"We know how to teach your child math."
Our specially trained math instructors will teach your child how to understand math in an individual setting - our unique approach enables us to effectively explain math concepts well and lend a helping hand to every student. Our tutors foster a caring, encouraging environment that helps kids thrive and learn!
"We pinpoint your child's learning needs, meet them where they are, and take them where they need to go."
Mathnasium instructors use our unique assessment process to determine (with great accuracy) exactly what each child knows and what they need to learn. Next, we design a customized learning plan for teaching the concepts the student needs to master. It doesn't stop there - our encouraging instructors continually check progress along the way to make sure kids truly understand and retain the concepts we've taught. The results are transformative - kids will see measurable changes in attitude, confidence, and school progress.
History
Established in 2019.
More than forty years ago, math educator Larry Martinek was inspired to find a better way to teach children math.
As a classroom teacher, teacher-trainer, and consultant in public and top private schools--and father to a mathematically gifted son--Larry possessed a uniquely comprehensive view of education. He saw a troubling theme in mathematics instruction: a serious disconnect between the students' basic skills training and the curriculum they were expected to master in the years to come. They weren't being prepared properly for their future.
Larry set out on a mission: to find an approach that would provide children with the strong foundation they needed to succeed. Over the next three decades, he painstakingly developed and assembled a blend of methods and materials. Instead of relying on traditional rote memorization and repetitive exercises, Larry's work focused on helping children understand math by honing their math instincts and getting them to think like mathematicians.
Meet the Business Owner: Dan M.
Dan has a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration from the University of Central Florida. He has been with Mathnasium since 2014. During that time, Dan has mastered the art of teaching from the fundamentals of mathematics, to higher level topics like Statistics and Calculus. He feels strongly that no child can learn in a passive, noninteractive environment and that "greatness" exists in all students. Over Dan's years with the program, he has made it his mission to create a culture in the center where asking questions is encouraged and every child receives the individual care they require. Dan feels this will act as a pathway to excellence in Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (S.T.E.M.) related career fields
