LOS ANGELES — An exciting kick off to the largest sporting event in the world, Mathnasium Learning Centers, an internationally known franchise with over 1,100 math learning centers worldwide, has launched its first-ever ‘Ace Your Dreams’ scholarship opportunity in partnership with former Mathnasium student, World Champion, and the first U.S. Olympic skateboarding medalist, Jagger Eaton.

The contest, running throughout the August 11th, will award one deserving child a $2,000 scholarship to Mathnasium. The campaign aims to ignite the aspirations of children by encouraging them to draw inspiration from the journey of Eaton and share their own “A+ Moment” of a personal victory or challenge they overcame.

Whether it’s acing a math test, winning a race, exploring a new hobby, hitting a homerun, or mastering multiplication tables, Mathnasium is dedicated to fostering and celebrating victories of all sizes.

Jagger Eaton’s Background: 
Before becoming a World Champion, Eaton attended Mathnasium Learning Center in Mesa, Arizona during his grade school days. Initially struggling to balance his skateboarding with his academics, and unsure of his academic potential, Eaton found inspiration and support at Mathnasium, where he gained the confidence to excel in his studies and pursue his dreams. Eaton, who is competing in front of the world this summer, was excited to collaborate with the brand to recount his journey of success, aiming to inspire students nationwide to recognize the importance of academic learning while celebrating their achievements, big and small.

“Partnering with Mathnasium to offer this scholarship holds deep, personal significance for me,” said Eaton. “My experience with Mathnasium was transformative, not just academically, but in every aspect of my life. During my elementary and middle school years, balancing academics with my passion for skateboarding posed a major challenge. However, Mathnasium quickly became my safety net, and through the guidance of my instructors, my grades started significantly improving and I caught up faster than I ever dreamed I could.”

Entry Details*:

• Families are encouraged to visit the ‘Ace Your Dreams’ contest page and submit their child’s “A+” moment. They can also take advantage of various fun, downloadable worksheets encouraging strategic thinking and creativity.
• Post-submission, participants can download a gold medal certificate. By proudly posting a picture of their certificate on social media with the hashtag, #AceYourDreams and tagging Mathnasium’s Instagram page, they will be entered to win a skateboard signed by Jagger Eaton.
• The grand prize winner will be selected by Jagger Eaton and receive a $2,000 scholarship in the form of a certificate, providing approximately 6 months of complimentary Mathnasium instruction at their local learning center, in addition to a congratulatory cameo video.
• The contest will officially open for submissions on July 1^st, and will close at 11:59 pm PDT on August ^11th.
• The winner will be revealed by Mathnasium on August 31^st. They will be contacted directly via social media to coordinate details.

“We are committed to encouraging our youth to value their accomplishments, no matter the magnitude, because we understand how crucial it is for nurturing confidence, motivation, and inspiration,” stated Michael Stanfield, Chief Marketing Officer of Mathnasium. “At Mathnasium, we firmly believe there is no limit to what can be achieved. Partnering with Jagger Eaton to launch this scholarship enables us to empower students nationwide, providing them with a platform to proudly showcase their unique moments of success.”

Mathnasium Learning Centers specializes in math-only tutoring and is committed to providing the world’s best instruction. The goal: teach children math in a way that makes sense to them.

“As a slower learner and avid skateboarder with a dream, Mathnasium provided me a safe and comfortable learning environment to build my math skills from the ground up. They worked with my intense schedule, and helped to boost my confidence both at the skatepark and at the desk,” stated Eaton. “My Mathnasium instructors taught me that triumphs can be as small as landing a new trick to as big as winning a gold medal, and that all victories should be celebrated, both academic, and in life.”

Leader in Math-Only Education Continues to Grow International Footprint, Now Spanning 11 Countries

LOS ANGELES — Mathnasium Learning Centers, an internationally known franchise with over 1,100 math-tutoring centers worldwide, announces a new signed master franchise agreement with Ms. Dana Bănică that will bring at least 25 learning centers to Romania over the next six years. This marks an important milestone for the brand—breaking into a new country and growing its global footprint.

Dana Bănică‘s Background

• Master Franchisee, Dana Bănică, is an experienced and successful entrepreneur with a passion for innovative education. In 2018, Banica became Logiscool’s first Master Franchisee by bringing the coding school to Romania.
• She established in her country a network of more than 60 coding schools to offer children and teenagers high-quality, engaging, and interactive digital literacy education.
• Building on her success with Logiscool, Bănică knew it was the right time to bring Mathnasium to Romania. Her ultimate goal is to transform the way Romanian children learn and enjoy mathematics, continuing her mission to provide exceptional educational experiences that inspire and empower the next generation.

