I am almost always\nfirst to raise my hand to answer math questions in school. Kumon has helped me\nget well ahead in math. My teacher often asks me to lead in helping others with\ntheir math homework,\u201d said Conner. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe Kumon Method has given me the independence to complete my math work on my own.&nbsp; In the beginning, I would always run to my dad to ask for help on solving problems. Now, I can try any problem on my own.&nbsp; Kumon has helped me advance at my own pace. I am not only learning what is in school, but I am also learning three years ahead of my peers, which is exciting.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kumon.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Conner-1-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-8793\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kumon.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Conner-1-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.kumon.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Conner-1-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.kumon.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Conner-1-768x765.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.kumon.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Conner-1-640x637.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.kumon.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Conner-1.jpg 1944w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Conner\u2019s confidence and success in school have opened many doors for various opportunities.
