Math At Edina and Eden Prairie Kumon

The materials start from preschool counting and fine motor development exercises and extend to calculus, trigonometry and differential equations.

Students begin at a comfortable starting point with work that can be easily completed. This way they master the basics and gain complete proficiency with each successive step

Advancing Step By Step

Each Kumon assignment is slightly more challenging than the last. The progression is gradual so that students are able to acquire the skills to advance and learn independently.

Speed + Accuracy = Mastery

Material should be completed with a perfect score within a prescribed period of time. All work is graded and the results recorded to determine when a child has a total command of the material and is ready to move on.
