Math, homework, and study skills

For the student who is lost in math, or spends all night on homework for very little.

We find the gaps from earlier grades, so new lessons finally make sense.

Does this sound like your child?

  • "I just don't understand. I'm just lost."
  • Behind in math, and each new unit makes it worse.
  • Rushes through problems and loses points to careless mistakes.
  • Hours of homework every night, and the grades don't match the effort.
  • Gets it at the kitchen table, then freezes on the test.

Who we work with every day

Students who fell behind in math and never caught up. Students starting a new school or a new kind of math. High schoolers stuck in algebra or geometry. Students who study for hours and still get a C. And advanced students who need more of a challenge. Since 1989, this is what we do all day.

How it starts

  1. Step 1: Book a free call

    Tell us what's going on at home and at school, and what you've already tried. In about 20 minutes, we'll learn as much as we can about your child and tell you honestly if we're a fit.

  2. Step 2: Visit the academy

    Your child has a first session with one of our teachers. Then we sit down with you, share what we saw, and recommend the plan that fits your child best.

  3. Step 3: See it working

    Your child gets started with clear goals made for them, and we keep you updated along the way.

What parents have seen

She even scored 100% on her last chapter test! Mr. Smith is a wonderful tutor, patient, easygoing, gives gentle yet firm direction and really helped my daughter find her a love of math and success again.

I just wanted to take a moment and give a HUGE thank you on behalf of my 8th grader, from the bottom of our hearts. Mr. Smith started tutoring my daughter in Algebra and in only 10 2-hour sessions (5 weeks), her grade went from a 56% to a 79.4% final grade in the class - almost a B! - more than I could have dreamed! She even scored 100% on her last chapter test! Mr. Smith is a wonderful tutor, patient, easygoing, gives gentle yet firm direction and really helped my daughter find her a love of math and success again. He's worth every penny and then some!

Since Nico started attending Armenta Learning Academy and especially after increasing to 3 days per week with Ms. DeSilva, his math grades have gone up and he is consistently getting his homework done. His self-esteem has improved as well! He looks forward to coming to Armenta Learning Academy in the afternoon’s.
