Frequently Asked Questions

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

  • What is ACAP?

    ACAP, or the Alabama Comprehensive Assessment Program, is an annual statewide standardized testing system that evaluates students' mastery of the Alabama Course of Study Standards across three subjects: English language arts (ELA), mathematics, and science.

    All Alabama public school students from 2nd through 8th grade take the ACAP in math and English language arts (ELA).

    Additionally, students in 4th, 6th, and 8th grades are also tested in science.

  • When do students take the ACAP math test?

    Students take the ACAP math test once a year in the spring.

  • How do ACAP test scores affect students in Alabama?

    ACAP test scores serve to evaluate the students’ mastery of core subjects. In Alabama, ACAP scores, including math scores, can affect the students’:

    • School Grades and Transfers: Scores impact school report card grades and influence students' ability to transfer schools.
    • Promotion and Support: They determine if students meet grade-level standards, affect promotion to the next grade, and identify those needing extra support.
    • Individual Progress: Detailed reports help parents and educators track each student's academic strengths and areas needing improvement.
  • Does Mathnasium tutor students for ACAP English Language Arts (ELA) sessions?

    No, Mathnasium is a math-only learning center that prepares students for a variety of K-12 math classes and tests.

  • How does Mathnasium prepare students for ACAP math?

    Mathnasium’s ACAP math tutoring provides comprehensive preparation for the test by focusing on math concepts students will face on the exam.

    Our specially trained tutors use personalized learning plans and a range of interactive teaching techniques to help students bridge their knowledge gaps while enhancing critical thinking and problem-solving skills.

  • What teaching method does Mathnasium use to prepare students for the ACAP?

    Mathnasium’s ACAP math tutors use the Mathnasium Method™, our proprietary teaching approach designed to help students truly understand and enjoy math. The Mathnasium Method™ includes:

    • Personalized Assessment and Learning Plans: We start by assessing each student’s current skill level, identifying strengths and knowledge gaps specific to ACAP requirements.
    • Building on Existing Knowledge: Our approach begins with what the student already knows, helping them bridge their knowledge gaps and leverage their strengths.
    • Math That Makes Sense: We teach math in a way that makes sense to each student, using a range of mental, visual, verbal, tactile, and written techniques. This creates a supportive and engaging learning environment that enhances critical thinking, problem-solving skills, and confidence.
  • Is there any difference between Mathnasium’s online and in-center ACAP math tutoring?

    No, there isn’t. Mathnasium’s online ACAP math tutoring is the same as our in-person sessions.

    Students who choose to attend Mathnasium online will receive the same quality of live face-to-face instruction and even work with the same tutors they would meet at their local learning center.

  • What kind of assessment do students take to enroll at Mathnasium?

    To begin their Mathnasium journey, students take part in a diagnostic assessment which allows us to identify their knowledge gaps and strengths.

    We use the assessment-based insights to create a personalized learning plan that will put each student on the best path towards achieving their academic goals.

  • How often should my student attend math sessions to prepare for the ACAP?

    We typically recommend 2 to 3 sessions per week. However, our tutors may suggest a different frequency of sessions based on each student’s specific goals and needs.

    We recommend starting the ACAP preparation early to allow the student enough time to learn and master the math concepts they'll face on the test.

  • How can I enroll my student for math tutoring at Mathnasium?

    Getting started with the ACAP math tutoring at Mathnasium is as easy as one-two-three:   

    1. Find a location. Contact your nearest learning center, even if your student will be learning online.
    2. Schedule an assessment. Our diagnostic skills assessment helps us create a customized learning plan for your student.
    3. Book your sessions. Your local Center Director can guide you and your student in setting up a tutoring schedule.
