually develop a growth mindset so that the students know that they can overcome obstacles. I love the fact that Mathnasium is a safe space for kids to take risks and fail! The instructors are now considered friends by my child. Thank you!

My daughter has been with Mathnasium for just over a month but is already exhibiting greater confidence in math and a desire to learn more. It has been very well worth joining! Math has never been "fun" for her and is something that she didn't even consider very important, but now her attitude is already perceptibly changing towards it.

Mathnasium offers a convenient and practical way to get the support we need to get my child up to speed in math - frequent, affordable visits with learning modules selected based on what the child needs to improve. They provide regular progress feedback to me and motivational incentives to the learner.

Our 12 year old has been going 2-3 days a week since the end of August. In just a month her confidence is increasing by the day. Can't wait to see where she is at by winter break. The tutors are all kind and patient and I love the energy in the space. It is clean, clutter free and peaceful.

I am so happy we signed our daughter up with Mathnasium. She has always struggled with math and took a lot longer than a traditional classroom allows to understand concepts. I feel secure she is getting the support she needs at Mathnasium to boost her understanding & confidence in her school math class.

My son struggled and I felt that we were running out of options... I was searching google for anything MATH and stumbled on the Mathnasium youtube video. As I begin to watch tears swelled up and I felt connected; I then searched for a center near me and the process began. Not only is my son attending sessions he is ENJOYING his new learnings.
I have recommended the program to several other parents!!
Thank You MATHNASIUM Team

The one on onehelp my son has received at the Fremont mathnasium has not only improved his comprehension in algebra specifically but has in fact shown to improve his confidence and focus in his other classes as well.

I was so shocked and EXCITED to find Mathnasium in my city/state... My son struggles with math and had became very distraught. After watching the video I was intrigued to have him visit and try out the process.. TODAY, my son is excited to go to his sessions and is feeling more and more open to learning MATH!! The staff at NE Portland is AWESOME and makes the kids feel very successful everyday!! THANK YOU

Our daughter loves being there. She is in 6th grade and math has always been a struggle. She is more confident now and seems like she is utilizing strategies instead of just shutting down or guessing when she is faced with a problem (math or otherwise!!!!)

My daughter has been using Mathnasium for 2 months. We have had a good experience. Our daughter is usually fine to go because the staff is nice & welcoming and they have small prizes for after she finished up her work. We are starting with some fundamentals right now but I’m sure in the future we will see more confidence & understanding in her current school work.
We appreciate the welcoming staff.
