Frequently Asked Questions

Contact your local Mathnasium Learning Center with any questions you may have about elementary math school tutoring. Here are some of the more common ones we get:

  • What is considered below grade level in elementary school?

    When a student is performing below grade level, it means that their math skills are not on par with their peers'.

    Students with below grade level skills are struggling to keep up in their math class which usually impacts their confidence and desire to put effort into their studies.

    At Mathnasium, we create personalized learning plans to help students develop solid foundations for math mastery and put them on their best path towards math mastery.

  • How do I know if my child needs help in math?

    Key indicators that a student may need additional support in math include:

    • Consistent difficulty with homework
    • Frequent frustration or anxiety during lessons
    • Lower-than-expected test scores
    • Inconsistent understanding of basic math concepts
    • Avoidance of math-related tasks or activities
    • Lack of confidence in math skills

    Mathnasium offers a free diagnostic assessment for enrollment, which helps identify each student’s skill level and pinpoint the areas they need help with. The assessment-based insights help us create personalized learning plans that will set the student on their best path to math mastery.

  • How can I make sure my 5th-grader is ready for 6th-grade math?

    At Mathnasium, we understand that each student’s learning style, needs, and paths are unique.

    To assess readiness for 6th-grade math, we typically look at their ability to:

    • Solve word problems
    • Represent data on graphs
    • Compare decimal numbers
    • Understand fractions and mixed numbers
    • Grasp ratios and rates
    • Work with negative numbers and percentages


    At Mathnasium, we begin by assessing a student’s skill level to identify their unique strengths, knowledge gaps, and goals, which allows us to chart their path to math mastery.

  • Which curriculum does Mathnasium use to teach elementary school math?

    Mathnasium’s specially trained tutors do not follow a specific curriculum. Instead, we employ a proprietary teaching approach called the Mathnasium Method™.

    Our approach combines personalized learning plans with mental, visual, verbal, tactile, and written techniques to help students develop a deep understanding of math and grow their knowledge gradually, level by level.

  • What elementary school math topics will your sessions cover?

    We help students master any elementary school math class and topic, including:

    • Addition & Subtraction
    • Multiplication & Division
    • Fractions

    • Percents
  • Do Mathnasium’s elementary school tutors help with math homework?

    Yes. Our tutors will set aside a portion of each session to help students with their math homework.

  • What happens during the initial assessment at Mathnasium?

    At Mathnasium, we understand that assessments can sometimes feel stressful for students, so we designed ours to make students feel comfortable and confident from the get-go. We start by building rapport with students, giving them a short center tour, and setting expectations.

    We conduct both a verbal and written assessment to understand how each student approaches and thinks about math. This also helps us identify their strengths, areas for improvement, and goals to create a learning plan personalized to their unique needs.
