We passed the re-test! What more can you ask for? The original math test was a challenge, so we brought it to Mathnasium. Three sessions with a tutor, and we passed it on the second attempt. That’s the outcome we were looking for.

My child has been going to Mathnasium since 2018. She has ADHD and a LD in math. Mathnasium helps her prepare her homework, work on her lessons and help prepare with quizzes. She has a very busy schedule and the on-line tutoring with Mathnasium fits perfectly. Her marks are between 75-85 and on some quizzes she has 90. We are very happy with Mathnasium and we will continue until she graduates.

Our son loves the program! We came from Kumon and boy I tell ya this is a breathe of fresh air in comparison. My boy feel is this is a very welcoming environment where he can have fun while learning. Really enjoy that you are teaching him this level. He is not challenged at all in math at school. Thank you for all the kindness and professionalism!

The staff are excellent. I feel they are very invested in my teens success. The team is very versed in higher level math and has been a great match. I would highly recommend them for high school aged students. I only wish we had found them sooner.

I have two children currently attending Mathnasium. Both of their math marks at school have improved tremendously. My daughter is in grade 10 and her math teacher has recommended that she becomes a student tutor. My kids were both struggling with math before they attended Mathnasium and now they have confidence in their math skills. In our experience, Mathnasium has been a very positive investment in my children's education.

We absolutely LOVE the results we are seeing from Mathnasium. The only difference I'd love to see is a bit more flexibility in the pricing. We find 10 sessions difficult to squeeze in a month and yet we are billed for them regardless if we use them or not. We will eventually stop attending due to this.

Since we enrolled our daughter Luciana Gutierrez into this amazing program, her math skills and confidence has improved dramatically. Looking back, she used to struggle to the point she didn't enjoy going to school. Now things has changed for good, her confidence risen to the top, her math skills better than ever before. She loves going to Mathnasium, the staff is amazing, she feels really good going there. On behalf of my daughter Lulu, we want to say thank you, you've been a great inspiration to her.

My daughter is in year 2 of the IB program and has struggled with math all through the pandemic. After she started getting help at Mathnasium her anxiety around math was greatly reduced and her marks also improved. The tutors have been amazingly patient, kind and are very knowledgeable with the advanced math of the IB program.

The mathnesium team has been absolutely amazing! I never thought on-iine math would ever work for my son, but it has. Mostly because of the patience, dedication and focus of his teacher. My son gets distracted easily but his main teacher Josh has figured out a way to keep him on task and keep him improving.
In person classes are also offered but our schedule doesn't allow us to attend in person. The mathnesium team has adjusted their schedule to facilitate classes for us on-line outside of regular hours, for which we are very greatful. Thank you Mathnesium!!!

Guelph Mathnasium is a place where as a parent I am confident that the management and teachers are giving full attention to my girls and work on any deficiencies in their maths concepts.
I really recommend Mathnasium for the kids who need extra help Or want to do advance maths.

We are very happy with the support we are getting at Mathnasium. My child has a learning disability in math and it is of paramount importance to get additional time with a math tutor. The results speak for themselves on the report card. This is our 3 year of using Mathnasium and we will continue to do so. I highly recommend Mathnasium to any parent who wishes to provide additional support to their child.

Our daughter struggled adjusting to grade 9 math. When we started her at Mathnasium she was barely passing, and now she’s finishing Grade 10 math with 90%! Her confidence in her abilities has soared and we’re so thankful to all the staff at Mathnasium for making the experience so enjoyable. Our daughter never complained about going and she really enjoyed the staff. And as a parent, I was so pleased with the level of communication - I felt a part of the experience too. It was a great experience and a worthwhile investment!

Mathnasium is super great because I have really improved a lot of my math skills which helps in class. I have tried over the years to remember my multiplication but it just hasn’t worked and since I’ve gone to Mathnasium I can actually remember them so much better. From Bella (I’m in grade 7)

Love the idea that there are so many qualified staff on site. If my son doesn't connect with one of the instructors he has 4-5 others that he can connect with . The other great thing is that each one of the instructors has a different way of teaching the same thing.
Thanks for having such an amazing staff!
