Why Absolute Value?

At Absolute Value, our goal is to encourage each student, regardless of age, to discover the value of becoming an active, lifelong learner. For one student, that might mean working one-on-one with a tutor to get an “A” in a particularly challenging subject. For another, it might mean joining our weekly collaborative group sessions with friends to stay on top of the material being taught in school. And for yet another, it might mean taking a hobby to the next level in a class or workshop like Creative Writing or Digital Design and Illustration, or Coding with Python. Whatever you want to know, we can help you know better!

In mathematics, the distance from zero to any given point is called its “absolute value.” And since distance, just like learning, isn’t measured in negatives, the absolute value of anything is always positive. We named our business after this concept because every step we help you take towards knowledge is a positive step towards increased confidence, better grades, and overall success.
