Kumon: Preschool through 12th Grade
Kumon is the world’s largest after-school math and reading
academic enrichment program. Our personalized approach helps
children learn math and reading concepts based on their ability
rather than their age or grade. Since the curriculum is
individualized for each child, it allows students to comprehend
the new material fully before moving ahead. With our emphasis
on self-learning, preschool through high school students
become self-reliant and gain confidence to learn new materials
at their own pace.
Curriculum
Each exercise in Kumon’s Curriculum is carefully designed to
encourage independent learning, because new concepts build on
previously mastered ones. From counting to calculus and basic
phonics to advanced reading comprehension, your child will
progress at a pace that’s right for them while they develop a love
of learning.
Kumon’s Materials Development and Instruction Department
studies how students solve the worksheet problems, and the
curriculum is revised periodically to improve the students’
experience in learning new concepts independently.
Success
Our enrichment program enables children to study high school-
level material when they are ready, regardless of age, and
prepares them to achieve success both inside and outside the
classroom. In the United States, more than half of Kumon math
students study material that is above their grade level, and 24
percent of those students are learning materials two to three
years above their grade in school.
Global Impact
More than four million children in 47 countries are gaining
confidence and strong study habits through the Kumon Method
of Learning. Kumon gives students of all ages and abilities the
chance to build the skills necessary for a richer, more successful
educational experience. We believe all children can maximize
their potential by practicing the Kumon Method of Learning.
