Kumon Open House

To encourage parents to read to their children every day, Kuman Math and Reading Centers will open their centers during October (beginning Monday) and offer advice to tailor books from a 350-title catalogue to the specific child. Kumon, an after-school math and reading program, is a private turtoring company that employs a structured approach to math and reading to help build "a solid command of math and reading skills," the New Jersey-based company stated.
Information about the 10 Kumon centers in the local area (in Torrance, Rancho Palos Verdes, Carson and other areas) can be found on the Kumon Web site.
