Mathnasium Expands Globally with 51 New Franchise Deals Amid Rising Demand for STEM Education
Mathnasium Learning Centers signs 51 new franchise agreements and opens 42 new locations globally, highlighting the growing demand for supplemental math education in response to learning loss and the importance of STEM skills.
Mathnasium Learning Centers, a leading math-only supplemental education franchise, has reported significant growth in the first half of 2025, signing 51 new franchise agreements and opening 42 new centers worldwide. This expansion includes the opening of Mathnasium's 100th international center in Hammersmith, United Kingdom, and its first center in Romania, extending its global presence to 12 countries.
The surge in growth is attributed to increasing awareness of the importance of math skills in STEM careers and the need to address learning loss. Kevin Shen, Chief Development Officer, emphasized the brand's focused and proven model as a key factor in its success, noting that supplemental math education remains highly sought after by parents aiming to secure their children's academic future.
Mathnasium's commitment to delivering a high-quality learning experience is reflected in its Net Promoter Score (NPS) above 80, indicating strong customer satisfaction and measurable academic progress. CEO Tyler Sgro highlighted the combination of academic results and a supportive learning environment as driving factors behind the brand's growth and popularity among families.
Notable achievements in 2025 include ranking No. 97 on Entrepreneur’s Franchise 500® list, enhancing its technology platform with new intelligent assistant tools, and maintaining strong development momentum in key U.S. markets. With plans to open new centers in Romania, Saudi Arabia, Australia, Mexico, and the UK by the end of 2025, Mathnasium is poised for continued expansion.
The brand's growth underscores the urgent need for personalized math education, especially as national math performance remains below pre-pandemic levels. Mathnasium offers franchisees an affordable entry point with comprehensive training and support, positioning itself as a resilient and performance-driven franchise opportunity in the supplemental education sector.
