KUMON METHOD


Why Kumon?
Because It Works…

At the heart of the Kumon learning system is a curriculum of more than twenty clearly defined skill levels and hundreds of short assignments spanning material from preschool all the way up to college. With each assignment, your child advances in small, manageable increments.

The Kumon Program unlocks the potential of your child so they can achieve more on their own. It allows students of all ages and abilities to build the skills necessary to have a richer, more successful education experience. It is also a place where your children will be motivated to achieve more by gaining a sense of accomplishment that fosters a desire to learn more.

Whatever your children’s current level, we will design individualized math and reading programs that allow them to advance at their own pace. With our emphasis on individualized learning, your children will become independent, self-reliant and motivated to learn on their own.

Lasting benefits for your children:

  • A desire and motivation to learn on their own
  • A continual sense of accomplishment that raises confidence and self-esteem
  • A positive attitude toward learning
  • Richer participation in school
  • Improved concentration and study habits
  • A mastery of math and reading concepts
  • A drive to perform at their highest potential
  • A love of learning that extends beyond the classroom

Discover the great benefits that Kumon has to offer and see how our program gives your children the confidence to achieve more than they ever thought possible.

1. Success from the start…
Students begin at a comfortable starting point, determined by our placement test, with work that can be easily completed. This way your child will master the basics and gain complete proficiency with each successive step. Kumon students develop better concentration and study habits because they don’t get frustrated by our learning process.

2. Advancing step by step…
Kumon uses neither a classroom nor a tutoring model, but rather a guided “self-motivated-learning” approach. Worksheets assigned by the Instructor provide an example illustrating the concept to be learned. Then a simple exercise modeled after the example is given. Each new assignment is slightly more challenging than the last. The progression is so gradual that students are able to acquire the skills to advance independently.

3. Speed + Accuracy = Mastery
Before your child can advance from one assignment to the next, the material should be completed with a perfect score within a prescribed period of time. All work is graded and the results recorded to determine when your child has a total command of the material and is ready to move on.

4. Practice Makes Perfect
Worksheets are assigned daily, even though most children attend the center just twice a week. An assignment that takes too long or is completed with too many errors is repeated until mastered. That’s how the Kumon Method ensures optimal comprehension and retention of concepts, establishing the strongest possible foundation for more advanced material.

5. Realizing each child’s potential
The Kumon Method allows your child to advance steadily at a comfortable pace dictated only by his or her ability and initiative. Your child’s individualized program is never compromised by the needs of a group or a prescribed teaching agenda. The first priority of the Kumon Instructor is to enable each and every child to perform and progress to his or her full potential-including advanced study whenever possible.
