Alan Greenspan on Education in the U.S.
"we don't recognize how significant our education system problems are. we are going to phase out of our labor force a highly educated very skilled, highly productive part of our labor force and it's going to be replaced essentially by those kids who have been chancing so poorly in international education comparisons." - Alan Greenspan, Former Federal Reserve chairman today on CNBC.

Mathnasium of Brooklyn Heights
This is what's next for me. On May 1st, I will be opening a Mathnasium Math Learning Center in Brooklyn, NY.
U.S. kids are falling further behind the rest of the world everyday.
In 2000, American students finished 20th out of the top industrialized nations in math. In 2003, they dropped to 24th....in 2006 they slipped to 26th and in 2009 they dropped to 31st (PISA Reports).
The Wall Street Journal called this an "economic timebomb."
It is my belief that parents must take their children's education into their own hands. Public education has failed us. This is now a national epidemic that will take years to remedy with the help of learning centers like Mathnasium that recognize the need and have a proven record of getting American kids back on track.
I'm thrilled to be a part of this effort.
