Alberto Carabarin
Centre Director/ Owner
Alberto earned a B.Sc. in Mathematics from Universidad de las Américas–Puebla and later completed a PhD in Mathematics at the University of Ottawa, specializing in Probability Theory. He also worked as a postdoctoral researcher at McGill University.
While tutoring in university math help centers, Alberto developed a passion for helping students build a strong foundation in math. That experience inspired him and his wife, Adriana, to open Mathnasium in Kanata. In his spare time, Alberto enjoys spending time with his family, watching sports, and playing the occasional video game.

Adriana holds a B.Sc. in Actuarial Science and came to Canada to pursue a PhD in Mathematics at the University of Ottawa. While tutoring in the university's Math Help Centre, she discovered how much she loved teaching students of all ages and levels.
