In the 1990s, education industry pioneers Peter Markovitz and David Ulendorff recognized that, to truly be successful in school and in life, students need a solid understanding of mathematics. There was a vast disconnect, though, between students’ learning skills and the math curriculum they were taught in school. To address the gap, they founded Mathnasium. After an exhaustive search, they found the perfect person to help them achieve their vision: Larry Martinek, a beloved educator, teacher trainer and curriculum consultant. Larry and Mathnasium’s expert team spend years refining the most powerful teaching methods and materials into the comprehensive, industry-leading Mathnasium Method.
