About the Center

Introduction

Welcome to the Kumon Math and Reading Center of University Village!

For more than 60 years, Kumon’s after-school academic enrichment program has helped children achieve success worldwide. At our University Village Kumon Center 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.

Our UVillage Kumon 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 not only succeed, but to excel.

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

Thank you for your interest in our Kumon program and our University Village Kumon Center. We look forward to talking with you soon!

Price and Fees

Our specific rates are provided to parents during orientation, and we are significantly less expensive than private tutors and "quick fix" types of tutoring programs in the Seattle area. Our mission at Uvillage Kumon is to bring the Kumon Method of Learning to as many students as possible, and therefore we keep our pricing reasonable.

There is no charge for placement testing, and we do not ask parents to pay a fee to learn the results of the tests. There is a one-time registration fee and a one-time materials fee, which are discussed at orientation. We can generally start students in the program within the same week as the placement tests.

Policies

Basic policies which apply to all enrolled families: 


        1. Classes are held on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays from 2:30 PM - 7:00 PM. Students are encouraged to attend class twice a week, if possible.


        2. Whether you are an athlete, musician, or a Kumon Math and Reading student, daily practice is essential for success. Homework is assigned on each student's "just right" level, and should be completed daily. 


        3. Successful progress in Kumon requires parents' active supervision of daily work. Setting the right study environment, providing positive encouragement, and regularly observing the student will maximize parent's return on investment.
