Our instructors use the Mathnasium Method™, our proprietary teaching approach that combines personalised learning plans with mental, verbal, visual, tactile, and written techniques to build maths knowledge level by level.
This method ensures that each student receives tailored instruction that meets their unique needs and learning styles. By focusing on understanding fundamental concepts and developing critical thinking skills, our approach helps students build a strong mathematical foundation.
Our dedicated and specially trained maths tutors offer personalised face-to-face instruction in a supportive and engaging environment. We work with students of all skill levels, both in-centre and online, to help them achieve maths mastery.

Tara Mackintosh
Centre Director
Hello, my name is Tara and I am the Centre Director for Mathnasium in Edinburgh.
I'm looking forward to making positive changes to the lives of children in the local area as they embark on their education journey.
I have worked in numerous countries that have had children at the heart of all my roles. I spent a number of years living in America helping to change the lives of many through the power of sport after spending 4 years at university studying Sport & Recreation Management.
Away from work you'll find me shouting for my favourite football team, watching Scotland trying to finally win a 6 nations as well as sampling the best coffee Edinburgh has to offer!
Emily Mounfield - Kemp
Lead Instructor
Hello, I'm Emily!
I'm a maths graduate from the University of Edinburgh and I began tutoring maths in 2014.
I have a particular interest in mathematical education because we gain so much more from learning maths than just numerical competency and mental maths skills.
The ability to learn, apply and adapt mathematical concepts helps develop imperative life skills such as logical thinking, informational analysis and deductive reasoning.
I aim to teach in a way that helps foster these skills within a fun and supportive environment.
Whilst I am not teaching maths I like to swim, go foraging in the woods and hang out with my cats Chai and Earl.
Shugo Kitahara
Instructor
Hey, I'm Shugo!
I'm a recent Mechanical Engineering graduate from Edinburgh University.
As part of the Mathnasium team, I really want to share my passion for maths and more broadly for education. I want to foster not only the logical thinking , problem solving and analytical skills that maths can develop but also curiosity about the world. I try to enable our students to see maths as a fun set of puzzles rather than another chore. I want students to look forward to maths classes as a safe space where they can ask questions, sharpen their curiosity and be their best selves.
Outside of work, I enjoy solving Sudoku, playing puzzle video games and music - I've been playing viola and violin since I was a child and I've recently also decided to pick up the bass guitar.
Max Meikle
Instructor
Hi, I’m Max!!!
I’m a first year studying PPE at the University or Edinburgh and have tutored maths throughout my teenage years.
I have a real passion for maths and am always excited to share this with anyone that walks in the door. I love to be there for the moment when it all clicks for a pupil and they truly understand the key concept. My aim is to teach in a way that creates a fun, supportive and engaging environment to best develop mathematical skills.
Outside of work, I love to play rugby, watch Chelsea games and travel to new and exciting places.
Whether they would like to attend sessions in-centre or online, students can take 3 easy steps to enrol at Mathnasium.
All students begin their Mathnasium journey with a diagnostic assessment that pinpoints what they already know and what they still need to learn.
FAQ
Our caring, specially trained tutors work with primary and secondary school students of all skill levels looking to learn and master any maths up to Higher Tier GCSE Maths or National 5 Qualifications.
Yes, our students can attend Mathnasium at our centre or log into live, face-to-face sessions with their tutor.
Each student is given a diagnostic assessment that pinpoints their strengths, knowledge gaps, and unique goals, so that we can create a personalised learning plan that will put them on the best path to maths mastery.
Unlike a maths class, Mathnasium teaches to the individual. Our expert instructors provide face-to-face instruction at the right pace for each student.
We use the Mathnasium Method™, a proprietary teaching approach which combines personalised learning plans with proven techniques to build maths knowledge upon what students already know, so they're able to retain what they learn and gain confidence along the way.
We empower students of all skill levels to excel in maths, whether they are looking to catch up, keep up, or get ahead on their maths journey.
We work with advanced students to expand their maths skills and help them achieve their greatest potential. At Mathnasium, advanced students can explore the subjects beyond their school’s maths curriculum and receive personalised support to achieve their unique academic goals.
If a student is struggling or simply looking to keep up in their maths class, Mathnasium will build upon what they already know, addressing their learning gaps and teaching maths in a way that makes sense to them.
Mathnasium provides premium value by combining a superior learning experience with an efficient structure that keeps costs low. There is a flat enrolment fee for our programme, and students attend regularly—much like a gym membership. We recommend that they attend Mathnasium 2-3 times per week as attending less frequently will slow results and attending too often could lead to student burnout. Pricing varies by programme and geographic area. Contact our centre for more details on enrolment packages.
