Aiden's Story

Aiden

My name is Aiden. I’m 11 years old and in 6th grade. My hobbies include swimming, tennis, drawing and video games. I like to swim because you get to go to competitive swim meets and every meet is an opportunity to improve your strokes and time. Also, I like to play video games with my friends. I like to play on-line because in COVID times we are not able to play in person or go to each other's homes, and everyone needs time to interact or even just talk and socialize. I like drawing because you don’t have specific rules about what to do and you can just be creative. 


One of my academic achievements is getting into 6th grade honors math. Also I have earned all A’s in my last semester, which is an achievement that makes me very proud. Kumon has helped me is with reading comprehension. I am able to better comprehend school work instructions and read books above my grade level. Also, It has helped me in school by learning higher grade math which made the math I was learning in school seem easy. 


My future goals are to improve in swimming, tennis and to always do my best in school. I still don’t know what career I want because I am still pretty young. And lastly, to fellow students, Kumon might be hard but you have to persevere through the tough times and never give up even if you really want to.

Kumon Center of Bernardsville is a great learning center. My son has been going for over a year and I have seen steady improvement in Math and Reading. I am very happy with how he is progressing and recently enrolled my 4 year old. Mrs Sweety is very helpful and encouraging and she and her staff did an amazing job with virtual sessions during quarantine.

Renata's Success Story

Very impressed with Ms. Sweety and this Kumon center! I have a 6 year old daughter that started Kumon when she was 3.5 years old. She is entering 1st grade, yet her reading and comprehension level is far beyond. I owe so much of this to her Kumon studies. 


Thanks to the center and all their staff! A special shout out for adding the online version the past six months with COVID-19. It allowed our daughter to continue to focus normally on her Math and Reading work-- when everything else in our world was ever changing. 


We are signing up daughter #2 in April 2021, when she turns 3.5 as well!

Bianca and Kathleen's Kumon journey

Both of my daughters have been attending Kumon for a few years now. My youngest daughter was falling farther and farther behind in school, especially with math. We tried tutors, but needed something consistent with a curriculum to catch her up. She is now at the point that she is working ahead of what she is learning in school. My oldest daughter was already strong in math, but looking to advance and get ahead. Kumon has helped her do exactly that! I would highly recommend Kumon to anyone in need of additional help or looking to get ahead and sharpen skills! Mrs. Sweety is extremely accommodating and was always able to work around our chaotic schedules.

Ms. Sweety is an amazing instructor. She always strives to give her best to ensure that her students are learning and progressing well. I would highly recommend this center. Even in these difficult times, I am amazed at the service that she has provided. If there were more stars, I would have given those for all her hard work. Way to go!!

Carmen's Story

After just two months of constant Kumon with you, Carmen has come a long way! In January Carmen was awarded the spelling and writing prize in her class! This mean so much to both Carmen and myself who are now seeing the benefits of Kumon.
Thanks for your support thus far.
Warmly,

Matthew's Story

In this season of giving, I wanted to tell you I think you have given Matthew one of life's greatest gifts. Teaching Matthew to read and write has given Matthew so much joy!  He loves books and loves to write his own little stories.

He is also enjoying Math as well.  His Teacher at school says he is doing very well and says he has a lot of confidence.

Thank you so much for all you do. You have inspired him to do his best.  I can't wait until my younger son is old enough to start Kumon.
Regards,
Janet 


Katelyn's Story

Dear Ms.Sweety,

Thank you for your professionalism and your attention to detail in analyzing the needs of my daughter. Katelyn and I both appreciate that you tailor the homework to best meet her needs so that she does not become overwhelmed. In fact, I was shocked when the three of us recently met for her conference and she asked for more challenging work!. Now that she has mastered long division,she feels she can master anything!

Sincerely,
Kathleen


Cecilia's Story

Dear Ms. Sweety,

It was nice to meet you today to discuss Cecilia's progress. As you know, Cecilia had quite a rough time for almost two years of school. When we enrolled her in Kumon her confidence was sagging and she was obviously behind grade level. Cecilia is now thriving and just received her first report card of sixth grade. She did very well in all subjects but we were most pleased about her B plus in Math! We will stick with Kumon as we know this would not have happened without her Kumon work. Cecilia is feeling more confident and is performing very well in school. Thank you for time and effort.

Sincerely,
Laura


Ashley's Story

Ms. Sweety,

I wanted to write you to let you know some great news. Ashley has been recommended for Honors Math next year. She is very excited and feels very confident in her math skills now. I wanted to thank you for all your efforts and your wonderful program. Without it, I don't think she would have ever achieved this level.

Thank you,
Parents of Ashley


Syna and Syum's Story

Our two kids joined the center over three years ago, and have grown together with the staff and other kids. Ms. Sweety & the staff at the center have been outstanding in providing focus, rigor and personalized attention to each child, while creating a very supportive environment for their learning. We are now moving out of state and joining a new Kumon center but we will fondly remember our years at Bernardsville center.

The Mcnamaras

We are very happy with the Kumon program at Bernardsville with Ms. Sweety. Our two boys are thriving in school because of the math and reading practice we do at Kumon. Our boys learned the academic discipline of a daily routine of math and reading. We also love the mix of work with rewards, Kumon makes it fun.
