The process was rather informal; the owners mostly want to know that you've had experience working with children and have the patience to help those that are struggling with math in school. And, they obviously hope that you have operable math skills, so they give you an assessment before considering you for hire.

Question 1
What experience do you have working with children?
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Mathnasium (Toronto, ON) in Dec 2022
Interview
Interviewer focused on my experience working with children. For the technical mathematical knowledge, there will be a math test for that, and not during the interview. Because you will be working with children, it is important for you to know how to and/or have experience working with children.

Question 1
We have a lot of kids whose families bring them here to learn math but they don't really wanna be here. What are the steps you can take to get them involved in the material?
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Mathnasium in June 2022
Interview
Interview process includes a mathematics test that ideally the employee achieves a score of 85% or higher, as well as a short verbal interview on educational success and performance in mathematics courses ranging from pre-algebra to pre-calculus.
The interview process included both an interview to review company policies and expectations and then a comprehensive (approx. 2 hours) math test to make sure you are qualified to teach the material.
