Angie Malbrough
Owner and Center Director
My name is Angie Malbrough. I am the new owner of Mathnasium of South Baton Rouge. A little about me. I am the proud mother of three wonderful kids. Hannah who is twenty-two, Mary who is seventeen, and Elijah who is three. I am a 2006 graduate from Louisiana State University where I graduated with a degree in elementary education. I also received a master’s in educational leadership from Southeastern in Hammond. I am a former teacher and worked in the East Baton Rouge School System teaching gifted, magnet, and special education students.
I first started my own personal Mathnasium journey here at this center. My daughter Mary was struggling in math in elementary school and me trying to teach her was not working. I enrolled her skeptical if this would work for her. The first thing I noticed was her confidence in math improved. She was asking to go to the Mathnasium because it was fun. Her grades started improving and I was a believer and supporter. This place transformed not only her life but mine as well. I knew in 2017 Mathnasium and helping others was my true passion and calling in life. I started my own Mathnasium in the fall of 2017 in Mandeville, Louisiana.
So here I am again starting a new journey where it all began. I couldn’t be more excited to help as many students as possible build their confidence and understanding of math. My goal is to be a community and school partner, so if your school needs anything I can help with just ask.
