Kumon experience

Yesterday (May 7, 2011) was our scheduled orientation in Kumon Las Pinas at 10:00am but unfortunately we arrived in the center past 10:00am because we had breakfast at Jollibee first before going to Kumon.

Before telling what happened in the center, let me tell a brief background about Kumon.

The Kumon Method is an individualized learning method. The starting point for each Kumon student is determined individually. Students start at a level where they can attain a perfect score by studying on their own.

The Kumon worksheets have been designed in a way that allow students to figure out how to solve problems on their own. If students continue to study at their own pace, they will catch up with their school grade level and eventually advance far beyond it.

The Kumon Math and Reading Programs equip each child with the skills needed to reach his/her potential. Through daily study of the worksheets, children acquire strong academic abilities and a solid foundation to prepare them for life.

We enrolled Tami in Kumon for her to be able to study on her own. During her nursery grade, i noticed that when she's at home, she's not doing her school works unless you will command her that she can't watch TV if she dont finish her homework, in short tinatamad syang mag-aral but when you ask her yaya and her teacher, she listens well in the school and she's smart enough to know such things. I want her to have self-learning skills and be independent in some ways.

Assisting with teachers.

She took exam first to know what lessons she needed next. This will assess her current ability and it will be the starting point of her learning journey. Hope Tami will not get bored doing school works everyday.

Kumon...

Kumon. Math. Reading. Success.

We decided to enroll our daughter in Kumon to enhance her Reading and Math skills. We've heard a lot of positive feedbacks here and we want to try it. This coming Saturday (May 7, 2011) will be the parent's orientation and hopefully will be the start of Tami's learning experience with Kumon. I just hope that she will listen to her teacher. *cross-finger*.


Why Kumon?

Kumon believes that all children have the ability to reach and perform at their highest potential — that with Kumon, they can succeed both in and out of the classroom. Whatever your children’s current level, we will design individualized math (counting up through calculus) and reading (basic phonics up through advanced comprehension) 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. 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.
