Just 30 minutes a day can build a lifetime of advantage

Daily Kumon math practice takes about 30 minutes to complete. Students attend class our Kumon Centre and complete worksheets at home the other days. Every child works at their own pace and masters each new math concept before moving forward. You will watch your child’s math skills advance and see their confidence grow.

AGES 3-5
Give your preschooler a head start.

In the Kumon Reading Program, preschoolers start with “look, listen and repeat” exercises using colorful illustrations to connect words to familiar objects, before advancing to phonics and letter writing. Through practice, children develop a foundation of vocabulary, memory and phonemic awareness that will help them begin reading.

A love of reading can change a child’s life.

Building strong reading comprehension will prepare your child to advance through elementary school with confidence and an appreciation for learning.
