Kumon

Our kid has been coming to Kumon for over a year. We have seen his improvement in reading and math. We had reading for 6 months and then added math. For me, the most important thing is that, he enjoys it and he does the exercises on his own. I do sit with him while doing the exercises to make sure that he reads some of the most difficult words correctly. On the math side, he is self sufficient, but I also sit with him to encourage him. While the math may seem too simple, I have seen first hand his ability to add numbers quickly and gain confidence. A good foundation is the key for future success.

I've been at this center for 2 years now and I recommend it to all of my mommy friends. The instructors there take great effort to understand the specific learning habits of each of the children their, no matter the age. I noticed that the parents and children who are open to cooperating with the center end up seeing great progress in the student's learning. My daughter was a little nervous at first, but she quickly became comfortable with the kumon system and especially how close she became with the instructors!

Mrs. K is a great teacher! She patiently worked with both my kids in the math program for a total of 9 years now. She is able to explain concepts to my kids in a way that is easy for them to understand. Math was their least favorite subject, but now they both love it and are exceling at school. I highly recommend this program.

We have been sending our son here for over 2 yrs and we love it. Ms. Vanita is not only deeply passionate and knowledgeable but she loves her students and their families. I went to Kumon growing up as a kid not this one and I don’t remember having fond memories of it, but I knew their methods worked! With Ms Vanita, she makes Kumon fun and enjoyable as much fun as math/reading tutoring can be for a 6 yr old and rewards the kids with prizes and praise for their accomplishments. However, what I love is that the expectations are set early on and if the kids are goofing around then the staff will certainly make sure the kids are corrected. Kumon is as much about teaching the kids self-discipline as it is about teaching the enrichment material. This Falls Church location is not even the closest one to our house but it just wouldn’t feel right to go to any other one. I have told all of our friends with kids about Ms. Vanita and I hope to be part of this Kumon family for many years to come!
