Mathnasium of Kingwood
We Make Math Make Sense
The Mathnasium approach first revolves around an assessment to determine what a student does and does not know. Then, a prescriptive and personalized learning program is created. Mathnasium instructors provide encouragement and instruction to each student as they follow the program. Mathnasium uses its assessments as well as student report cards, independent test, and parent testimony as proof of progress. Mathnasium separates levels of instruction into early education, elementary school, middle school, and high school. Students advance to a new level of study when they demonstrate mastery of the subject through completing mastery checks, where students have to answer a worksheet of problems correctly without help from instructors. Instructors work face-to-face with each student, and the ratio of instructors to students is typically up to 1:4. Students are encouraged to bring their homework in and receive help with it. Students are encouraged to complete their work and earn prizes. They can also enter drawings for larger prizes, like gift cards. Instructors also grade student work and make sure that each worksheet is correct, which reinforces the Mathnasium Method(tm) of focusing on getting the process correct.
