Middle school kid - mathnasium also provides the tools and the student can sometimes apply them. There are also times when the student needs to learn several more remedial topics before they can understand what they are currently doing in school. These students tend to have larger gaps than elementary school kids. As Mathnasium is working on the foundation, we also have to put out the fire some days. By "putting out the fire", I mean homework that the student needs assistance with.
High school kid - the gaps are very large at this point. A majority of the session is putting out the fire that day. This leaves little time to work on the foundation.
In summary, everyone can benefit by coming to Mathnasium. The older the child is the more time it will take to get him back into tip top math shape. No matter where you fall in the spectrum, begin your math workout today and start adding math muscle.
