The Six Core Elements of Kumon Math.Reading. Success.
Rock-Solid Foundation
You’ve heard about the importance of a strong foundation. Taking pains not just to establish it, but to maintain it every step of the way, is something Kumon has down to a science. From a comfortable starting point established by the Kumon Placement test, your child builds up layer upon secure layer. Just-Right Pace Your child’s advancement with Kumon is never rushed or delayed but happens comfortably and confidently precisely when they are ready to move forward. Progress is driven only by ability and initiative because your child’s study plan is completely individualized to their strengths and needs. Your child is never constrained by school grade level or someone else’s expectations. Small Steps Forward The Kumon curriculum is constructed in small, self-explanatory steps to provide all the support needed whenever it’s needed. That way, your child is able to work through all the material by doing instead of being taught how. Kumon does not aim to mirror your child’s school curriculum, but will help your child do better throughout school, in all subjects. Ironclad Mastery With Kumon, your child must get everything right within a given period of time. It’s not about forcing your child to work faster. It’s about applying concepts until they become second nature, so they can work without struggle or hesitation. Our experience with millions of students tells us just how fast a child needs to get the answers to demonstrate that they have full mastery of the subject. Self-Motivated Success Nothing is more rewarding than succeeding on your own. That’s the whole idea behind Kumon. Your child is inspired to seek out the next challenge because they have conquered the last one. With each victory, your child builds confidence and self-reliance. We have found time and again that the more successful a child is, the further they’re inclined – and able– to go. Daily Practice Kumon requires doing something every day. It is how your child keeps their mind active, focused and disciplined. Just 30 minutes (or so) a day goes a long way towards building stamina and fostering study habits that make your child more productive – and not just with Kumon. It does not happen overnight, but with disciplined, daily practice, it really does happen.
