Independent because of Kumon

"Solving problems with my own ability brings a joyous feeling! I am ready to challenge myself with more difficult problems."

I started my journey in Kumon when I was still in kindergarten. I was very happy because I could solve number exercises easily. Currently I am a Primary 2 student doing fraction and decimal, which are Primary 6 materials. Sometimes I feel that my worksheets became more difficult than before. But when I encounter difficulty, my Instructor and mother are always there to provide support and motivation.

I have learnt to work hard solving the problems by myself. So I choose to think rather than ask the assistants in the Center because when I can find the answer by myself, I feel happy and want to write it immediately. Difficult materials challenge me to become tougher and more hardworking.

What I have learnt in Kumon really helps with my studies at school. I now can understand school problems easily and solve them faster. My grade in Math has also improved tremendously. The habit in doing daily homework has made me more disciplined in doing school work. Moreover, I have overcome my shyness and now I am not ashamed to express my opinions in front of others.
