Our tutors foster a caring, encouraging environment that helps kids thrive and learn!   We pinpoint your child’s learning needs, meet them where they are, and take them where they need to go. 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.   We will help your child overcome homework frustration. Our instructors will also set aside time to provide homework help.
