Dear Parents,
Whether your child is attending school this fall or taking classes online, they’re still coping with learning loss due to the pandemic. Academic experts agree that math has been the hardest hit subject. Because math knowledge is cumulative, this loss must be remedied before students can move forward. The time to fix it is now.
Mathnasium’s Kickstart Program was designed specifically to reverse “COVID slide” learning loss, with live, face-to-face instruction and custom-built learning plans to get your child back on track and ready to tackle challenging new concepts. They can learn in our center or live online with Mathnasium@home.
We want to be your math education partner. No matter what school looks like for your child, we’ve got their back — and yours. Join tens of thousands of parents in transforming their children’s math skills. Simply call or email to schedule a free assessment.
Wishing you health,
