Math Academy

2024 has been a transformative year for MA and in reflecting back, two things have stood out to me as being particularly moving. First, the unwavering dedication and unequaled talent of our team. Most of them joined us when we were not much more than a program in a small school district in a corner of California. They willingly and enthusiastically climbed on board and adopted Jason’s vision. We have had the privilege of watching them grow into their own, both personally and professionally, into the powerhouses they are today that produce to exceptional standards. There is nothing more rewarding than that. Second, words cannot express how unexpected and grateful we feel for the community of support that has sprung up around MA. In our wildest dreams, we couldn’t have wished for such an astonishing thing to happen. You (and if you are wondering if I am talking to directly to you, I am) have become what I consider friends, even though we have never met and are half a planet away. It is overwhelmingly humbling to be able to participate in personal journeys of recovery through, of all the unlikely things, the fundamentals of math, overcoming odds, history and circumstances, that I have received many stories via email. It is an honor that I have no words to express. My most sincere wishes to you in 2025: health, peace, happiness and yes, automaticity.

@neejkapoor Keep up the great work!

I run an org that helps underserved youth around the United States. And we're paying for a couple of our students to use MA and I'm so impressed with their dedication. This student is moving at a wonderful slow and steady pace of 25Xp per day. It's challenging but she loves it! I echo everything the above testimonial wrote!

MA is not just for gifted kids, we have made an impact on a huge range of students (both age and mastery levels). I'm so pleased to share this email: "I am truly grateful to have discovered your system in March. Since then, my two kids have diligently worked on their courses, spending 15–35 minutes each day. My son, who is 14 and has intellectual challenges (autism), also finished grade 8 at his specialized school. He started in March with 35% knowledge of "grade 4." Initially, using the platform was difficult for him. He often skipped instructions, guessed answers for challenging concepts, and rushed through lessons to finish quickly. As a result, the system responded by assigning him negative XP. This pattern continued for about 3–4 weeks; he would complete easy lessons for positive XP, then rush and guess through harder ones, earning negative XP. At first, he wasn't concerned about these setbacks, but he eventually became motivated to make real progress. Now, he aims for a daily goal of 15 XP and averages about 12 XP per day. He has reached a 95% knowledge level for his course and is very proud of his achievements."

friends and family keep asking why a mathematics graduate (me) would start over from 4th grade math all the way through ap calc... and pay $49/month to do it. here's the short version. it's been 80 days since i joined @mathacademy. i signed up after watching @yacinelearning and @justinskycak talk about their knowledge graph and how the platform works. that conversation made me incredibly curious. a kid in 2026 can work through an unbelievable amount of material. the lessons are structured in a way that's incredibly easy to absorb, and i'm convinced that if i had access to something like this growing up, i would've built a much stronger mathematical foundation and an even greater desire to keep learning. i signed up for two reasons: - address gaps in my understanding, even at the most fundamental level - experience firsthand what learning math in the digital age can look like 80 days in, i'm even more convinced than when i started. i'm extremely bullish on this product and this style of learning.

@brianskellenger You can send me an email at support@mathacademy.com and I'm happy to help.

@_MathAcademy_ I can't sign up because you only enter the password once, and there is no button to see the password No idea if my big fingers entered it correctly, and it's annoying So, it's hard to hand you $500 for the year if the entire site is how we begin Guess I'll never know?

@VinceBoley Hi Vince, many of our students use tablets! You can log in through Safari.

@_MathAcademy_ Does Math Academy have an app for use on an iPad? Or is it just available on a computer?

Incredible! A 3rd grader and a 6th grader both achieving 5's on the AP Calc BC exam! Congrats on the hard work!!

@Frank83074399 I'm not having any issues on my end and I haven't received any other reports. Can you please try again and if you still need help, email me at support@mathacademy.com? Thanks!

Hi @_MathAcademy_ the Math Academy website seems down. Cannot access.

@Steve_McGinnis We're so thrilled for her success! Thank you!

