I'm looking for opinions of Kumon maths if you started fairly early (say before mid year 2) and stuck with it through Primary.
Why did you start Kumon?
Did your DC go tto state or private school?
When it came time for 11+ or private (senior) entrance exams, did you feel Kumon or the national curriculum did a better job of preparing your child for the exam?
How long did you stay with Kumon and why did you stop when you did?
At what point in the National Curriculum did you find the Kumon really revealed it's success?
Did you find that Kumon compliments or fights agains the national curriculum?
And, again, I really want to hear from long term Kumon parents. We have been with Kumon for a year. So far I like it. But, I'm wondering about the long term advantages (and of course disadvantages as well).
Thank you!
