MathWiz was founded on the passion and desire to build an engaging and effective digital learning mathematics resource for high school students and teachers.
Our mission is to empower students with an experience that enables them to take direction of their own learning. Our main goals are to promote the advancement of knowledge and skills for greater success and to foster greater confidence and self-esteem while enjoying the learning of math. As well, we aim to provide teachers with the necessary tools to facilitate this process.
MathWiz has been developed by certified math teachers, administrators and curriculum writers with over 200 years of accumulative professional experience. Our experts are dedicated in making math more relevant for today's digital learning environment with engaging animated lessons, Learning Tools for the student and Teaching and Class Management Tools for the teacher.
We are based in Ontario, Canada. Our library of resources is designed as courses which are aligned with the most recent Ontario Ministry of Education Mathematics Curriculum Guidelines. The resource is used by students in the Grade 9 and 10 Academic Level math courses and to some extent by students in the Grades 9 and 10 Applied Level courses or the Grade 11 courses for some of topics. In the development pipeline is a course to help Grade 8 students prepare for high school math and new content for some other courses.
The Try MathWiz link on our homepage allows students and teachers to view sample video lessons, Study Guides and Practice problems in our Classroom environment and login page.
A subscription is required for 24/7 Full Access to the lessons and all other tools and resources.
