Mathnasium of Kingwood

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. Mathnasium instructors provide encouragement and instruction to each student as they follow the program. [5] For proof of progress, Mathnasium relies on its assessments, as well as students' report cards, independent tests, and parent testimony to measure the speed and magnitude of improvement in math skills, numerical thinking, and attitude. 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 work face-to-face with each student, and the ratio of instructors to students is typically up to 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.
