About the Instructor

Introduction

As an extensively trained and certified professional instructor, I serve as a mentor who guides your children through their work while also providing direction, support and encouragement. I create an at-home study plan in addition to monitoring classroom assignments, and I emphasize the importance of accurately completing each assignment within a designated time frame. This has helped many of my students increase self-confidence, thus becoming more self-reliant. Like all Kumon Instructors, I have a true passion for education and an earnest desire to help children succeed.

Biography and Background

Gary 1

I first learned about the Kumon Method some thirty years ago, but my personal journey with Kumon really began when I enrolled my daughter in the program. Seeing the vast improvement in her abilities inspired me to learn more about this program and eventually led to my becoming a Kumon Certified Instructor myself. 

In addition to holding a Bachelor of Applied Science degree in Industrial Engineering from the University of Toronto, I also hold a Master of Business Administration degree from York University. I am fluent in spoken and written English and Chinese (Cantonese and Putonghua) and am married with two young children.

It is my aspiration to help other parents and their children to realize the benefits of the Kumon program and to achieve their individual goals.
