How the Kumon Method Began

The Kumon Program is designed to advance your child’s math and reading skills and love for learning — providing an academic advantage throughout school. The lifelong benefits often go far deeper. Kumon sparks critical thinking, establishes a pattern of success, and builds confidence that can lead to accelerated learning throughout life.

Kumon was created by a dad who wanted the

best for his son.

Over 60 years ago in Japan, a math teacher named Toru

Kumon wanted to give his son, Takeshi, a love for learning. He also wanted to prepare him for high school, college

and beyond.

Short, incremental assignments helped his son

master new concepts.

Takeshi completed these assignments every day, mastering each concept

before learning a new skill. The method was so successful

that by sixth grade, he was solving calculus problems.

As Toru’s son started studying far beyond grade level,

other parents took notice.

Takeshi’s abilities improved, and interest in Toru Kumon’s

unique, step-by-step, self-learning method grew. Today, Kumon has helped over 4 million students in

49 countries.

KUMON CAN GIVE

YOUR CHILD A LIFETIME OF

ADVANTAGES.

Kumon goes far beyond

tutoring.

This structured, self-learning program imparts the critical thinking skills and mindset

to learn new materials independently. It helps your

child develop a more positive attitude about learning.

Your child progresses at his or her own pace.

Regardless of academic level, your child progresses step-by-logical-step at a comfortable speed. Conquering challenge

after challenge builds confidence and puts your child

on the path to achievement.

Kumon delivers results in school

and beyond.

Kumon Students are studying above grade level, which

opens a new world of educational opportunities.
