No, all learning takes place in-session with the support and guidance of our skilled tutors. Adding homework would risk frustration and overload. However, we set aside time during each session to help students with their school homework.

We usually recommend attending Mathnasium 2-3 times a week for the best results.

Students who attend less often might take longer to see results, while attending too frequently could make them feel tired and overwhelmed. Our goal is to find the right balance to avoid burnout and keep students motivated.

Our tutors excel at transforming how students learn and feel about math. Here’s how we do it:

• Personalized Approach: We start with an assessment to identify each student's strengths and areas for improvement. By tailoring our instruction to their needs, we provide a solid foundation for building confidence and self-esteem.
• Building Success Incrementally: We break down complex precalculus topics into manageable parts, allowing students to experience success at each level, boosting motivation.
• Creating a Supportive Environment: Whether students learn in-center or online, they’ll feel safe to ask questions, make mistakes, and learn at their own pace.
• Fun Rewards Program: Students are recognized for completing assigned learning plan materials with stamps which they can redeem for exciting rewards from our Rewards Cabinet. This motivates them to keep striving for success.

Mathnasium's precalculus tutors can teach a variety of topics to help students succeed. They cover domain and range, composition of functions, exponential growth, conic sections (like circles and parabolas), and limits.

Our tutors break down the process of evaluating limits by explaining each step. They start by teaching students the basic concepts and principles behind limits to build a solid foundation.

Then, they introduce techniques like direct substitution, factoring, rationalizing, and using trigonometric identities to evaluate limits effectively.

Throughout the learning journey, tutors encourage students to ask questions and engage in discussions to truly understand the “why’s” behind numbers and formulas. They use visual aids, diagrams, and real-life examples to help students visualize and understand the behavior of functions as they approach specific values.

Mathnasium's precalculus tutors are highly skilled in teaching conic sections, including circles, parabolas, ellipses, and hyperbolas.

Our tutors will not only explain the general equations and characteristics of each conic section, but also emphasize their geometric properties and algebraic representations.

They will guide your student through the process of graphing conic sections, and enable them to identify essential features like the center, radius, foci, eccentricity, and asymptotes.

Absolutely! We meet your child where they are and guide them where they need to go with customized learning plans for any level and math subject.

Besides precalculus, our tutors are skilled in helping students with algebra, geometry, trigonometry, and more.

It’s as easy as:

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