“I chose to invest in Mathnasium because I wholeheartedly believe in the brand’s mission and methodology,” stated Bănică. “Drawing from my past experience and witnessing the positive impact of engaging educational programs, I recognized Mathnasium’s potential to truly make a difference in Romania. With its proven approach of making math enjoyable and accessible, Mathnasium aligns perfectly with our objectives. Our aim is to instill a love for math in children and nurture the confidence essential for academic success and beyond. Romania is primed for this transformative shift, and I’m thrilled to play a leading role in this educational revolution.”

The current educational landscape in Romania underscores a noticeable absence of dedicated math tutoring centers, a gap that Mathnasium is ideally positioned to address.

Mathnasium’s Global Footprint

• In the past two years, the brand has announced projections of opening an additional 25 centers in Vietnam, the brand’s largest international market, and 45 centers in Saudi Arabia.
• With the news of this signed franchise agreement, company leadership projects international development to grow by more than 25% in 2024, compared to the previous year.
• There continues to be vast growth potential across India, Pakistan, Malaysia, Indonesia, the Philippines, Spain, and several South American countries.
• Mathnasium offers a unique, individualized approach to students worldwide, which can effectively address the diverse needs of students, helping them overcome math challenges and reach their full potential.

“Expanding into Romania is an exciting opportunity for us. The country’s cultural emphasis on education, with over 50% of students in primary and secondary grades using tutoring services, shows their commitment to academic excellence that aligns perfectly with our mission,” said Benjamin Simon, Regional Vice President of International at Mathnasium. “Additionally, Romania’s growing middle class and franchise-friendly environment make it an ideal market for rapid expansion through Master Franchising. We are excited to bring our unique approach to math education to Romanian students and contribute to their academic success.”

Leading Math-Only Supplemental Education Franchise Positioned for Substantial Growth in Booming Education Sector

LOS ANGELES — Mathnasium Learning Centers has announced that its largest multi-unit franchisee, Mo Khalil, has received a strategic investment from Snapdragon Capital Partners, a private equity investment firm that partners with the founders and executives of high growth consumer companies.

Through the investment, Khalil and Snapdragon will sign a development plan to open 25 additional Mathnasium centers over the next five years.

Khalil comes from humble beginnings as an immigrant from Egypt who experienced homelessness at a young age, but has now grown to become a successful entrepreneur – and has been a top-performing franchisee for nine consecutive years in the Mathnasium network. Khalil established Khalil Ventures in 2010, and what began as one center in Central Florida has now grown to a portfolio of nearly 55 centers throughout the United States. With the brand’s established curriculum and teaching methods, combined with its proven business model, Khalil has built a multi-unit empire. He’s also been recognized by Mathnasium for “Best Turnaround of a Resale” and “Top Multi-Unit Operator by AUV.”

With the global education market expected to reach $8 trillion in value by 2030, prospects or prospective franchisees are looking to stake their claim in Mathnasium’s franchise opportunity.

“I am extremely excited to begin working with Snapdragon to add to Mathnasium’s next chapter of growth,” said Khalil. “When I first immigrated to the United States, learning English and assimilating into New York City’s Bronx County was challenging. But with an entrepreneurial spirit and a passion to achieve the American dream, I was able to open my first Mathnasium and do what I love most – teach math. This signed development plan will be monumental not only for me, but also for the entire brand. We look forward to bringing Mathnasium to new markets and helping even more students.”

Snapdragon is a trusted partner for growth companies seeking to achieve their full potential. Having been primarily focused on health and wellness brands, this alignment also serves as a milestone for Snapdragon as it marks the brand’s entrance into the education industry. Through this partnership, Mathnasium is groomed to provide additional resources to support its fast-growing franchise network.

“We are incredibly excited to partner with Mo and his talented team,” said Mark Grabowski, Managing Partner of Snapdragon. “He has built an incredible portfolio and has an unparalleled track record of success. We look forward to entering the education sector and supporting the next stage of growth for Mo and Mathnasium.”

Mathnasium Learning Centers specializes in math-only tutoring and is committed to providing the world’s best instruction. The goal: teach children math in a way that makes sense to them. For decades the Mathnasium Method™ has transformed the way kids learn math — building students’ understanding of math concepts through personalized instruction and a customized learning plan — all while producing tremendous results and helping students achieve their full potential in math and in life.

