Kumon Oshawa – Thornton and Rossland Centre’s opening is bringing new, digital learning options to students. Kumon Connect, the company’s new, educational enrichment platform, promotes active learning and is designed to enhance learning outcomes for students in the community.
That digital access to learning math and reading skills is what attracted Thirumagal Sri, the Instructor of the centre, to Kumon.
“In today’s digital world, I want to use every tool I can to enhance the math and literacy skills of children in my community,” Sri says. “When I worked as a classroom teacher at the elementary level, I noticed that some students who also attended Kumon were able to improve their mental math skills. This caused me to recall my own positive experiences as a Kumon student when I realized that setting goals and practicing is the key to academic success.”
Students sign in to a web-based application, where they can see their graded worksheets from the previous day, access their homework and track their progress. Instructors can “replay” students’ work, provide feedback and update lesson plans accordingly. Also, parents can monitor their children’s progress in real time through the application. Kumon’s new digital platform truly increases the connection between students and instructors and the value of Kumon for families.
Kumon Oshawa – Thornton and Rossland is located at 575 Thornton Road N., Unit 3B, in Oshawa.
