Mathnasium of Kingwood
We Make Math Make Sense
Mathnasium's approach begins with an assessment that determines what a student knows and doesn't know. Then, a prescriptive and personalized learning program is created. Each student follows the program with the help of specially trained Mathnasium math instructors who provide instruction and encouragement. Mathnasium uses its assessments as well as student report cards, independent test, and parent testimony as proof of progress. Mathnasium divides instruction into four levels: early education, elementary, middle, and high schools. 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 are in direct contact with each student. The ratio of instructors to pupils is usually 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 grade student work, and ensure that each worksheet is correct. This reinforces the Mathnasium Method (tm), which focuses on getting the process right.