“The partnership between Mo and Snapdragon showcases Mathnasium’s healthy franchise model, strong AUV, and new center growth potential in the industry,” said Mike Davis, CEO of Mathnasium. “The investment by Snapdragon is a signal to existing franchisees of the value of their center/portfolio and speaks volumes about the strength of the network at a center level, as well as territory expansion opportunities. The best upside with the deal is that 25 new communities will get a Mathnasium, and many more kids and families will change their lives through math.”

With prime territories available, Mathnasium provides franchisees with comprehensive training and support, including an initial training program, ongoing training, a balanced approach between corporate and locally driven marketing to capture the addressable market, and access to proprietary software tools and resources. Company leadership has identified California, Illinois, New York, and International as prime regions for growth, and is actively seeking both single and multi-unit operators looking to stake their claim in the growing education sector.

Math-Only Supplemental Education Franchise to Offer In-Person + Online Resources to Homeschooling Parents

LOS ANGELES — With the popularity of homeschooling on the continued rise, Mathnasium Learning Centers, an internationally known franchise with over 1,100 math learning centers worldwide, has announced its newest partnership with The National Homeschool Association (NHSA), which provides support, programs, and resources to over 1 million homeschoolers nationwide.

Homeschooling has become America’s fastest-growing form of education with over 4.3 million homeschooled students in the U.S. The partnership, which includes a virtual Mathnasium storefront on the NHSA Home Learning Store website, was forged in an effort to join forces on providing homeschooled families access to information regarding supplemental education services. The company expects to see increased enrollment from homeschooled families as a result of the partnership.

“As the rise in homeschooling has not slowed down since the pandemic, it has proved to be a mainstay of the educational system,” said Mike Davis, CEO of Mathnasium. “As a leader in supplemental education, we have continued to see an increased demand for our services, and we are thrilled to offer homeschooling parents both in-person and online support. Our structured program with customized learning plans for every child not only supports academic progress, but provides the opportunity for homeschooled children to socialize with kids their age.”

On a mission to make homeschooling easier on both parents and students, Mathnasium will provide a comprehensive assessment that pinpoints a child’s exact strengths and areas for improvement, a customized learning plan detailing the specific concepts needed to meet their learning goals, and live, face-to-face instruction, either in-center or online.

The fast-growing brand has experienced a record increase in student enrollments as the spike in supplemental education continues and math scores show an alarming decline since the pandemic. This paired with its proven 20-year-plus business model, has contributed to Mathnasium’s long-standing industry success as it continues to expand its global footprint.

“Because Mathnasium instructors approach each session with individualized math instruction for every child, providing new perspectives and ways to learn, homeschooled students will increase their comprehension and build their math skills,” Davis noted. “As a result, their confidence will grow, leading to a natural love of learning.”

With prime territories available, Mathnasium provides franchisees with comprehensive training and support, including initial and ongoing training, locally driven marketing support and access to proprietary software tools and resources.

Leader in Math Learning Centers Continues Strong Performance as Demand for Services Surges

LOS ANGELES — Mathnasium Learning Centers, an internationally known franchise with over 1,100 math learning centers worldwide, closed out 2023 with 59 centers opened and 81 franchises awarded. The fast-growing brand has experienced a record increase in student enrollments as the spike in supplemental education continues and math scores show an alarming decline since the pandemic. This paired with its proven 20-year-plus business model, has contributed to Mathnasium’s long-standing industry success as it continues to expand its global footprint.

The franchise’s impressive performance has earned multiple awards and recognition, most notably ranking No. 80 in Entrepreneur‘s highly competitive 2023 Franchise 500^® ranking, and No. 1 within the math tutoring category. Other notable accomplishments of 2023 include inclusion in Entrepreneur’s Top Low-Cost Franchises, Top Global Franchises, and Top Brands for Multi-Unit Owners. The brand was also included in Franchise Business Review’s Top Education Franchises, Rock Star Franchise Owners, Top 200, Recession-Proof Franchises, and 10-Year Hall of Fame. Lastly, Mathnasium was included in Franchise Times’s Top 400, and Franchise Dictionary Magazine’s Top 100 Game Changers.

“As we reflect on the past year, we have seen an increasingly high demand for supplemental education services,” said Mike Davis, CEO of Mathnasium. “For students across the globe, there is still a long road of recovery from pandemic-related learning loss ahead, and we are determined to continue leveraging our best-in-class expertise and resources to help students improve their math skills through fully individualized learning plans.”

With a bolstered leadership team in place – including Michael Davis as Chief Executive Officer, Michael Stanfield as Chief Marketing Officer, Tyler Sgro as Chief Operating Officer, Kristin Goedke as SVP Field Operations, and Kevin Shen as Chief Development Officer – Mathnasium is hyper-focused on a 2024 vision of driving brand awareness and growing franchisee unit-level volume, while expanding its global footprint with single and multi-center operators.

