Mathnasium marks addition of 40 new learning centers in 2026

In an era where quality K-12 math education is increasingly challenging to find, one franchise brand is multiplying student outcomes in ways that add up to big success.

Mathnasium Learning Centers, a global provider of personalized math instruction services, today announced it has signed more than 60 franchise agreements and opened 40 new learning centers during the first half of 2026. The math enrichment brand now operates more than 1,300 locations across 12 countries.

Since the COVID-19 pandemic, math achievement levels have stagnated for many learners across the U.S. and globe. Mathnasium’s continued growth illustrates parents’ commitment to ensuring their children’s success in school and life as well as the success the brand has had both providing instructional services and building a great experience for the entire family.

“Families are making a deliberate investment in their children’s education, even as they carefully weigh every household expense,” said Tyler Sgro, CEO of Mathnasium. “That tells us that supplemental learning is no longer viewed as an extra, but rather an essential part of how many families help their children build confidence, close learning gaps and prepare for future success. As the education landscape becomes increasingly crowded and complex, we see an opportunity to strengthen what has always set Mathnasium apart: personalized instruction powered by meaningful human interaction.

Our focus is on using new tools and resources to amplify that proven approach and bring it to more communities.”

Mathnasium was founded in 2002 by a dedicated team of educators who originally sought to improve math literacy in the Los Angeles area. The brand began franchising in 2003 and made Entrepreneur Magazine’s list of top 500 franchises for the first of 18 times in 2004.

Mathnasium’s successful expansion has enabled the brand to invest in enhancing curriculum and digital tools that both engage learners better and create better visibility for parents, including its proprietary app. Those investments build a better learning experience while also setting franchisees up for success.

As the brand continues to grow, Mathnasium is actively seeking to connect with qualified franchise operators in the Northeastern U.S. and Midwest. State-wide markets including Connecticut, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Massachusetts, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania are currently available, as are territories surrounding the Midwestern cities of Chicago, St. Louis, Cincinatti, Cleveland, Minneapolis, and Kansas City.
