For decades the Mathnasium Method™ has transformed the way kids learn math. We build a foundation for math mastery through deep understanding by starting with what they already know, addressing any learning gaps, expanding their mathematical thinking, and adding new concepts in sequence.
This proprietary method works for kids of all ages and skill levels, whether they’re struggling in math, doing okay but could be doing better, or are already excelling but need more of a challenge. When kids see what they can achieve because of their proficiency in math, it can alter the course of their entire lives.
We take our students on a journey of learning, through assessment, customized learning paths and targeted lessons for understanding and comprehension.
We begin with a comprehensive assessment, which includes both a verbal and written component, to pinpoint their exact strengths and weaknesses.
This plan is created for each child based on their assessment, so they will truly learn and grow in their mathematical thinking.
Our expert instructors don’t just teach students to memorize or calculate; they teach them to truly understand the way math works.
This is the key to success in math—the understanding of what numbers mean and how they work together. And Number Sense isn't just for young kids. We work on these topics through the levels shown below before moving on to other higher math disciplines.
Counting
Counting is the key to unlocking addition and subtraction in early math development. At Mathnasium, our initial goal is to have a student become comfortable with counting to any number, from any number, by any number, forward and backward.
Wholes And Parts
As students begin to understand the relationship between a whole and the parts, a world of mathematical concepts and exercises can be explored. Once students have mastered these skills, they have little trouble with algebraic problem-solving.
Quantity and Denomination
The quantity and denomination construct examine two aspects of numerical value. Quantity asks “how many” and denomination asks “of what.”
Proportional Thinking
Proportional thinking establishes a fundamental base that leads to a stronger understanding of critical concepts like ratios, direct and indirect variation, and algebraic reasoning.
The Law of SAMEness
The Law of SAMEness is a concept students naturally apply in their reasoning without being aware of it. For example, quantities of apples and bananas cannot be added together unless first being changed so that they have the same name, which is fruit.

Mathnasium students make tremendous strides in comprehension, confidence, and grades.
We’ve had a great experience with Mathnasium! Both of my daughters attend, and their confidence in math has really improved. Deli is amazing—so patient, kind, and supportive. She makes learning enjoyable and helps the kids truly understand the material. Highly recommend to any parent looking for extra math support!
This location is well run and staffed. The owner, Rafael takes a personal interest and cares deeply about the success of his students. He has an excellent way of interacting with the kids, making them feel comfortable and being very patient and kind. I could not ask for a better person to help guide my son with his math struggles. Thanks Rafael!
Staff has been so friendly and helpful, my kid has always struggled with math and it's caused so much anxiety. Since starting at mathnasium we have seen such an increase in his confidence and abilities! He's actually enjoying learning, which has been such a relief. Highly recommend!!
These guys are great. Awesome teachers, great environment, and smart incentive programs for the kids. My son is actually excited to go learn math and leaves happy. Thanks, Mathnasium!
Love the Mathnasium at Guilford. Our son loves coming here. I appreciate the prompt responses and help with his class schedules and the regular updates on his learning progress.
Mathnasium regularly shares reports on the progress of your child which I think is great. Booking system is online and easy to use. Teachers are nice and children enjoy their time there.
My daughter has had some very unique challenges with math. Roya and her team at the Waterdown Mathnasium have patiently worked with her. While my daughter still has a way to go, she's starting to feel confident about her math abilities. This is a BIG step forward.
Everything is the best here. Our children's math scores have definitely improved. This place is educational, stable, solid reinforcement, kindness, warmth, pleasant environment, hygienic environment, and geographical location are really good. I'm going to move soon. I think I'm going to miss this place. I highly recommend it.