On a mission to bring the most up-to-date technology solutions to its franchisees, the brand recently partnered with Tinuiti, the largest independent performance marketing firm across search, social, streaming+ and marketplaces, to create an all-new Centralized Digital Marketing program. Additionally, Mathnasium built a data warehouse and BI Dashboards via Amazon.com platforms, Redshift, and Quicksight. These investments were made in an effort to bring to bear the power of the global brand and gain stronger market exposure, qualified leads, and overall number of enrollments.

“We strive to consistently provide enhancements to our franchisees’ business management portal and plan to implement new marketing automation solutions to drive higher conversion rates and enhanced customer retention,” said Davis. “Additionally, we continue to adapt to the needs of our consumers. Our virtual learning platform is more advanced than ever, giving students the option of a streamlined hybrid in-center and at-home learning experience. Moving away from the traditional five days open to six or seven, and opening our center doors to students before school hours, has resulted in more student enrollments per center than ever before.”

Alongside this strong performance, Mathnasium remains focused on franchise development. While continuing to expand domestically, the development team sees vast international growth potential across India, the UK, Australia, the UAE, Vietnam, Mexico, Saudi Arabia, the Philippines, Spain, and Latin American countries, among others. The company recently announced a renewed master franchise agreement in Vietnam for an additional ten years, confirming a commitment to open an additional 25 centers, solidifying Vietnam as the brand’s largest international market.

“The development plans in the pipeline are projected to further grow Mathnasium’s footprint both domestically, and internationally,” said Kevin Shen, Chief Development Officer of Mathnasium. “By continuing to support existing franchisees who are expanding and welcoming new multicenter investors, we will not only achieve our growth goals, but have the privilege to reach more students across the globe with a time-tested business model and curriculum.”

With prime territories available, Mathnasium provides franchisees with comprehensive training and support, including an initial training program, ongoing training, a balanced approach between corporate and locally driven marketing to capture the addressable market, and access to proprietary software tools and resources.

Leader in Math Learning Centers Continues to Open New Locations Abroad, Projects 20% International Growth for 2023.

LOS ANGELES — Mathnasium Learning Centers, an internationally known franchise with over 1,100 math-tutoring centers worldwide, continues to grow its global footprint by opening four new international centers in Q1, with an additional four slated to open over the next two months. Building on this momentum, company leadership projects international development to grow 20% in 2023, compared to the previous year.

In Q1, Mathnasium proudly opened centers in Al Olaya, Riyadh, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia; Al Juraina, Sharjah, United Arab Emirates; South Kensington, London, United Kingdom; and Al Maqtaa, Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates. These openings contribute to the brand’s overall global footprint that now spans 70+ centers across eight countries outside of the U.S. and Canada.

The opening of the Riyadh center is a milestone for the brand, marking its entrance into Saudi Arabia, and the first of 45 centers slated to open across Saudi Arabia over the next 10 years. The master franchisee behind this development agreement is Asma Aldahlawi, who was born and raised in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and has vast background in business and education.

“I first learned about the Mathnasium franchise opportunity after my son attended the learning center remotely and achieved tremendous improvements in his math abilities,” said Aldahlawi. “It has been incredibly rewarding to open our first center, and, in our first two months of operations, we’ve already exceeded enrollment goals. We have eyes set on continuing to develop in Riyadh and other major cities around the Kingdom.”

The opening of Mathnasium’s first center in Saudi Arabia comes at a pivotal time, aligning with the Saudi “Vision 2023” program. “Vision 2023” is built around three primary themes: a vibrant society, a thriving economy, and an ambitious nation. Quality education is being placed at the forefront, and Mathnasium looks forward to assisting children across Saudi Arabia to reach their goals.

“We have ambitious international development plans,” said Kevin Shen, Chief Development Officer of Mathnasium. “What we’ve been able to achieve in Q1 sets the tone for what’s to come during the rest of the year as we work to partner with sophisticated operators to support the brand and our growth journey. As we continue to grow across the globe, we look forward to empowering even more students through our customized learning plans and proprietary method of teaching.”

Company leadership sees vast growth potential across India, the Philippines, Vietnam, Spain, Mexico and certain South American countries, among others — all with the goal of opening the brand’s 100^th international location in 2024.

Key to Mathnasium’s international expansion is its proven 20-year-plus business model and the booming global after-school programs industry. Mathnasium has experienced a record increase in student enrollments as the spike in supplemental education continues to climb.

