Frequently Asked Questions

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

  • What is NJSLA?

    NJSLA, or the New Jersey Student Learning Assessments, is an annual statewide standardized testing program that measures students’ mastery across two subjects: English language arts (ELA) and mathematics.

    The NJSLA assesses:

    • ELA: For students in grades 3 through 9
    • Mathematics: For grades 3 through 8 and specific high school courses, including Algebra I, Geometry, and Algebra II
    • Science: In grades 5, 8, and 11
  • When do students take the NJSLA math test?

    Students in New Jersey typically take the NJSLA math test in the spring.

  • How do NJSLA scores affect students in New Jersey?

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

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

    No, Mathnasium is a math-only learning center. Our tutors prepare students for a variety of K-12 math classes and tests, including the NJSLA.  

  • How does Mathnasium prepare students for NJSLA math?

    Mathnasium’s NJSLA math tutors follow personalized learning plans that focus on the math concepts the student will encounter on the NJSLA.

    In our NJSLA math tutoring sessions, we break down challenging problems into manageable steps. We use a range of mental, verbal, visual, tactile, and written techniques to help students truly understand and enjoy math.

    As a result, 90% of students report improved academic performance after enrolling at Mathnasium.

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

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

    • Personalized Assessment and Learning Plans: We begin by assessing each student’s current skill level, identifying strengths and knowledge gaps specific to ACAP requirements.
    • Building on Existing Knowledge: Our personalized learning plans build upon what the student already knows, helping them bridge their knowledge gaps and gradually expand their mathematical thinking.
    • Math That Makes Sense: We teach math in a way that makes sense to the student, using a range of mental, visual, verbal, tactile, and written techniques to enhance their critical thinking, problem-solving skills, and confidence.
  • Is there any difference between Mathnasium’s online and in-center NJSLA math tutoring?

    No, there isn’t. Mathnasium’s online NJSLA 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 is necessary to enroll at Mathnasium?

    Typically, we recommend 2 to 3 math tutoring 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 NJSLA math tutoring 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 NJSLA 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.
