The Kumon Programmes
Our aim is not to teach techniques for passing exams, but to foster life skills that children can apply throughout their lives.
The Kumon Maths Programme is offered in all countries where Kumon operates and helps children develop problem solving skills. While enhancing their calculation skills, students also cultivate their mathematical analysis and logical thinking abilities which will be indispensable to their lives in the future. This leads them to develop the ability to solve various problems that they will face in their adult life.
Kumon's native language programmes are available in Chinese, English, Japanese, Portuguese, Spanish and Thai. Through a wide range of reading experiences, we aim to improve students' reading comprehension skills and nurture an interest in reading, both of which enable them to read widely and confidently.
The foreign language programmes offer students exposure to their target language on a daily basis while allowing them to acquire high-level reading comprehension and listening skills. Through the carefully designed worksheets, students learn not only to write and pronounce the words and sounds of the language, but also develop the ability to accurately comprehend a variety of text while enhancing their listening skills.
