Kumon Aims to Help Kids Go Back-to-School with Confidence
Back-to-school season may look a little different, but no matter how your children learn this year—whether at home or in a classroom—Kumon is here to help. As students adjust to the new normal of socially distanced learning, parents have rising concerns of what that means for their children’s education. Many of them are turning to learning programs like Kumon for additional help. Kumon is not your typical tutoring service. It supplements what children are learning at school while actively developing their critical thinking skills. Children progress independently through a carefully crafted math and reading curriculum that is individualized for their needs.
No matter what learning looks like this fall, Kumon is committed to ensuring children take on the new school year with confidence.
