Does your Child need a Boost in Confidence?

Through our program your child will develop skills that take the fear out of math and allow for a new way to approach problems that complements math taught in school.

 

Learning exciting new ways to look at math, both students looking for new challenges in math and students struggling in the subject benefit from the Math Monkey program.

 

In just one session a week you will see your child’s abilities and understanding of math grow. Math Monkey is taught in a small class setting, allowing students to interact and learn from each other while still gaining personal attention from the teachers. For students that need a more personal approach, Math Monkey offers specific one-on-one tutoring from our trained assistants in addition to our weekly classes.
