About the Center

Introduction

Welcome to the Kumon Math and Reading Center of Leander.

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, click here.

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, click here.

Policies

Here's how the logistics work at the Kumon of Leander: students come into class two days a week. At our Center, we are open for class Monday - Thursday. Each student attends approximatley 30 minutes for 1 subject. There's also homework the other 5 days per week. The homework goal is about 20-30 minutes per night per subject.

It is important to note that Kumon is a long term program. Our goal is to fill in any learning gaps and help students form that firm foundation. There is no minimum period of enrollment; however, we ask that you give a 6 month commitment for students to feel the benefits of the effect it has on your child’s study skills, learning confidence and success.

In order to discontinue Kumon of Leander, a written 30 days advance notice is required as well as a meeting with the instructor. If after reading this you'd like to learn more, you'd set up a Placement test for your child, at which I'd go over the program information with you.
