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.
The team at mathnasium N. Andover was incredible!! They helped my daughter recognize her strengths and weaknesses in a nurturing and encouraging environment. They gave her the confidence to realize she’s a great math student in a way the school system doesn’t.
We are very pleased with our daughter’s progress since she started Mathnasium. While she is currently receiving help for her high school Algebra class, they are also filling in the gaps from previous years.
Mathnasium has been great for our child! We noticed there were a few gaps in her math fluency that we wanted to smooth out, and Mathnasium's program made bridging those gaps fun and motivating. Our child's grades and MAP scores improved and we are so proud of her progress. Best of all, she looks forward to all her sessions!
This place is amazing! The Assitanant director Elaine is amazing she is very polite and amazing! I been going to mathnasium for over a year truly it’s great and helped me a lot! Definitely recommend going here if you need help with math!!! 😊
When my oldest started we were hesitant, but it has turned out to be well worth the time and money! There has been a significant improvement in math understanding, confidence, and test scores! And he actually likes it enough where he has now convinced his younger sibling to attend! Easy to schedule too. Only regret is not starting sooner!
My daughter has a love/hate relationship with Math. She finds is easy, but boring and she wanted to continue her proficiency while still being challenged. Mathnasium works for her because she remains motivated. It helps a ton that the tutors and the administrators are kind, supportive, and smart. Just the right environment for her, and us.
It is hard to get my son to do anything academic at home without a fight, But he loves going to Mathnasium never gives me a hard time about going. He’s shown a huge improvement in a short time. We are very grateful.
My daughter went to SLP Mathnasium for 8th grade and increased her MCA score from does not meet to solidify in the meet range. She is now in 9th and getting an A in Geometry. Thank you to the Mathnasium team!
Our daughter was struggling in 5th grade math so we tried Mathnasium at the start of 6th grade. Not only is she doing well, but she’s excited to go AND looks forward to math tests at school! Lori and the team are so helpful with a great approach that resonates with kids! We highly recommend Mathnasium!
My 5th grade daughter loves Mathnasium! It’s been so helpful in building her confidence and skills, and she actually looks forward to going each week. Highly recommend!
See our method
