aboutus
Math to the Point was founded in October 2022. We are a small math organization whose main goal is to encourage our Houston community and neighboring cities to see mathematics as we do, a fun, interesting and accessible topic.
With that in mind we invite you to explore with us the variety of math activities that we offer. Come join us in one-on-one or group tutorials, math events, and our newly offered selection of in depth workshops.
We collaborate with other non-profit organizations, to share our explorations, and math enthusiasm with their community of outreach programs.
Meet the Team
We are math enthusiasts with math and teaching experience.
We are eager to work with you and your group.
