Genie Academy (formerly Math Genie) was founded in 2008 by Mohit Jain and his wife Naina. On a trip back to India, Mohit saw local students doing math using the abacus, an ancient calculating tool. Mohit saw at once what an effective way this was for children to learn math and decided to bring the concept back to the United States. Bringing this concept back, he knew that he would have to modify the program to make it fun and engaging for American Children. He enlisted the help of his wife, Naina, who had a degree in business and accounting and had taken courses in teaching. Together, they wrote Genie Academy's curriculum.
At Genie Academy, the team is trained regularly to ensure that the best teaching techniques are applied in class. Our priority is to continuously develop our teaching skills in order to get the best results.
"Do not train a child to learn by force or harshness; but direct them to it by what amuses their minds, so that you may better discover the peculiar bent of the genius of each.” - Plato
