– Kumon, the world’s largest after-school math and reading franchise, has been ranked sixth on Entrepreneur Magazine’s annual Top Global Franchises list. That’s nine spots up from 2016.
To compile the ranking, Entrepreneur took each company’s 2017 Franchise 500 score, then adjusted it to give extra weight to international size and growth.
“These results translated into a self-esteem boost that I didn’t anticipate,” Ms. Goldman said.
Teachers are recommending students who can benefit from Kumon’s instruction and, with parent involvement, are making the enrichment center an official partner in the learning process.
“The idea is not for Kumon students to be ‘tutored’ per se but to ‘self-propel’ through the material,” says center director Naomi Sazuki…
Even if your child prefers roving work stations to a dedicated desk, identify appropriate study spots and make sure she has all necessary supplies. “Try to pick the quietest areas in your home that will have as few distractions as possible,” advises Rima Muth from the national math and reading enrichment program Kumon.
