About the Center

Introduction

Welcome to our Kumon Math and Reading Center of Agoura! 


We are conveniently located at VONS supermarket shopping plaza in Agoura Hills, next to Cronies Grill restaurant, facing Thousand Oaks Blvd. 


Kumon’s after-school academic enrichment program has helped children achieve success worldwide since 1958. The Kumon Math and Reading Center of Agoura has served the local communities for over 30 years. 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. 


First, check out this video to learn more about What Makes Kumon Different. This will give you a brief introduction before we dive into the details of what exactly Kumon is and why it’s different from tutoring or any other academic program. 


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 achieve whatever he or she desires.
