I don't even know where to start. The staff is amazing, they absolutely let the kids know they are important and smart. They celebrate the wins with the kids and coach them through the hiccups.
Chris is one of the most organized site managers I've ever seen and he deserves a raise!

Caleb loved going to Mathnasium. He is now a straight A math student. My son missed almost the entire 2nd grade because of covid and missed out on important building blocks that Mathnasium pointed out.

My child started at Mathnasium near the end of the last school year. When we told him he’d be going throughout the summer, he was excited…EXCITED…to go to math tutoring over the summer. His math grades have improved and more importantly, he doesn’t meltdown when doing homework or classwork nearly as much. He still enjoys going to his sessions and his confidence has grown.

We brought our son to Mathnasium after a year of school-at-home due to Covid. He was really needing the in-person refresher before starting middle school. He is now thriving in 6th grade Math!! And most importantly he LOVES Math and now considers it one of his stronger subjects, after being almost a half grade behind at the end of 5th grade. Cannot recommend Mathnasium enough!!!

I can't say enough good things about Mathnasium. The people are wonderful, the facility is clean, comfortable and safe. Best of all, the program works! My daughter was over a year behind grade level in her math when we started working at Mathnasium. She caught up very quickly and then surpassed grade level. She was placed in a math class for gifted students and is currently averaging 100% on all tests and quizzes. I would recommend Mathnasium to anyone.

Mathnasium has been a blessing to our student, who was struggling with math. After the first session she learned something new and had previously learned math concepts clarified. After 2-3 months of consistently attending her confidence in math and other areas improved and she is now not only caught up but is getting ahead of grade level in math.

Mathnasium is a fantastic place. Their assessment is thorough, showing us gaps in our child's math history that we did not know were there! They are knowledgable, flexible, friendly, and relaxed. Very thankful to have found Mathnasium!

We have always had a pleasant experience at Mathnasium. My kids have liked all the tutors. We have kids in middle and high school and they have always been able to help with any math homework. This place keeps the stress down for both the parent and child. They are good at what they do!

We like it alot, and its been very helpful to Sophia. The only wish/request I would ask is to add more time slots available on weekends. We are very active with activities and often just don't have the time during the week. We would love to see Sat and Sun times whether they are in person or even remote and that would help her tremendously. Thats often when she gets the extra work in on weekends.
thanks

My daughter has been going to Mathnasium since the third grade. She is now a senior. The instructors are kind, caring, and supportive. They have helped to foster my daughter's love of math and numbers. The program not only helps build stronger math skills, it builds your child's confidence. It provides a positive environment that makes math fun. My child has never had a negative experience throughout her many years of instruction at Mathnasium. I highly recommend Chris and his team of excellent instructors.

We did not start very long ago but I am very pleased so far with the progress my son is making. He enjoys his time with you and has already mastered skills that were difficult and frustrating to him just a few short weeks ago. We have a ways to go but he is already feeling more confident and that is priceless in my book. Thank you for what you have done and what you will do to make math better for my child.

My daughter has attended Mathnasium since third grade. She is now a junior in high school. Not only do they do a fantastic job of building a student’s math skills, they build their self confidence. They have created a wonderfully nurturing environment where kids feel safe and able to seek help. My daughter loves Mathnasium and so do I.

Our daughter was having trouble at school with math. The personnel at Mathnasium addessed virtually all factors hindering her grasp of math from her initial tested level to her actual grade level. With well thought out incentives, constant help, and regular evaluations, our daughter has made continual progress from F grades to high B's in math at school. Indications are that she is understanding more and likely to continue improvement.

My son has improved his math grades and other grades as well. What more can I ask for?

What a life savor: My son was getting a low C last year in Pre-Algebra in 8th Grade. Within 8 months using the Mathnasium process he is now getting an A 94% in 9th Grade Algebra.
What a turnaround: His attitude towards Math and all other classes is amazing. Structure, focus and discipline the necessary ingedients that I believe make up a successful student has been taught. It also helps with the incentives as my son does not even play on his x box.
Thanks Mathnasium for the turnaround.

The most impressive result after starting Mathnasium is the level of math confidence my daughter has now. She is not afraid anymore and she actually looks forward to doing math!

I have an advanced middle schooler, a struggling elementary student, and an early learner at home. Mathnasium has an individualized program to meet each of their specific needs. Their fun environment and caring staff are welcoming to all level students, and the rewards my kids get help them set goals to save up for.

My daughter loves coming for tutoring in Math. She describes it as “fun,” and it clearly feeling more confident. She conceptually understands a lot of grade-appropriate Math, but was missing some important foundational skills. She has enjoyed strengthening those. We already have recommended Mathnasium to friends at her school.

My daughter has never been so excited about learning math! I love the idea they will teach what the schools want, along with other methods of solving problems since not all children learn the same. I feel the schools could learn some tips from that :)

Hello. I'm Chris Fey, Center Director of Mathnasium of West Knoxville, 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 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.
