About Kumon Santa Cruz
Kumon is a different kind of after-school learning program that is designed not only to help children excel in math and reading, but also to help them become better, more capable learners. By emphasizing a 'back to basics' meets 'practice makes perfect' approach, Kumon reading and math programs help students master the fundamental skills that are so important to their future success. As a result, Kumon students enjoy increased academic proficiency while developing the invaluable qualities of self-discipline and confidence.
Founded by Japanese teacher Toru Kumon over 50 years ago, the Kumon Method rests upon the belief that every child possesses untapped abilities and the potential to excel. To this day, this principle remains central to our philosophy. In short, there’s nothing a child can’t do.
Kumon was developed to unlock the potential in every child. That’s our mission, and we’re accomplishing it every day at Kumon Santa Cruz Center.
