In the 1990’s, education industry pioneers Peter Markovitz and David Ullendorff recognized that, to truly be successful in school and in life, students need a solid understanding of mathematics. There was a vast disconnect, though, between students’ learning skills and the math curriculum they were taught in school.
To address that gap, they founded Mathnasium — a math-only learning center committed to providing the world’s best instruction. Their goal: teach children how to think, with the skills to succeed in math and the confidence to achieve their academic potential.
After an exhaustive search, they found the perfect person to help them achieve their vision: Larry Martinek, a beloved educator, teacher trainer, and curriculum consultant. Larry and Mathnasium’s expert team spent years refining the most powerful teaching methods and materials into the comprehensive, industry-leading Mathnasium Method™.
The trio opened the first Mathnasium Learning Center in Los Angeles in late 2002 and began franchising in 2003. The extraordinary dedication of Mathnasium’s local center owners and staff, combined with Mathnasium’s child-centered approach, proved wildly successful. Mathnasium has become an award-winning, world-class math education company, and global demand for our service has soared.
Since our inception, Mathnasium has been trusted by over a million parents in neighborhood learning centers on five continents.
Mathnasium came highly recommended to us through a trusted friend. It did not disappoint! We are so lucky to have such a gem in the neighborhood. Everyone there is welcoming and good natured, and my son loved the atmosphere there. He left mathnasium feeling confident that he was going stay on top of things and even get ahead.
My daughter has been attending Mathnasium for almost 1 year now and it’s one of the few after school activities that she actually likes! I’ve seen drastic improvement in her math skills as she has been scoring higher on her math quizzes and tests at school. Highly recommend to anyone who wants their kid getting ahead at school!
My daughter went to a private school and then switched to public. She was 2 grades behind in math. Mathnasium was a perfect fit for her to catch up, while also staying on track with her grade-level work in high school. The tutors were great and she actually enjoyed going.
I enrolled my son at Mathnasium to help him get ahead in his studies, and we’ve had an outstanding experience. They tailored a program to fit his needs, and we’ve seen a real boost in both his confidence and his math skills. I’m very happy with the progress he’s made.
We love Mathnasium! My daughter is in first grade and is already close to mastering second grade math. The instructors do such a great job of challenging her while still keeping math fun and exciting. She actually looks forward to going, which says a lot. They really know how to bring out the best in her, and I’m so glad we found this place.
My son loves Math and always a step -ahead. Miss Betty developed a learning plan for him to identify his learning gaps and is now mastering them. He is challenged more-- but appreciates and enjoys it even more! I love his confidence and we owe this to Mathnasium, Miss Betty and her staff. They are all great and are experts in their craft!
Mathnasium is the best tutoring for math ever - the teachers are fun and kind, making it a lot more approachable. My son has progressed a lot in the last 2 months. Happy we decided to join!
