I contacted Mathnasium in a time of need for my daughter. Not only did they succeed in engaging my daughter in her grade 10 math & brought up her grades. My daughter has continued learning, as she knows going forward this will assist her in life. So, THANK YOU specifically to Sara & Duncan. Don’t look elsewhere, this is the place to learn!

My daughter recently wanted to go to school sick, just so she would could write her math test. She did not want to miss it. 18 months ago she would have been celebrating being sick on a test day. This is all due to Mathnasium.

I’ve been thrilled with Mathnasium since we joined just over a year ago. They always go above and beyond to ensure that my girls understand the material and entertain all my special requests for additional content. All of the instructors are excellent and there is always consistency no matter who my child works with. They are always trying to build confidence and enjoyment with the math. I couldn’t be happier with Mathnasium especially during time like COVID.

My daughter has struggled with Math since beginning school and we've tried Kumon as well as personal in-home tutors. No organization has reached my daughter like Mathnasium has. The instructors are top notch and communicate in a way that I've never witnessed before. They seem to know exactly what each individual student needs to succeed and their patience is immeasurable. They reach her as no one else has. I'm so very thankful for Mathnasium and would not hesitate to recommend them highly. The instructors at the Wilson location are amazing!

My daughter’s confidence has gone from 5% to 90% in the last year. She was 2 years behind in math and is now only a year behind and is working slowly towards reaching her current grade level. Mathnasium provided her with the building blocks she was missing from the early grades. She also had a learning disability specifically with numbers and they have taken the time and patience to work with her understanding her challenges.

The progress we’ve seen with Nate has been remarkable. He really enjoys coming to Mathnasium and finds the time flies by when he’s here. He’s gained more confidence at school and we’re seeing a real change reflected in his marks.

I can’t speak highly enough about the program and instructors at Mathnasium in Downsview. They are all truly dedicated to building my daughters skills and confidence and giving her a sense of empowerment when it comes to math. She loves to go and enjoys the challenges and incentives they provide. I’m doubly pleased that they entertain my daughters specific interests and help with any problem areas of math that may arise at school outside of their program.
I do wish that they had longer hours though, particularly on weekends when we sometimes find it hard to make it within their four hour window.

Mathnasium is a friendly and fun environment for my child to learn the concept of numbers (addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, etc). Using various techniques like the rewards system along with verbal, writing and tactile (board games, card games) to make learning fun. The environment is clean and bright with plenty of instructors for students who is needs help understand the concept. With the open concept of the facility I can either wait in the waiting area or I can return in an hour. While waiting in the waiting area I notice no one student is left to learn on their own, each instructor are proactive in assisting each student who comes in into the facility. While the price of admission comes higher in comparison to Kumon the experience is very different and is well worth a try, my daughter enjoys coming in and always excited to learn.
I recommend Mathnasium for the fun experience, active instructors and open concept learning. Sara Shen and her stuff are doing an excellent job.

Staff at Downsview mathnasium are very friendly, kid-oriented and approachable. Sara follows up with parents regarding the program and asks how we would like to add or adjust the program. What areas we would like our child to develop more and if he is not yet ready, they get him to do more work to solidify his understanding.

The team at Mathnasium Downsview are fantastic! They definitely know their math but more importantly they know how to teach and pass those skills down to the students. We saw a huge improvement after just a few weeks.
They use different problem solving methods than the schools use that is easier to understand. They reward the students on completed work to make it fun too.

Our experience thus far has been wonderful! My daughter has really started to enjoy math and gained confidence in the subject!
My only concern is that her attention is reduced at times and she asks for a lot of support when it’s not required. It would be helpful if the staff could deal better with these challenges.

Hello. I'm Sara Shen, Centre Director of Mathnasium of Downsview, your neighbourhood math-only learning centre. We help kids in grades K -12 understand math by teaching the way that makes sense to them.
When math makes sense, kids leap way ahead – whether they started out far behind or already ahead in math. Our formula for teaching kids math, the Mathnasium Method™ has transformed the way kids learn math for over a decade across 1,000+ centres in the US and Canada:
Our specially trained math instructors will teach your child how to understand math in an individual setting – our unique approach enables us to effectively explain math concepts well and lend a helping hand to every student. Our tutors foster a caring, encouraging environment that helps kids thrive and learn!
Mathnasium instructors use our unique assessment process to determine (with great accuracy) exactly what each child knows and what they need to learn. Next, we design a customized learning plan for teaching the concepts the student needs to master. It doesn’t stop there – our encouraging instructors continually check progress along the way to make sure kids truly understand and retain the concepts we’ve taught. The results are transformative – kids will see measurable changes in attitude, confidence, and school progress.
Our instructors will also set aside time to provide homework help. We help kids understand the homework assignment so they feel better prepared to complete the work at home – underscoring their understanding of concepts and transforming homework frustration into a welcome challenge.
