My name is Yoshiko Kayamori. I established the Kumon Math, Reading, and Japanese Center of Little Tokyo in April 1986 and Torrance Southwest in 1990. After teaching K-12 in Japanese national supplementary schools and private international schools. Also, the publishing company for school teacher's textbooks.
I have a passion for helping ALL children achieve early academic success and raise the education system standards. I emphasize enrollment of young students who can build solid basic skills by an elementary school and develop advanced academic skills before middle school.
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 and monitor 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.
