Owner just took away rights from people. I wouldn’t trust my kids to be here.

Horrible experience
We've had a GREAT experience and such a positive outcome from the programs here. Highly recommend.
My daughter actually has "fun" doing math at Mathnasium, which is something I never thought would happen. She really thrives with their reward-based system.
Mathnasium has fundamentally changed the course of my children's learning journeys. We came here by recommendation as our daughter was struggling with fourth grade math and cited it as her weakest subject in self assessments. One year later she is consistently a top performer, but more importantly, now cites math as her greatest strength. Our son is here as well, and they both LOVE coming here to learn. It's absolutely extraordinary to watch.
My son absolutely loves it. His confidence level is increasing with every tutor session.
Mathnasium has done a fabulous job helping my daughter achieve the grades in math that my wife and I knew she could. Very happy with the results, and her confidence in mathematics is soaring!
My sons math got a lot better.
My daughter entered Mathnasium with zero self confidence and behind her peers at school. After one summer and the first couple of months of the school year, she is a different child. She is scoring well on school assessments, she has confidence in herself, and has made so much growth. She loves her teachers at Mathnasium and is very motivated by the rewards they offer. I would recommend this to any parent looking for extra math help for their child.
What a fun learning atmosphere! Love the convenience of the drop off. Dexter is a sweetie and all the instructors are fun and help make learning enjoyable!
