Mathnasium of Edina's personalized algebra tutoring programs are designed to support students at every stage of their math journey.
Our caring tutors help students make the leap from concrete arithmetic to abstract thinking, mastering integers, fractions, order of operations, and variables that form the foundation for Algebra 1.
Using proven teaching techniques, we guide students through multi-step equations, linear functions, graphing, and word problems, transforming this high-stakes course into a confident stepping stone toward future math success.
Students master fast-paced, complex concepts—factoring polynomials, quadratics, exponentials, and logarithms—with targeted support that builds the advanced problem-solving skills required for Precalculus and college preparation.
At Mathnasium of Edina MN, our specially trained math tutors help students of all skill levels excel in Prealgebra, Algebra 1, and Algebra 2, as they master key topics from introductory expressions to advanced functions and equations.
We provide personalized, face-to-face instruction in a caring and fun small-group environment. Our tutors use clear, everyday language, meet students where they are, and help them develop the understanding and confidence they need to succeed in algebra.
We use the Mathnasium Method™, our proprietary teaching approach designed to help students truly understand how algebra works. This approach strengthens critical thinking, problem-solving skills, and long-term retention.
Our tutors combine proven interactive techniques with personalized learning plans tailored to each student’s needs and learning style. We make algebra clear, meaningful, and easier to apply both in the classroom and in everyday situations.
Each student begins their Mathnasium journey with a diagnostic assessment to identify current skills and knowledge gaps in algebra. Using assessment-based insights, we create a personalized learning plan that targets exactly what each student needs.
Once the plan is created, our tutors deliver targeted instruction, evolving according to each student’s learning style to close any learning gaps, strengthen their baseline foundation in algebra, and build lasting confidence every step of the way.

What do you like most about learning?
I love that learning opens the door to discovery. There’s always a moment when something “clicks,” and seeing students experience that spark of understanding is incredibly rewarding. Learning encourages curiosity, builds confidence, and shows students that they are capable of more than they realized.
What is the biggest impact you’ve had on a student’s ability to become proficient in math?
One of my most impactful experiences was working with a student who believed they “just weren’t a math person.” Through consistent support, individualized strategies, and celebrating small successes, the student not only caught up academically but started approaching challenges with confidence. By the end of our time together, they were proudly taking on advanced problems and helping their peers—proof that mindset and encouragement can transform a student’s relationship with math.
How do you make learning math fun for students?
I make learning math fun by connecting concepts to real-life situations, using games and hands-on activities, and encouraging students to explore different strategies. When students feel engaged, supported, and free to be creative, math becomes something they look forward to rather than something they fear.

What do you like most about learning?
Many of the things I learn aren’t as obvious as they first seem. I like going beyond what I take at face value and figuring out what’s going on at a deeper level.
What is the biggest impact you’ve had on a student’s ability to become proficient in math?
My instruction is most impactful when I facilitate a feeling of individual discovery. Those “eureka!” moments are my favorite part of Mathnasium, because they always come from a true leap in understanding.
What type of math do you enjoy teaching most?
Math is arguably the most abstract area of study one can learn. While it is certainly interesting by itself, I derive the most enjoyment from its applications, especially physics.
How do you make learning math fun for students?
I find that students often become bored and disinterested when they don’t understand the reasoning behind the formulae or methods they’re applying. Instead, deriving these ideas from intuition is not only more rewarding, but also more fun and engaging.

What do you like most about learning?
Seeing how the topics you learn apply to the world around you. I find that really interesting and satisfying.
What is the biggest impact you’ve had on a student’s ability to become proficient in math?
I've seen kids gain a grasp on a topic they didn't previously understand, and link it to something they've learned before.
What type of math do you enjoy teaching most?
I enjoy teaching Algebra the most.
How do you make learning math fun for students?
I try and engage students on their terms, I find it easier to talk with them and they seem to like Mathnasium more than the teaching, say, at school.

Years of experience teaching math:

What do you like most about learning?
I love being able to apply what I have learned to real life situations. I think learning is more than just digesting the facts, but also having to apply critical thinking skills, which tells you why the facts matter.
What is the biggest impact you’ve had on a student’s ability to become proficient in math?
A lot of students come into the center scared to attempt problems by themselves, worrying about getting wrong answers. I hope that I have reassured students to always apply themselves and not worry about making mistakes when learning new things.
What type of math do you enjoy teaching most?
Algebra because it's so important in more difficult types of math.
How do you make learning math fun for students?
I really like having conversations with kids while they do their work, asking them questions about their work themselves.
