Instructors should enjoy working with and being around children/students. Mathnasium students work from a planned customized Mathnasium curriculum generated from the results of each student's Mathnasium Math Skills Assessment. Assessments are designed to produce appropriately challenging learning plans for each student. Mathnasium tutors do not have to develop student learning plans or methods of presenting subject matter - Mathnasium does that in a preplanned and structured manner. Tutor's efforts are focused on presenting the Mathnasium curriculum and adding context. Tutors work in teams - generally three tutors working with groups of 7 to 9 students. In person tutors are needed at all of our three Madison area Learning Centers (West side / Sun Prairie / Verona). The Madison Centers have grown dramatically over the last few years. There are two primary reasons for our growth; 1) our system works, Mathnasium students demonstrably improve their math skills, 2) we have outstanding tutors. The majority of our tutors are current UW Madison students. We are interested in hiring tutors that have the flexibility and maturity to simultaneously manage their studies, social activities and a serious part-time job.
