My daughter had such a Math-phobia before Mathnasium. I understood early on with Chayna, that learning is not supposed to be frustrating, and clearly we were frustrated with one another about Math. My expectations were greater than my child's knowledge & I couldn't understand. I saw a sign for Mathnasium, decided to give it a try, and almost a year later, I hear Chayna say, "Mom, I love fractions and division!" What?! I NEVER expected to hear those words from her. The tutors at Mathnasium are phenomenal! They take their time with the kids, they meet them where they are, and they have a fun time, all while teaching. Even during Covid, the virtual sessions are continuous and I am grateful. Shout out to Jacob, you're the best! Mathnasium, you rock!

Our son really enjoys his Mathnasium lessons and is building confidence in his math skills. His tutor John is patient and encouraging, which is helping to reduce the anxiety our son feels when doing math. The staff regularly check in with us to see how everything is going. We are pleased so far with the results!

We were looking to provide our daughter with additional support for her math studies. As a Junior in High School it was difficult to find time to keep up with all of her studies and homework, with Math being the one subject she seemed to struggle most with. We saw the new Mathnasium opening up in Oak Park and thought we would give it a try. From the first session, my daughter commented on how much she enjoyed both the environment and her tudor. We never have to ask her to go, she literally tells us that she wants to go 2 to 3 times a week for the 1-hour session. She says that it allows her to complete her Math homework assignments, gets extra help on material she is struggling with, and also helps her better prepare for quizzes and tests. With the help of Mathnasium, she has maintained an A average during her entire Junior and Senior year of high school. Thank you Mathnasium for your program and especially for the genuinely terrific people you have working for you.

This an exceptional program for either students who are who are advanced in mathematics be on their age group or for those who need a little extra help and getting a strong foundation for basic mathematics. The staff is professional, friendly and dedicated to both the students and their parents. I absolutely love Mathnasium. Thank you!

It was expensive but accomplished exactly what i wanted it to. my child’s grade improved, but more importantly, he feels comfortable with math now, he has a much better understanding of concepts, and he likes math better. I will absolutely use again i. the future for my younger children or if my child needs help again. Thank you so much.

So far everyone has been very kind. At first, Christian was not happy about attending Mathnasium. However, his father and I encouraged him to give it a try. We explained that it would build up his self confidence in mathematics and there are plenty of room to grow if he is persistent and determined to make a go of it. He really needs to know that smart is cool, and not have anyone bully or make him feel that it’s not a good thing or make him feel as though he has done something wrong. Dad and I are praying for positive results. We look forward to working with the folks at Mathnasium to help Christian succeed.

There was a thoughtful conversation on our objectives and how Mathnasium would help us reach those goals with no pressure to enroll. The initial assessment was only 45 minutes and taught all of us exactly where the curriculum should pick up. The instruction is engaging and effective, the communication on progress very useful and going to Mathnasium is a bright spot on the weekly schedule.

Mathnasium came through for us when we needed a very high-level (Calculus) tutor. We were able to get in for a free trial session while other facilities were still scrambling to see if they could find anyone to assist at that level. They were able to help my daughter through the material in a manner that was straight-forward and made it easy to understand. Just what we needed!

I called several tutoring centers trying to find someone to help my daughter with Calculus. They didn't have anyone to tutor at that level, they weren't available during the times we were available, or we would have to travel out of our way to get to them. On the other hand, Mathnasium invited us in for a free trial on the same day that I contacted them. Brian was fantastic! My daughter actually understood the information and made it through the materials much faster than expected. I don't know what we would have done without Mathnasium.

We LOVE [LAST NAME REMOVED]! They do great with both our son who hates math and is behind as well as our daughter who loves it and is advanced. They really cater to the individual needs of all students and both of my kids are always happy and excited to go. They really know how to help motivate kids and make math fun, something I didn't know was even possible! Everyone is super friendly and we really appreciate the flexible scheduling. I highly recommend [LAST NAME REMOVED] and am so glad we found it!

Mathnasium has been such a wonderful thing for our family! Our son who has always hated math now does his homework without any arguments and is so proud to bring home his tests and quizzes that went from Ds and Fs to As and Bs! Our daughter, who has always been advanced loves going and learning new things as they provide the right level of challenge for her that the schools cannot. We are so happy to have found Mathnasium and love the unlimited attendance, friendly staff, and convenient location. I highly recommend this place!

The staff are so great about providing feedback.Rob provides detailed observations about my daughter including how she is doing with the addition of afternoon medication for her ADHD. Rob is an example of how the staff here are interested in each child as an entire person, not just as a budding mathematician. The staff seem to genuinely enjoy working with kids and making the whole experience of learning fun for them. Thanks for everything to Rob and the entire staff at Mathnasium!

My 10 year old daughter was falling behind in math. When she said to me “I’m bad at math,” I immediately called Mathnasium. She now goes willingly (which you can’t always say about kids’ enthusiasm for math) and enjoys her time there. Best of all, she’s been keeping up and understanding new math concepts. They’ve been flexible with her tutoring, as she has gaps in different areas, not just one. Which has helped her be more confirdent. She no longer believes that she is “bad at math.”

[LAST NAME REMOVED] is the best thing we have ever done for our kids! Getting them to do their math homework used to be a huge issue in our house and the cause for a lot of stress. My younger one has terrible test anxiety and even when I know she knew the material would come home crying with bad grades. Now she goes into tests prepared and confident and has been coming home so proud with As! My older son has always been really good at math and needed to be challenged, so when we found out the assessment fee was a family fee and there was a sibling discount we took advantage and got him enrolled too. What I love about [LAST NAME REMOVED] is how effective it is for both of my kids even though they have very different needs. I would recommend to any parents looking for math help or enrichment. The staff is great and the kids love going!

Our daughter has been going to Mathnasium for the past 2 summers and I have seen a growth in her that summer school never achieved. She's more confident in her math skills and not afraid to ask questions when she doesn't understand the problem, her teacher even commented on her improvement. I thank Mathnasium for there one on one attention they provide to every child, keep up the good work Mathnasium.

My child loved going. She went 4-5 times a week which meant she was doing 4-5 hours of math per week...in the summer. She liked the staff, the other kids and was highly motivated by the prizes. The scheduling system is very easy and they are very flexible about last minute changes. We had only signed up for a month but we are planning on continuing.
We did this as enrichment and I was satisfied with the material and her progress.
