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.
Success in math is 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 Algebra and 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 backwards.
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 brought my daughter to Mathnasium for extra help with math, and after a few weeks we saw a real improvement. Her school math scores went up, and her confidence improved just as much. The staff are very supportive and consistently take the time to work with students. Overall, the Mathnasium curriculum has helped my daughter immensely.
Can’t say enough good things about Mathnasium. I loved how everything was so transparent; progress and struggles. I knew exactly what my kids were working on at every session and how they did at the end. Truly such a great investment. 10/10.
My highschool daughter finally has a tutor she loves working with for math. She has struggled since 1st. I am not sure why I never looked into Mathnasium until now. We are both very pleased.
My daughter loves Mathnasium. She looks forward to every session. I look forward to picking her up and hearing about how well she did in her session that day. She has developed confidence and enthusiasm for new challenges concerning math.
My daughter genuinely looks forward to going to Mathnasium. We used to struggle with getting homework done before 8pm. Now she's doing much better. Doug and his team of scholars have all of our gratitude!
I cannot say enough about Miss Linda and the amazing team at mathnasium. I have 3 kids ages 8-15 and they all enjoyed the summer torturing program. Miss Linda is so kind and intelligent, it is easy to see why the kids love her.
Both Mr.Sulu and Mr.Sherry are very friendly, collaborative and walk the extra mile to make things happen. The tutors all are knowledgeable and teach in effective way. My daughter progressed a lot in the field of Math and this place is worth every penny.
Karissa is an amazing employee who consistently helps every student and parent with the utmost professionalism and respect. She steps into any role seamlessly and runs things both effectively and effortlessly. She truly is an asset and does an outstanding job. — Tony. C
