• Why do you require an assessment for enrolment?

  Each student begins their enrolment process with a diagnostic assessment to understand their current skill level, identify learning gaps, and set academic goals. This allows us to create a personalized learning plan that supports their unique path to success. 

• How do you teach math? What curriculum do you use?

  At Mathnasium of Vaughan, we do not follow a traditional curriculum. We use our proprietary approach called the Mathnasium Method™, which combines personalized learning plans with proven teaching techniques to develop solid foundations for math mastery.  

  Our approach builds on each student’s existing knowledge, addressing the gaps in their understanding and introducing new concepts gradually and in a logical sequence. We work with students to expand their mathematical thinking so they can build the skills and confidence to excel in the classroom and beyond. 

• Do you use calculators?

  We do not use calculators in our centre for elementary students as we want them to understand each of the steps they are taking while doing calculations. High school students may require calculators and we allow them to use them as needed. 

• Do you work with advanced students or students who are struggling with math?

  We support students of all skill levels.  

  Students who are behind in math class receive caring, targeted instruction to rebuild foundational skills and confidence. Advanced learners benefit from enrichment opportunities that challenge their thinking and deepen their understanding.

If a parent does not want their child to have their cell phone on the teaching floor, they can have their student leave it at the front desk until their session is concluded.
