The Mathnasium Method™
The Mathnasium Method™, our proprietary teaching approach, uses personalized learning plans and interactive techniques to help students develop a deep understanding of math.
My kid is happy every time that she attends Mathnasium. Thank you so much!
Thoughtful instructors that helped build my daughter’s confidence!
The instructors have really helped out my kids, who are on opposite ends of the table: one struggles with math and the other enjoys it naturally. It's great to find ONE place that is organized and can accommodate both types of students.
While private tutors focus on preparing students for tests or providing homework support, Mathnasium focuses on developing a true understanding of math concepts and expanding students’ mathematical thinking.
We use personalized learning plans and Mathnasium’s proprietary teaching method to help students build solid foundations for math mastery and unlock their math potential regardless of their current skill level.
We work with K-12 students in Boston, empowering them to learn and master:
When working with our youngest learners, we usually focus on the earliest building blocks of mathematical thinking:
At this age, children learn best through play and exploration. That’s why our tutors use engaging, hands-on activities, manipulatives, and interactive math games to keep learning fun while strengthening core skills. By introducing math in an engaging and supportive environment, we help children develop comfort with numbers and curiosity about problem-solving.
This early stage also highlights mental math and beginning problem-solving strategies, giving students a head start as they move into elementary school. Our goal is to make math approachable, rewarding, and something your child looks forward to learning.
In elementary school, students transition from basic counting to multi-step operations and reasoning. Our specially trained math tutors typically help elementary school students learn and master topics such as:
When needed, we can also align with Massachusetts state standards to help students prepare for classroom instruction as well as local assessments.
Whether your child is struggling with the basics or ready to move ahead, we create a plan that builds both skills and confidence.
Middle school introduces more abstract math, and this is often where confidence starts to falter. Our specially trained math tutors work with students looking to learn and master classes and topics like:
We can also prepare middle schoolers for high school entrance exams such as the ISEE® and SSAT®. By closing skill gaps and reinforcing grade-level material, our tutors help students enter high school ready to thrive.
We work with high school students of all skill levels, providing tailored and structured support to help them excel in math classes such as:
We also help with the math portions of the SAT® and ACT® exams.
Some students come to catch up after struggling with coursework, while others use Mathnasium to get ahead and prepare for advanced studies. Our personalized plans ensure each student gets the guidance they need to succeed in class, on exams, and beyond.
Yes! In addition to national standardized tests, we also help students prepare for the math portion of the Massachusetts Comprehensive Assessment System (MCAS). This exam measures student performance in grades 3–10 and is an important part of academic progress in the state.
Our tutors review the concepts tested on the exam, reinforce problem-solving strategies, and help students feel confident and prepared for test day. Parents find that this not only improves scores but also strengthens overall classroom performance.
Absolutely. Many families come to us because their child has fallen behind in class. We begin with a diagnostic assessment to find out where gaps exist, then build a personalized plan to close them step by step.
Our caring tutors work face-to-face in a fun group setting, making math approachable and supportive. As students strengthen their skills, they also regain confidence, often going from “I can’t do math” to “I can do this!”
Certainly! Our specially trained tutors work with students of all skill levels.
At Mathnasium, advanced students can explore beyond what they’re learning in school so they can:

We do not follow a traditional curriculum. Instead, our Boston tutors use a proprietary teaching approach called the Mathnasium Method™ which combines personalized learning plans with mental, verbal, visual, tactile, and written techniques to help students excel in math regardless of their current skill level.
Starting with what the student already knows, we help them develop a deep understanding of math concepts and expand their mathematical thinking.
Working with our specially trained tutors and proven methodology, our students report increased confidence as well as academic performance.
Each student begins their Mathnasium journey with a diagnostic assessment, so we can identify their strengths and knowledge gaps, as well as understand how they think about math.
These insights help us develop a personalized learning plan that would put your child on the best path to math mastery.
Yes! While we don’t assign extra homework, our Boston tutors set aside time in each session to help students with their current math assignments.
Homework support is always integrated with the student’s learning plan, so they’re not just completing assignments but mastering the concepts behind them.
We typically recommend 2 to 3 math sessions per week. However, our tutors may recommend a different frequency of sessions based on your child’s unique learning style and goals.
