About Your Instructor
JAMES KIM
Hello! My name is James Kim and I am the Head Instructor at the Kumon Math and Reading Center of Dale City – Potomac Mills.
I was born and raised in New England for most of my life and consider Boston to be my hometown. I obtained my B.A. in Child Development at Tufts University and also completed a program at Boston College for my M.A. in School Counseling. Starting from a young age, teaching and guiding students has been a passion of mine and I have found that being a Kumon Instructor has incorporated all of my previous education and experiences into one position. I have been enjoying it immensely!
I opened this Kumon center in September of 2012 prior to meeting my wife. I am now very happily married with three lovely daughters! I have already begun making Kumon a daily routine with my 4 year old and look forward to many years of helping each of my daughters maximize her learning potential and independent skills through consistent exercise and repetition.
I treat each student that comes through my doors as if he/she was my own and do my best to be a positive influence on everyone I meet through Kumon, which certainly includes the parents/guardians and my employees.
I firmly believe that Kumon is about nurturing a lifestyle of diligence, consistency, integrity, and confidence, which leads to major successes for students throughout the course of their academic career and beyond. Make Kumon a lifestyle choice for your family and see how amazing it can be! Patience is the key here, but patience makes room for long-lasting, positive impact.
I look forward to meeting you and your growing learner!
Blessings,
Mr. James Kim
