About the Center

Introduction

Welcome to the Kumon Math and Reading Center of Bloomfield Center. Located in the heart of Bloomfield Center, we are here to help your child build a strong academic foundation to propel them on to success both inside and outside of the classroom. The Kumon Math and Reading Center of Bloomfield Center seeks to empower a generation of change makers who will use their expanded capacity to improve their local community and beyond.

Through committed study of math and reading by way of the Kumon method, students are encouraged to work through the challenging moments in the Kumon curriculum to maximize their own potential, preparing them to face and conquer life’s challenges. Over time students develop the necessary work skills, stamina and time management ability to help them enjoy learning for years to come.

For more than 60 years, Kumon’s after-school academic enrichment program has helped children achieve success worldwide. We strive to instill in children the desire to achieve and the motivation to learn on their own. Whether your child is seeking enrichment, needs help catching up or is just beginning his or her academic career, Kumon is designed to help him or her develop a love of learning.

Students advance through the program at their own pace. Our emphasis on individualized learning helps your child become focused, motivated and self-reliant. We monitor each child’s progress to ensure comprehension before moving on to a new concept. With a strong academic foundation, critical thinking and problem solving abilities, your child has the potential to achieve whatever he or she desires.

The Kumon Math Program is a comprehensive curriculum that develops the necessary skills to help children progress from counting through calculus. For more information about the Kumon Math Program.

The Kumon Reading Program begins with basic phonics and progresses all the way through advanced reading comprehension. For more information about the Kumon Reading Program.
