For decades the Mathnasium Method™ has transformed the way kids learn math. We build a foundation for math mastery through deep understanding by starting with what they already know, addressing any learning gaps, expanding their mathematical thinking, and adding new concepts in sequence. At Mathnasium, we we teach children math in a way that makes sense to them.

Mathnasium was founded by Larry Martinek, David Ullendorff, and Peter Markovitz with the realization that to truly be successful in school and in life, students need a solid understanding of mathematics. Their goal: teach children how to think, with the skills to succeed in math and the confidence to achieve their academic potential.

The trio opened the first Mathnasium Learning Center in Los Angeles in late 2002 and began franchising in 2003. The extraordinary dedication of Mathnasium’s local center owners and staff, combined with Mathnasium’s child-centered approach, proved wildly successful. Mathnasium has become an award-winning, world-class math education company, and global demand for our service has soared.

Since our inception, Mathnasium has been trusted by over a million parents in neighborhood learning centers on five continents.
