Mathnasium is so effective because it is customized to each particular student. Each learner can go at his/her own pace and work on material that is scaled for their exact skill level. After a year of remote learning, Mathnasium is exactly what my kids need to make-up for lost ground and to gain confidence in their math skills.

Our son was behind in math and getting frustrated. He started to say he hated math. Mathnasium was able to turn that around. He genuinely enjoys going there and his teaches were impressed with how much he has grown. The owners rewards program has also taught him how to save up for items he really wants. He has more confidence towards learning new things as well. We are so happy Mathnasium is here and we highly recommend it to everyone we know.

Our daughters (now 11 and 9) have been really enjoying doing math with Mathnasium. It's great extra practice on top of what they do at school and keeps them engaged with math throughout the summer too. Andrew and Julie have been wonderful to work with, and we're especially flexible to accommodate our needs during the pandemic. All around a great experience.

Our son Colin was not being challenged in his math class. We signed him for Mathnasium and it has been great. He enjoys the lessons and is being challenged. We really appreciate the dedication of the teachers, the clear scheduling and communication and the progress that Colin has made since joining in October.

The owners at the Ballard location are so wonderful. The teaching methods they use and the reward system really works with kids and teenagers. They are patient and kind and hire tutors who are well trained. Our son has been going there since before Covid. They helped bring up to where he should be academically. When the schools went to online learning, I was nervous that he would fall behind again. Instead, his teachers report he has adjusted really well and he has continued to be at his academic level. We don't work with him ourselves because it would end in a fight and tears amongst the whole family. Most of the time he loves going, but there are times when he wants to skip it. However, every single time I've picked him up he's told me he's happy he went and/or he tells me what he learned or what he was tested on. His confidence has grown and he understands now that he has the ability to learn and understand concepts he thought were impossible. They follow all recommended guidelines to prevent Covid and we feel safe taking our son there. I recommend them to everyone.

Our daughter literally looks forward to going to Mathnasium. She enjoys the ability to pace herself - and the sense of achievement she gets when she encounters and then solves a new, challenging type of question. I highly recommend the Mathnasium of Northwest Seattle location in particular. The instructors are knowledgeable and caring. Andrew and Julie Tempest create a wonderfully supportive experience for students and parents alike.

While I don't like the approach of motivating kids with candy, I sadly have kids who are highly motivated by rewards, and one of them is motivated by candy in particular. So, the Mathnasium approach works for them both, and I've never seen anyone so excited about going to math class as these two kids (and I grew up with a math professor for a father!).

The Mathnasium staff and experience have surpassed all expectations. In this very challenging time Mr.Tempest and crew have cultivated a sense of safety and the willingness to support our child to endure. She loves math and I believe it is because the team at Mathnasium knows how to keep my daughter engaged and focused in this very distracting and stressful time.

Mathmasium has changed my daughter relationship with Math. She used to have very negative feelings and get really anxious and frustrated during Math classes in school. She has now learned that Math can be fun and is not as frustrated in class as she used to be. Her problem solving skills have improved but ultimately for us the most important goal was for her to change her negative feelings towards Math and I think Mathmasium has done just that!

Been such a great nonstop resource during Covid shelter in place. Our son doesn’t worry about skipping a beat during school closures. We are very very happy they are continually helping kids during the pandemic with structure and Math support. Such an integral part of our son’s academic world. Thanks over and over!

Andrew has been excellent! My son has been attending for a short while for some extra work on math. Mathnasium has done a thorough assessment to determine where he needs extra work and have worked with him to strengthen his skill. They have done a good job of motivating with some 'gaming' incentives and my son enjoys going every time.
Looking forward to the Mathnasium online coming soon!

Mathnasium has made a huge difference in our son's understanding of math and he loves going there. The staff is knowledgeable and patient and make learning fun. He enjoys earning stars and saving up for really cool books and toys. They communicate with us and our son's teacher on a regular basis which has been wonderful. We highly recommend them. Their prices our very reasonable.

Andrew Tempest is the best. My initial meeting was wonderful. He explained how they operate, their philosophy and expectations. Our son has been struggling in math. When my husband and I would try to work with him, we would all get frustrated and many tears were shed. Our son loves going to Mathnasium. He asks to go. They make it fun and their rewards system really motivates our son.

