Mission Statement:

Making Awesome Things Happen (M.A.T.H.) is a community based, not for profit, 501(c)(3), volunteer organization, dedicated to developing mathematical proficiency in economically disadvantaged students by sharpening basic fundamental mathematical skills by implementing culturally relevant pedagogy and curriculum. Our overall goal is to help traditionally underrepresented students become proficient and confident in mathematics enough to be successful in academics and life. We also desire to increase the number of minorities in STEM related fields.



​

MATH Services:

M.A.T.H. provides mathematics tutoring, free mathematics summer camps, student-specific interventions to public schools, and professional development for pre- and in-service teachers.

 

Services Offered:

 

One-on-One Tutoring: MATH provides low-cost one-one-one tutoring to youth in grades K-12. One-on-one tutoring allows the opportunity for learning to take place on an individual need basis.

 

Summer MATH Camp: MATH hosts free two-week summer MATH camps each summer for students in grades K-12 that receive free or reduced lunch.  The camps provide a fun atmosphere for children to intentionally learn and share mathematics.

​

School Interventions: MATH provides culturally relevant mathematics interventions to interested schools.  The interventions are designed based on the needs of the students.

​

Professional Development: MATH provides training for teachers on research based instructional strategies that help improve mathematical proficiency among traditionally underrepresented students. Training includes the knowledge and support necessary to enact best practices.
