My child has gone from thinking she can’t do math to realizing that she can indeed. Her confidence has soared and the instructors there are the reason. In my daughters words” The teachers are all so kind and they understand that everybody learns differently, and they find a way to explain it to each student” Mathnasium is worth every penny.

My Daughter has had the opportunity to attend Mathnasium online for a number of years. It has helped lay a foundation for her math ability and comprehension of logic that was not available in the mainstream school system. I really appreciate this service and thank the very friendly owner of this location, Mark, for the continued excellence they provide.

We are very happy with the math classes at Mathnasium (South Barrie) for my daughter.
The Mathnasium teachers have a wonderful way of making math fun and engaging for young children. The interactive lessons and hands-on activities keep my daughter excited about learning. She comes home with a big smile on her face, eager to share what she’s learned.
Moreover, the Mathnasium teachers have a knack for creating a nurturing and supportive learning environment where every child feels valued and encouraged to reach their full potential.

My son's teacher has noticed a difference in math in terms of his confidence, stating,"He is beginning to see himself as a capable math learner, and has strengthened his sense of ownership of his learning in math class." I am very happy to have continued this support, as he enjoys it too.
Thanks to Mark and staff.

My daughter has developed the tools to understand the math and its fundamentals. Mathnasium have a put a great program that specializes my daughter’s development stages. All together, the work my daughter puts in, are the results, and in a very short time, I’ve convincingly seen her understanding and her grades improve dramatically. In our situation, the covid may have contributed to her past grades however mathnasium was here to compensate for loss time. Convenient and great tutors with one on one support. Keep up the hard work everyone. Great job Mark!

We’ve had a great experience with the Mathnasium. Our high schooler had been struggling for a few years, but with regular sessions at the Mathnasium, not only have his marks improved, but his confidence and belief in himself. He actively looks forward to going. He reports the staff is great. 10/10 from us.

My son is really enjoying his Mathnasium experience. His knowledge and confidence in math has substantially improved. He is learning at a grade above his current school level, thanks to Mathnasium. The tutors are all very friendly and helpful. I would recommend this program to all students for either enrichment math or for tutorial learning.

My daughter started at Mathnasium having zero confidence and hating math. She slowly rebuilt her knowledge and with that came better grades. With better grades came confidence and with confidence came enjoyment. We will be utilizing Mathnasium for her entire high school years. It is well worth the investment.

Mathnasium has been a very positive experience for my daughter who was struggling with Math during the pandemic. The program is comprehensive yet simple, the online platform user friendly, and the teachers are excellent. We were skeptical at first, that multiple teachers may not work for our shy student, but the lively personalities and dedication of all the teachers was refreshing and she looked forward to logging on. Her skills improved steadily in a stress-free environment and her grades are continuing to improve. She regained her love of math along with a new found confidence in her skills. We recommend Mathmasium with enthusiasm to anyone looking to support their students education.