I can’t recommend @_MathAcademy_ enough. We had tried everything from paid tutoring to tutoring through the school with no measurable progress to show for it. Our daughter started Math Academy in March of this year and completed the 4th grade level Mid-May. She was ~50th percentile in the Winter MAPS Assessment and jumped to 87th percentile. And, she’s now 40% through the 5th grade. What I really love though is how it has built / re-built her confidence! @justinskycak @exojason

From the 50th to the 87th percentile in just months. Self-confidence in math is game-changing. Incredible to see this kind of rapid, measurable progress!

From Families to Schools New @_MathAcademy_ podcast episode with @exojason, posted here and everywhere else (see comment) Link in comments, here's what we covered: 2:44 - Onboarding lots of schools recently 6:39 - Different types of customers 9:13 - Why conversations with customers matter 15:05 - Streamlining inevitable school sign-ups 17:10 - Identifying high-leverage tasks 18:35 - Manual school account creation 19:30 - Manual processes make sense in the beginning 22:05 - Learn the workflow before automating 23:28 - The hidden costs of new software features 25:25 - Keeping product scope minimal 27:40 - Anatomy of a typical school onboarding session 37:26 - Intentionally growing without a sales team 40:11 - Schools promote students without requiring mastery 42:20 - Why every school onboarding call is different 43:48 - Building automated school onboarding 51:05 - Validate success at a small scale before scaling up 55:30 - Sustainable growth over rapid expansion 58:41 - Looking ahead: proctored exams

I have been meaning to post about @_MathAcademy_ myself. My son is on track to get through a year of math in ~6 weeks. He pesters me for my laptop so he can complete sections and get points (there's a scoreboard and he's very competitive so he wants to win.) I will write more when I get time.

Update: In less than two months he completed (to mastery) 6th grade math and prealgebra. As a math teacher myself, I can attest that the depth of his math progress is seriously progressing. This would have taken 3 years at his school.

Even a little makes an impact!

A kid I tutor went from the 29th percentile in math to the 65th in one semester, from the bottom third of his grade to above average. And he was never bad at math. -->🧵

Shoutout to Zach Nash, my former student and a current @_MathAcademy_ high schooler who just got a math research paper accepted for publication! Funny enough, at the beginning of the 8th grade school year, Zach told me that he would not be doing any more math than was required to pass the class. But by the end of the year, he had absolutely crushed the AP Calculus BC exam, and in the following two years as a Math Academy high school student he learned enough university-level math to be within striking distance of mathematical research. During the summer after 10th grade he worked hard with his teacher Dylan Rupel, a PhD research mathematician, to obtain a research result which has recently been accepted for publication. He will graduate high school this spring and plans to study math at Yale starting in the fall.

@adriancitak180 @justinskycak @ninja_maths Please try again.

Is @_MathAcademy_ down? 😭 @justinskycak @ninja_maths

@Trapezohedron18 Please try again.

@_MathAcademy_ Is your site experiencing an outage right now?

@newstart Yes, but we have several other courses in the works currently.

Has Math Academy a plan to provide Grade 1-3 Math courses ? @_MathAcademy_

@DrLauraReames Congrats! We're so excited to see this growth in scores, but even more importantly, confidence! Keep up the great work!

Ever since my 7th-grade son started @_MathAcademy_ this past January, I’ve been shouting its praises from the rooftops. Within weeks, his confidence grew and his attitude toward math completely changed. Now we have the data to confirm what I was already seeing at home. After just 5 months in MA, his growth has been remarkable. He went from regressing in traditional public school during 6th grade (44th %ile), to making positive gains at the virtual charter school where I teach (66th %ile), to absolutely knocking it out of the park with MA (99th %ile!). Thank you, Math Academy, for building a program that can change a student’s trajectory. And thank you, @jliemandt and @mackenzieprice for not gatekeeping the secret sauce behind your students’ math success so ALL parents can watch their children succeed!