Kevin Shen Leads Brand Development for Internationally Known Math Learning Centers.

LOS ANGELES — Mathnasium, an international franchise leader with over 1,000 math tutoring centers and counting, has appointed Kevin Shen as Chief Development Officer.

Kevin joins Mathnasium with 13 years of investment banking and franchising experience. For the last eight years, he has been an executive at Jackson Hewitt Tax Service Inc., mostly recently serving as the Vice President, Head of Real Estate Development and Franchise Sales.

The hiring follows recent c-level leadership changes announced earlier this year as the company continues to invest in the direction and support system for franchisees.

“Being immersed in the franchising and investment banking world, I had always admired private equity backed brands and have a ton of respect for Michael Davis and his extensive experience as a CEO working with top-notch companies. As I met more of the leadership team and franchisees, it became clear why this is the perfect time to join Mathnasium with its endless industry tailwinds,” said Shen. “It is also so easy to get behind the mission of changing lives through math. Our reputable global brand and the passion behind our franchisees is so authentic, it cannot be replicated.”

Shen and the team will be hyper-focused on growing Mathnasium’s footprint, attracting more multi-center operators and supporting existing franchisees with expansion.

“It was important to find a leader like Kevin who aligns with Mathnasium’s values and believes in our larger mission to make math enjoyable by teaching true comprehension,” said Michael Davis, CEO of Mathnasium. “Our franchisees are seeing record breaking enrollments as families seek additional local resources to help their children improve grades in math and reach new levels of understanding. Every new center ensures Mathnasium’s mission will get to more student’s, families, and communities.”

Mathnasium hit over 100,000 enrollments in the U.S. for the first time in the company’s history as the spike in supplemental education continues to climb.

Based on the findings of The Nation’s Report Card 2022, which is conducted by the National Center for Education Statistics, a branch of the Education Department – math scores show major decline for Fourth and Eighth-Graders throughout the pandemic.

“Our Center Directors, math instructors and small business owners around the world are using the time-tested Mathnasium Method to make a difference in their local communities,” said Shen. “We’re intentionally growing this brand because of the rewarding results for both students, families and franchisees. Our high NPS scores and annual accolades show that we have a fantastic playbook for how to thrive in the math education sector.”

Mathnasium retains its position as the leader in the math tutoring space by offering comprehensive assessments, fully individualized learning plans, and teaching true math comprehension. The Mathnasium Method™ is a proven proprietary teaching method and the driving force behind the company’s growth since 2002.

Michael Davis Appointed as CEO and Michael Stanfield Named CMO.

LOS ANGELES — Mathnasium, an international franchise leader in math tutoring, has added Michael Davis as Chief Executive Officer and Michael Stanfield as Chief Marketing Officer.

Davis joined Mathnasium in July after spending the last 12 years in C-suite leadership roles for private equity-owned companies. Most recently, he served as the Chief Executive Officer of Valpak, a franchised network. His focus throughout his career has been on growth, driven by product or service enhancements, pricing strategies, marketing excellence and customer service. Davis has led B2B and B2C companies in various industries, including multi-unit franchising, eCommerce/DTC/3PL and media.

“It’s an honor to be part of the Mathnasium family and to further its mission of changing children’s lives through math,” Davis said. “The chance to bring the Mathnasium Method to more children is an exhilarating opportunity for Michael, myself and the entire Mathnasium network.”

Joining Davis to further strengthen the brand’s global reputation and reach as the most trusted company providing math-only supplemental education, is Michael Stanfield, who was named Chief Marketing Officer in September.

Stanfield’s previous roles include VP of Marketing for Starkey Hearing Technologies and Head of Marketing for Miracle-Ear, a franchise system with over 1500 locations in the United States. Previously, he held various leadership roles in marketing strategy and planning at Target for nearly nine years.

“Mathnasium’s curriculum and teaching have the power to change lives for students and their parents. I’m excited to work with the franchise owners, center directors and instructors who get to see these transformations happen in their own communities,” said Stanfield. “I’m looking forward to connecting even more people with our outstanding content.”

This month marks 20 years of Mathnasium making a difference in the lives of students and their families. The Mathnasium Method™ is a proven proprietary teaching method and the driving force behind the company’s growth since 2002.

Mathnasium remains the leader in the math tutoring sector by offering comprehensive assessments, fully individualized learning plans, and teaching true math comprehension. The same level of care, teaching approach and open communication is provided to parents with initial student evaluations and real-time progress reporting; and extended to the franchisees to ensure they’re equipped with the latest tools, processes and systems for effective operations.
