The Kumon English Curriculum

The English curriculum has two key learning objectives:

to develop each student’s ability to read and understand a wide variety of language
to nurture in each student a life-long habit of reading for both education and enjoyment

It is our experience that achieving these objectives will make the biggest contribution to success at school and at work, and this is why we focus so strongly on developing fundamental knowledge and skills.

The Kumon English materials are divided into 18 levels, each containing 200-400 worksheets. We motivate students to develop their skills and expand their interests through a wide range of reading
