[QUOTE="kumarvairab, post: 637, member: 1"] Hello parents, Yesterday, I attended the Kumon Method workshop organized by [I]Kumon Institute of Education Japan[/I], at my daughter's school (in Kathmandu). It was 30-mins keynote session. At first, I was unsure whether to attend, but when I re-read the invitation, a few keywords caught my attention; [I]they say[/I], [LIST] [*]Strengthening Math Skills; and [*]Self learning. [/LIST] Which is important, since I always wanted my kid to have strong abilities in science and maths subjects. Especially maths, because later if my kid pursues an engineering or medical doctor career, the math skills will be an advantage for a lifetime. That's why, Before I move on, I want to highlight key takeaways from this session; [LIST=1] [*][B]The Kumon Method trains children to calculate quickly and accurately using structured templates. [/B] My POV: It has an assessment toolkit in the backend and tracks activities: time to solve, how many times the answer is erased and re-tried. It is all digital, touchpad, and recorded. [*][B]Children learn to think for themselves and progress confidently, independently (requiring low supervision). [/B] My POV: Of course time saver for parents like me, who's compelled to be part of their daily homework. [*][B]One of the short videos showed that a student was solving complex maths questions faster and more accurately. It was quite evident.[/B] My POV: Over time, that clarity creates confidence [/LIST] After attending a short KUMON workshop, I strongly felt that the strong base in math skills will go far beyond into science and problem-solving, too. I think it’s structured learning, it’s disciplined and effective - my final thoughts. As a parent, that assurance matters. 🙏 [/QUOTE]
