The trick that makes you overspend
Aug 12, 2019
"In his book, Predictably Irrational, Dan Ariely described how The Economist uses a decoy effect to encourage readers to opt for a more expensive subscription to its magazine. In this case, the publishers offered a digital subscription for just $59, a print subscription for $125 and a third option of a combined print and online subscription for the same price – $125. The print-only choice here is clearly a decoy, since it offers less than the print and online package for the same price, but Ariely found that its mere presence substantially increased uptake of the combined subscription (rather than the digital only). Indeed, when only two options were available, readers were 52% more likely to go for the much cheaper online-only option, compared to a choice involving a third decoy. "
It's funny (and scary?) to think that the mathematicians within us can easily fall victim to the decoy effect - despite us knowing that the math does not make sense! Even more reason to strengthen our mental math skills and have them ready-to-go, to guide us on the cheaper path ;)

The manager, Paul, is very helpful and patient when it comes to answering my questions as well as helping me with the kids schedule. My kids enjoy going to their sessions and find them extremely helpful. When they have trouble with a lesson in school, they are happy to have a place to go to for help. Amazing job to everyone at the Vaughan location!

Mathnasium is a great tutoring centre to further strengthen your mathematical abilities. I have been attending Mathnasium for five years now, and it has always encouraged student success. It is dedicated in enforcing its students' understanding on math concepts The instructors are very friendly and interactive with students, always willing to provide assistance with one's learning . Mathnasium also has an enjoyable system of events to not only motivate students to consistently work diligently, but to have fun as well. The events are comprised of monthly challenges in which students will be put on a team to earn points, weekly popcorn days, weekly themes and more. Mathnasium offers work that corresponds to their students' work in school and teaches easy-to-learn strategies for students to use.
I am always excited to go to Mathnasium during the week because I get to learn new things. The centre has a "welcoming" feeling to it which makes me feel comfortable and happy. You get to surround yourself with other students and tutors which builds close bonds.

Emma is really happy with the support that she is getting with Mathnasium. In addition to strengthening the fundamentals, Emma has the opportunity to work through homework and prepare for tests and exams in a supportive, knowledgeable environment. We are really happy with the program. So glad we walked through your door...

My 11 years old son, loves math after starting Mathnasium. Now it’s one of his weekly routines to go to Mathnasium. He loves the staff and teachers and also he loves when it’s popcorn day or he gets stars and he is very motivated to continue on math. The best of all is that he is on top of his classmates standards and that makes him very much proud and confident. All in all , it’s a hundred percent recommendation on my behalf to start and to stick with Mathnasium.
Everyone gets benefit and everyone happy.

The instructors are energetic and kind which counts for a lot with kids who may struggle with asking for help due to insecurity or feeling rushed by their school teacher. The Vaughan location provides a quiet, supportive atmosphere dedicated to learning. I found that Mathnasium was more equipped to accommodate individual student needs compared to two other tutoring businesses that I researched and attended orientation for.

My son enjoys going to Mathnasium and I see big improvement since. Without mathnasium he would not be able to get A's in Math. He loves the friendly staff and always gets motivated with the amazing prices Mathnasium have. The progress report helps us know how well he's doing. Homework help comes in handy too. Robin is quick with any questions we have and very accomodating.Thank you Mathnasium in helping my son have a great learning experience.

I believe Mathnasium does its best to strengthen students' math
skills, and hopefully create enjoyment while doing it.
One of my boys feel struggled during some of the lessons and
hope his time at Mathnasium doesn't become too stressful.
Otherwise, the place is great; location, the staff, the atmosphere and mood.
