Mathnasium of Fuquay-Varina

Specialties

«We know how to teach your child math.»

Our specially trained math instructors will teach your child how to understand math in an individual setting — our unique approach enables us to effectively explain math concepts well and lend a helping hand to every student. Our tutors foster a caring, encouraging environment that helps kids thrive and learn!

«We pinpoint your child’s learning needs, meet them where they are, and take them where they need to go.»

Mathnasium instructors use our unique assessment process to determine (with great accuracy) exactly what each child knows and what they need to learn. Next, we design a customized learning plan for teaching the concepts the student needs to master. It doesn’t stop there — our encouraging instructors continually check progress along the way to make sure kids truly understand and retain the concepts we’ve taught. The results are transformative — kids will see measurable changes in attitude, confidence, and school progress.

«We will help your child overcome homework frustration.»

Our instructors will also set aside time to provide homework help. We help kids understand the homework assignment so they feel better prepared to complete the work at home — underscoring their understanding of concepts and transforming homework frustration into a welcome challenge.”

History

Established in 2013.

More than thirty-​five years ago, Larry Martinek was inspired to find a better way to teach children math. As a teacher-​trainer and consultant in public and top private schools, and father to a mathematically gifted son, Larry possessed an incredibly comprehensive view of education. In his work with both stellar and struggling math programs, he clearly identified a common theme in mathematics instruction: a «serious disconnect between students’ basic skills training and the curriculum they are expected to master in the years to come.»

Spurred by the challenges in math education, Larry decided to find an approach that would provide grade-​school children with the strong mathematical foundation they need to succeed.

In the spring of 2002, Larry’s dream came true. Peter Markovitz and David Ullendorff, leaders in the education industry, made Larry and his curriculum the driving force of Mathnasium. Larry introduced his curriculum as the Mathnasium Method™.
