Hannah loves going to Mathnesium! For someone who really didn’t like math she sure likes it now!
We only signed up for one month last summer and Hannah really didn’t want to go, however when the month was up she actually pleaded to continue going!
Thank you Kelly and staff for teaching my child that math CAN be enjoyable!

My son has had a great experience at Mathnasium so far. I did not think him capable of 1. wanting to go, 2. being able to sit and focus and, 3. learning so much so fast. He's a very active kid but in that environment, he is consistently inspired in a positive way. I really like the flexibility of dropping in during open hours, it makes it realistic for our schedules which seem constantly in motion (much like our children).Thank you!

We are monitoring the progress of the 4th grade student we have entered at Mathanasium. He has made progress but we will not know definitely until the end of the semester.
The staff are friendly but it can be difficult for them to monitor all of the students because it gets very busy in the after school hours.

Mathnasium is a very well organized, well run operation and my daughter has had nothing but a positive experience there! Kelly and all the tutors are amazing! They are kind, patient and smart, and they have helped my daughter to elevate her math skills in a very short period of time. We would definitely recommend Mathnasium to anyone who wants (or needs) a little extra push in math!

All around great experience. Prior to Mathnasium, we have always used private tutors, so I wasn't sure what to expect. Mathnasium has exceeded my expectations!
It is run extremely well and everyone is very pleasant and professional to deal with. They always greet the parents and children by name. The tutors take the time to ensure my daughter is comfortable and learning math at her own pace. Kelly is very respectable at placing her with tutors that she is the most comfortable with and learns the best with.
Best of all she received an A in Math this year, her confidence has improved and she enjoys coming to Mathnasium! Kelly is AMAZING.

The tutor was a good listener. She was highly knowledgeable. She had a great attitude wanting to make sure my daughter mastered the material
by having her solve it twice with my daughter explaining the steps. The student felt the tutorial was helpful and she learned strategies to successfully solve these types of equations in the future. Also this extra credit assignment was much different than the usual elementary Math and our tutor helped us see the bigger picture...saying these type of problems are highly challenging and truly beyond even 6th grade Math Honors. My daughter enjoyed learning and hopes to learn more at Mathnasium as the school year progresses!

I really liked the "summer special" - 20 visits over the summer - for my son, who is now in 7th grade. Mathnasium offered a challenging academic program for the summer, yet it wasn't too high pressure, so he could enjoy summer. It was just enough education to keep the brain working during summer break. The math tutors were all very nurturing, and effectively explained Math concepts in a way that was simple and thorough. My son is now back in school, and is doing very well in Math.

Colin has felt very supported and successful at Mathnasium. It has been more challenging getting there with the school year just starting and schedules still in flux, but once things settle down, Colin will be back at Mathnasium routinely.
On another note, I will be sending information regarding my older son's High School fundraiser. He is a baseball player at Santa Monica High School and the Samohi Viking Fund Casino Night is coming up on Sept. 24. Might you consider donating a tutoring gift certificate or certificate to try Mathnasium to the silent auction fundraiser? I'll send additional information regarding the event in a seperate email. Thanks!

My experience with my child was good, although he did not attend for a long time. But I have to suggest you to change the rewards on candy and sugary treats, for healthier rewards in tune with current knowledge and practice in schools, and therefore, supporting family's efforts to keep our children healthy.
Thanks!

Diego's teacher specifically said she noticed a huge increase in both his ability and confidence in solving math probelms since he started Mathnasium. AND she said she thinks the confidence is crossing over to his other school work as well. Izabel has greter confidence and has seen her math grade improve- she's prepared for her assessments! Thank you!

Hello. I'm Kelly Kim, Center Director of Mathnasium of Santa Monica, your neighborhood math-only learning center. We help kids in grades K-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 800+ 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.
