Kumon Barrie Bayfield Mall

The Kumon Method began with a parent's love. Determined to help his 8-year-old son, a math teacher named Toru Kumon developed the materials and guiding principles that grew into the largest after-school math and reading program in the world. Today, in 49 countries and regions on 6 continents, the Kumon Method is helping millions of children succeed in the classroom and in life. It can help your child, too - beyond anything you might have thought possible. Kumon is unlike any academic program you're likely to have experienced. At a Kumon Centre, you'll find no blackboards. No lectures. Instead of passively receiving instruction from teachers or tutors, Kumon Students actively develop self-learning skills. Here's how: *Each student progresses at his or her own pace through an individualized worksheet lesson plan established by his or her Instructor. *Students do daily assignments that take about 30 minutes or less per subject, in one, two or three sessions a week at the Kumon Centre, and the other days at home. *The worksheets provide examples of how to solve each problem, enabling students to figure out new concepts on their own. *Each worksheet teaches a lesson that\s one small step more advanced than the lesson before, so students progress smoothly and gain confidence with each new success. Step by logical step, students steadily build a solid grasp of math and reading, and become more confident and motivated with each worksheet they solve. With each success, your child gains knowledge, confidence, motivation! Successfully completing a worksheet brings a sense of achievement that empowers your child to take on the next one. Your child will welcome each new challenge, grow increasingly confident in his or her ability to work accurately and efficiently - even under time constraints - and be motivated to achieve at even higher levels.