Our daughter gets the attention she needs at her own pace. Her school was more interested in rushing through lessons and seemed to be geared towards the children that could keep pace. But since she's started Mathnasium, we've seen per abilities increase in a summer beyond what they did in an entire school year at school.

Andrew and his team are wonderful to work with. Our son did one month of review before school started and I'm so glad we did. Mathnasium's 1/1 ratio was exactly what our son needed for review, to prevent any summer slide, and to help him feel confident in his math abilities for 6th grade. He really enjoyed his hour long sessions, was focused and learned a lot. He was eager to go (after the initial session) and happy to return.
Andrew also accommodated my requests for assessments and supplemental topics. I've already recommended Mathnasium Ballard to a few moms I know. We will be back as soon as the year gets underway.
Thank you!

We have been pleasantly surprised about how much our daughter enjoys to going mathnasium. She really enjoys what she works on there, the staff is very friendly. She loves that it feels calming and supportive there. Andrew has also been so supportive to our daughters needs. I the couple of months that we have been going to mathnasium we have already seen a big improvement in our daughters confidence with her math skills. I would highly recommend mathnasium to our friends. We are glad this place exists!

Andrew is great. Very organized, on point and welcoming. Our son is having a wonderful experience since he joined last month. He really likes the reward system. His only ask is that they include a Magic the Gathering booster pack in the rewards case (you can get them at Mox for $4). He really likes the Mastery Checks and being moved along to his own pace. He finds it challenging and fun. Thank you!

Our experience at Mathnasium has far exceeded our expectations. If I could, I would give Mathnasium a 12. Our son has taken to learning Math much more than we could have ever taught him ourselves. We're finding his ability to dig into problems is much quicker and when we drive by the Mathnasium, he actually gets excited. Granted, part of this is driven by the prizes he can win, but overall, we've seen him improve dramatically in only a month or so. Thanks so much!

Mathnasium has done more than help my son with his schoolwork— they’ve found a way to make math fun. Often times he comes home with a big smile saying he got all “mathed-up”— their term for “in the zone”. His confidence is soaring which, in turn, has helped with anxiety and depression. My son hated math and now it is one of his favorite subjects. What else can I say? Mathnasium works.

My 2 kids learned a lot there. From the instructors to the methods and gamification system, all the environment contributed to their quick understanding of math subjects. It is an excellent complement to school, and in our case the main source for our kids to learn math. Another positive for us was the ability to check the progress for each kid at anytime, which skills they are learning and which they already mastered. Highly recommend.

Fantastic program. The assessment process was efficient and accurate, the prescriptive learning plan identified just what our son needed to work on, and he has seen rapid measurable gains in his skills. And the best part is that he enjoys going to Mathnasium - great staff, fun environment. We could not be more pleased!

Hello. I'm Andrew Tempest, Owner/Center Director of Mathnasium of Northwest Seattle, your neighborhood math-only learning center. We help kids in grades 2 - 12 understand math by teaching the way that makes sense to them.
When math makes sense, kids leap way ahead – whether they started out far behind or already ahead in math. Our formula for teaching kids math, the Mathnasium Method™ has transformed the way kids learn math for over a decade across 1,000+ centers in the US and Canada:
Our specially trained math instructors will teach your child how to understand math in an individual setting – our unique approach enables us to effectively explain math concepts and lend a helping hand to every student. Our tutors foster a caring, encouraging environment that helps kids thrive and learn!
Mathnasium instructors use our unique assessment process to determine (with great accuracy) exactly what each child knows and what they need to learn. Next, we design a customized learning plan for teaching the concepts the student needs to master. It doesn’t stop there – our encouraging instructors continually check progress along the way to make sure kids truly understand and retain the concepts we’ve taught. The results are transformative – kids will see measurable changes in attitude, confidence, and school progress.
Our instructors will also set aside time to provide homework help. We help kids understand the homework assignment so they feel better prepared to complete the work at home – underscoring their understanding of concepts and transforming homework frustration into a welcome challenge.
