Best for kids who need structured daily practice in math and reading. Not ideal for drop-in homework help or test prep.
Your first visit includes a free placement assessment (about 30 minutes) to determine your child's starting level. Sessions are 30 minutes, twice a week at the center. Students also complete daily worksheets at home (about 20 minutes). Expect a parent orientation in the first week. Progress reports are shared every 3 months, and the instructor adjusts the curriculum based on your child's pace.
This place might be right for you if:
Unlike Mathnasium (instructor-led, conceptual approach), Kumon uses self-paced worksheets that students complete independently. Unlike private tutors, Kumon follows a fixed, incremental curriculum — your child progresses through levels, not school assignments. It's typically cheaper than both alternatives but requires a daily home practice commitment. Most families see measurable grade-level improvement within 3-6 months. Average enrollment is 2+ years.
"I cannot say enough good things about Ms Kumar and Kumon,Sheppard. Both my kids (8yr old and 12 yrs old) started with Ms Kumar 4 years back. The growth I have seen in my kids in how they approach Math is tremendous."
"Been with Kumon close to 5 years for my kid and It’s mostly because of Mrs Kumar and Ms V… we are absolutely happy and blessed to have such wonderful teachers for my kid where we will be confident his foundations will be rock solid. Kumon curriculum wise it is excellent and with Mrs Kumar and Ms V make it more exceptional."
"We love Kumon! I started my son when he was 4 3/4 two days a week for reading. He has excelled and is becoming more confident."
