Mathworks Tutoring Programs
SAT & ACT Prep / FCAT Prep / Homeschool Math Courses
and Summer Math Camps
Now Available in Naples, Florida
Does your child need help in math (from basic elementary skills through college level calculus)? Are you preparing for the military's ASVAB test or the new SATs? Are you the parent of a home school student who needs a full-year math course?
If you answered "yes" to any of the above, MATHWORKS (a math tutoring program based in Naples, Florida) can help. Mathworks follows our previously successful (and ongoing) efforts at explaining "how the weather works" and in teaching earth science, physical science and geography. In addition to tailored one-hour personalized tutoring sessions (at our Center or at your child's school), we are also offering small group tutoring sessions, FCAT preparation classes and math SAT, ACT and ASVAB preparation classes. Starting in September 2007, we began offering full year courses in Algebra I, Geometry and Algebra II for home school students.

Our Math Tutoring Center is located across from Gulf Coast High and Laurel Oak Elementary Schools. The site is conveniently located on Immokalee Road about 2 miles east of I-75 (directly behind Dunkin' Doughnuts).
Here are just a few of our recent success stories:
All of these students and many others reported that they were far more confident in their math abilities following tutoring.

SAT and ACT tutoring sessions will again be offered during the 2008-2009 school year. These 4-week intensive programs (with an additional one-hour small group session) key solely on helping your child prepare for the math portion of the SAT and the math and science reasoning portions of the ACT. If your child only needs help in math, then this focused program is for you! NOTE: Working with Liberty Tutoring, we also offer focused SAT / ACT tutoring sessions in language arts.

We are again offering "math camp" this summer. These one week, small group, programs (9:00am - 11:30am or 1:00pm - 3:30pm each day) feature limited enrollments with students grouped by grade level (through grade 8) or math subject (high school). They are designed to help prepare your child for the math they will be learning when they return to school in August, review material from the previous school year and/or prepare them for make-up or scheduled FCAT testing.
There has also been interest in holding math refresher classes for parents. These would be designed to help parents understand better what their students are learning, explain FCATs, and otherwise help parents improve their own math skills. If you are interested (either one night a week during the school year or as part of a parent "camp" next summer), please let us know.
Thank you for your interest in our services.

About MATHWORKS - "Fostering Math Understanding and Success One Student at a Time" SM
Our focus is always on ensuring that students master basic and advanced skills, not only that they are able to take classroom tests, the FCAT, and/or SAT and ACT exams. Passing these tests is obviously important; but we also recognize the value in really understanding and enjoying math. We call this "math ownership."
Our goal is to have students see the connection between math and their everyday activities, start to look forward to solving math problems (not avoid or fear them) and use math at every opportunity. We are confident that this approach will enable your child to master math more easily and perform even better on their tests than they would just by drill and practice. We work hard to foster this real-life mind set with the students we tutor.
Since math itself is a language (a universal one, in fact), learning its many facets does take interest and effort. We always work with parents and their child to ensure that the tutee works hard in math and reaps its many rewards. When all participants (child, parents and tutor) collaborate, success is much more likely.
