About the Center

Introduction

Opened in 1998, the Kumon Math and Reading Center of Washington-Shelby has been proudly educating students in the North Macomb area!  Our 3000 square foot facility provides a child-friendly learning environment for students to come explore their potential and discover their love for learning.   

Kumon of Washington-Shelby is located at 52015 Van Dyke in Shelby Township, between 23 & 24 Mile Roads, on the west side of Van Dyke, north of the Marathon gas station

Additionally, Mrs. Penn also opened a second learning center, Kumon of Macomb in 2004 to meet the growing demand and provide convenient access to families in the North Macomb area. 

Kumon of Macomb is located at 46801 Garfield Road in Macomb Township, south of 21 Mile Road on the west side of Garfield in Warwick Office Center.

Our mission is to foster self-confidence and independent learning for all of our students.  We are sure that the self-confidence and learning skills gained with Kumon will translate into academic successes in school as well, as many of our students have been named to the North American Kumon Advanced Study Honor Roll for studying a year or more ahead of their grade level.  

The majority of the Kumon Center of Washington - Shelby students are elementary and middle school students, but we also help children as young as 3 ½ to 5 years old develop a love of learning and build essential skills to begin school with confidence. We also do help high school students reinforce their fundamentals and prepare for the math and reading portion of College Admissions Tests. Come into our center to see how we can help your child love, build or further a solid foundation in math and reading! At both Kumon of Macomb and Washington-Shelby Kumon Center we put the FUN in LEARNING!
