Mathnasium of Kingwood
We Make Math Make Sense
The Mathnasium approach first revolves around an assessment to determine what a student does and does not know. Next, a personalized and prescriptive learning program is made. Mathnasium instructors provide encouragement and instruction to each student as they follow the program. 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 can advance to the next level of study if they show mastery of a subject by completing mastery tests, where they have to correctly answer worksheets of problems without assistance 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 in homework and get help on it as well. 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.
