They expect you to now the the work with no help and made me re think my life decisions and made me regret all the times I said my normal school was bad in Kumon if you talk you get in trouble but in a normal school you can talk on a regular base and you leave when you are done with it then you can leave henry if you see this please try to let them have a reward when they are done or let them talk so they can make some friends and so you get more customers to make more money and for the good of the kid also in a kid writing this.
As a student at Kumon I can't say first hand that it is not worth it. Not worth your money or your kids time. I am learning at a fourth grade level at Kumon but at ivy math (different tutoring place) I was learning on a middle school level. Overall don't waste your money on Kumon.
Kumon is hell for children they give you to much work and makes you cry it is the worst place ever I don't even know how it is still up it is the worst the people who work there don't even help there's so many kids that hate it actually all the kids
Overall it's just stupid, I'm currently in it right now, and ever since I started it my mental health has been going downhill, it's just so stressful, and their methods are $#*!, I continuously have to juggle kumon and school at the same time, and their packets don't help me at all at school, and its just a big waste of money, so do not enroll in it.
I sent my daughter to the one on kelior road she said that the people there were rude to her and that the employees there got mad at her for every single thing she did wrong and thats not very nice for a child to go through that do better
I would never do this in my life, this place is like hell. I hate one of the teachers name asmita, she's the worst and doesn't help me at all and she's always takes my phone when i don't have it, she takes my phone away but not others when they have it out, it's bull$#*!, the whole place is bull$#*!, this doesn't help me with school, or help me to look stupid, the checkers r not doing their job, it take like 30 min long to check it, so i leave the place
It's ridiculous don't waste your time. They put you at a lower level than what you go in for and don't help at all. I resorted to just cheating on my homework because it was so repetitive. Everytime I got close enough to pass a level they sent me back down to the 20s to restart. Thankfully band got in the way and I couldn't go anymore.
This place scares me. I went there as a kid and when I pass by Kumon, I just see the somwhat unhappy face. If you want to be sad, go to kumon. I would've done a lower rating if I could.
My experience with Kumon has been bad. I enrolled by 7th grader in Kumon. It's a year now that the instructor is repeating him in 2nd grade level work. I have realized that many other parents have similar experience. Kumon us a rip-off scam. They make your child look dumb so that they can keep repeating the child and keep charging you. My advice is to beware of Kumon. It's a scam run by Asians
I go to Kumon in Newnan. The teachers are kind, but there are too many homeworks and schoolworks. I have a lot of homework for school, but I don't have time for them. If I accidentally forget to do my homework, they tell me to finish it. I hate how they correct the answers.
My experience going there. First the reason I don't recommend going there is they make you do some test and they only give you 15 expecting you to Finnish it light speed and it multiplication, devision, adding, and subtracting I didn't do it on time but did really good on the test but they said I couldn't do multiplication and devision cause of my time what they did is make me do adding and subtracting which I already knew and that was a waste of my time cause they give you like 4 packets of this work math and reading they expect you to do in a week which was a waste of time since I already knew that. The reason why they make you do this is because they want to make it look like your kid is learning something. If you wanna save your money I would just recommend making your kids do khan academy or you can find a really good program that show instructions on your learning plus you can start them off a grade level they are. The second reason is mentally health this stuff made me stressed out on how much things I had to do in a week (every week), let's say they have a lot of homework that's due at the end of the week you have muti task to make sure you have that 4-5 packets done so they don't make you redo that stuff and make you do it again. Just please don't sigh your kids up for look for a cheaper program or a free please.
To cut it short. Kumon made me go insane. I learnt more from the people Indian person on YouTube. That Indian was a 7 year old child
I was just a normal kid. Until Kumon came along and made it torture. Everyday I'd be doing math above my level. I'd cry when no one looks so I can deal with it and when I try to take a stand no one listens. The tutors barely helped out and when I go into the center to this day, I see at least 2 kids crying in one session. But that's not the worsr part. The worst part is that they give SCHOOL HOLIDAY HOMEWORK. Giving homework in the holidays removes the entire point of having one! Not to mention since most people I speak to this about have busy holidays so we don't have time to do the homework and then when Kumon finds out it's a big deal. WELL NO! WE HAVE OUR OWN LIVES THANK YOU VERY MUCH. OUR HOLIDAYS SHOULD BE HAPPY RESTFUL AND FUN. NOT MISERABLE. THE AMOUNT OF TIMES I CRY TO KUMON MAKES ME WANT TO BLEED OUT AND BREAK MY ENTIRE SHOULDER. It may help my grades, but it ruins my mental health.
1 star. I wish I could give negative.
My mom enrolled me in Kumon in the 2nd Grade, because I was slow at math. It was ok at first, but slowly, it started getting worse and worse. When I was having difficulty, instead of helping me, my teachers shouted at me. And instead of helping me learn the lesson when I was having a hard time, they just made me do the entire worksheet over again. Kumon also assigns homeworks every day, so when you were on vacation, you couldn't even relax. On top of all that, it was hard to balance Kumon homeworks and school assignments. So either I wouldn't do my Kumon worksheets, or I would do my Kumon worksheets but my school assignments would be past due. Overall, I $#*!ing hated it.
I go to Kumon in Queens, New York. The teachers don't even help you when you ask for help and expect you to know everything, they give lots of homework but if you are a 3rd grader and up I wouldn't recommend since of school homework and how kumon gives at least 20-30 pages of homework which is a waste of time since kumon makes you only focus on one thing. Hence, it makes you forget other things you have learned so it does not help you. In my experience in Kumon, I've been in Kumon for at least a year, I have a teacher named Mr. Jeff, he will yell at you constantly, assume things and if you go up for help he will jus say for you to go back to your seat and answer it and says he cant help you when he is actually free doing nothing, and the graders are horrible, once I put in my math work and nobody else put in there work for about the past 1 hour and I received my corrections in 45 minutes for just 10 pages of work.
Dis place sux cos it is stressful, annoying af, disrupting, pointless, time consuming, depletes my freetime, gives me xtra hw, and i forget everything dey teach me in like a month cos dey expect dat a paper can teach me everything. I could be doing anything else wit my freetime, but nah, i gota do kumon. Der stupid $#*! hw is annoying af bc i just wana chill or do smth else like actual schoolwork but i also gota do da kumon hw.
So my daughter comes from Kumon and says mom they are helping somebody else and im sitting there for an hour and no one marked my work and the staff is not very nice
If you want your kids coming home and crying everyday this is the perfect place for you! 0/10 trust me if your kid needs help get a tutor much more worth it I am discussed with this place.
I go here still, but it SUCKS. First of all, they give SO MUCH homework. It's terrible. And they time you. They say "mastery" but it's really speed and answers. Not even taking your time, it's so stupid. 2. honestly, the teachers aren't professional at all. I swear they hired some random young ladies and trained them for 10 minutes and called them skilled mathematicians. If your gonna own a math company, at least hire skilled people. 3. the so called "teachers" don't do ANYTHING. They are so lazy. They just sit there and use their answer book and write a big 100. They don't even help you. If you have a new concept, expect for them to say "figure it out yourself". I don't think anyone's paying for math for $100 a month. This is more like torture. 4. i have trouble focusing and a teacher likes to startle me. They also scream at you and say "PAY ATTENTION" like, excuse me? You could've said it quieter. 5. they all sit on their phones most of the times they aren't grading. It's so stupid and we're paying for nothing.
I quit kumon because they repeat the same thing and it is stupid when they give me 58 pages of work like what do you think i am a robot stupid and waste of money.
