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 has helped our kids stay ahead in school and prepare for standardized tests. The instructors are very supportive and knowledgeable. We highly recommend Mathnasium!
My son started at Mathnasium this summer. The difference in his confidence and enjoyment of math in less than two months has been amazing. He looks forward to going and says it’s fun!
This past year at Mathnasium West Newton has been great. My daughter got her homework done, asked questions, and did extra practice. At the same time, she had fun. The result: she kept her grades up and she finds math fun and welcomes a challenge. Julia is friendly and supportive and worked with us on a plan to best suit my daughter’s learning.
It’s been a great experience so far! My daughter didn’t like math and refused to do her homework. after our first month of attending, she’s enjoying math, quickly finishing her homework and her teacher noted significant improvement in class. We highly recommend Mathnasium!!
The team at WBL Mathnasium has made a huge difference in our son’s confidence re: math. He enjoys coming to his sessions, and is always pretty excited to share what he learned and earned. We genuinely appreciate the staff’s patience and attention, and highly recommend this center for anyone looking to gain more comfort with math.
Dave and his team are kind, patient, and skilled across all levels of math, and they truly understand how to adapt to different learning styles. The progress we’ve seen firsthand has been incredible. We’re excited to keep the momentum going and couldn’t be more thankful for the support and confidence they’ve inspired.
