Students from 3rd through 8th grade participate in ATLAS math assessments and students in grades 9 and 10 take the ATLAS end-of-course exams for Algebra I, Geometry, and Biology.

No, there isn’t. Mathnasium’s online ATLAS 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.
To start their Mathnasium enrollment, students take part in a diagnostic assessment which allows us to identify their math knowledge gaps and strengths.
We use the assessment-based insights to create a personalized learning plan that will put your student on the best path towards achieving their academic goals.
Local learning centers will determine the ideal frequency of sessions based on the student’s skill level and specific goals. We typically recommend 2-3 sessions of 60 minutes per week.
