[quote=Anonymous]We used Mathnasium for enrichment in upper elementary. DS loved it being able to do things he wasn't doing at school. They let him work at higher levels and there just wasn't a ceiling for what they were teaching him. He continued to attend in middle school but by that time, the center's focus shifted to keeping up with homework. Couldn't really blame them for it since my kid had to keep up with his homework too but there was just no more time for "fun stuff."

DS who is now a rising Freshman and was just talking about how he really enjoyed mathnasium. He said they taught him to see patterns in problems. At school, they give you the formula and you plug the numbers in.  At Mathnasium, they give you the problem, you figure out the best "formula" or technique to use based all the other things you learned.

DS isn't a drill and kill kind of kid.  He loves going in depth with topics. Doesn't enjoy too much repetition. He isn't fast at math but has a deep understanding. He's very strong with logic. [/quote]
