Why Advance Beyond Your Current Grade Level?


Why Advance Beyond Your Current Grade Level? 

Parents come to Kumon because they want to help and support their child’s academic growth. Educators refer students to Kumon to build their self-confidence while strengthening their academic performance. At Kumon we stress that tutoring is meant to facilitate test preparation while Kumon tailors lesson plans to prepare student’s academic growth well after the testing has been completed.

The value of independent learning comes when children are able to learn on their own using creative thinking and analytical skills. Most often parents ask us at Kumon what happens after their child reaches proficiency at their current grade level?

  There are several benefits to continue with Kumon well beyond the initial goal.

1)    Academic. In the United States, students that continue to study beyond their current grade level have a higher chance at qualifying for advance programs. This can include the option to participate in AP classes during high school. AP classes have added benefits in that students can receive college credit for the class – saving time and money once they are in college.
2) Strong skill sets. At Kumon we don't just pride ourselves on improving their educational learning methods, but also in preparing students with the necessary skills for a successful life after Kumon.
