I look up to students who have completed the entire Kumon Math and Reading Program. I aspire to one day be like them and attend college confidently and be mentally prepared to excel there.”     Nikita’s motivation has already put her on the path to success.

We had the opportunity to speak to  Nikita  about  her  Kumon journey thus far.   How has Kumon helped you academically?   Academically, Kumon has helped me by teaching  me  concepts  in math that I haven’t yet learned in school, which makes it easier for me when I get to  those  concepts  in school. The  Kumon Reading Program  helped me analyze complex literature more efficiently.  I  am able to  understand the novels and other literary works I read in school.     What do you enjoy most about Kumon?   What I enjoy most about Kumon is how every student can learn at their own pace. Since the  Kumon Method’s  approach is self-learning,  students can take as much time as they need on a skill set.   How has Kumon helped you outside of the classroom?   Outside of the classroom, Kumon has helped me by improving my attention span and focus. It has even given me confidence knowing that I can  problem solve  independently. I can also break down complex math problems into smaller  easier  steps for me to understand.     If you could sum up your Kumon experience in one word, what would it be?   If I could sum up my Kumon experience in one word, it would be “valuable”.     What did it mean to you attending the Student Conference?     Attending the Student Conference was an incredible privilege, and I was honored to be one of the top students from Kumon North America. I learned so much from older Kumon Students, and got to meet people around the world who are just like me.   What advice do you have for other Kumon Students?   To kids just starting Kumon, I would tell them to persevere all the way through. Even though there is work daily, and it may seem impossible to complete a level, just keep going and soon, you too will complete the program!  Kumon starts you at just the right level and will build upon your previous knowledge. Just keep persevering through!     Discover even more student success stories.   You might also be interested in: This Young Kumon Reading Program Completer is an Aspiring Computer Engineer Meet Elina, a Dual Program Completer Who Has Developed Independence in Kumon This Reading Program Completer Gained Confidence from Kumon Meet Jessica, a Kumon Reading Program Completer Who Has a Way With Words Kumon Reading Program Completer Motivated by Other Students Kumon Reading Program Completer Motivated by Other Students Nikita, 13-years-old, Level  L  Math, Reading Program Completer   Before even entering high school, 13-year-old Nikita can say she has taken a deep dive into literature analyzing the works of Shakespeare, as she has already completed the  Kumon Reading Program.  Now, she’s  well  on her way to also completing the  Kumon Math Programâ€"currently  studying the introduction of calculus.     Having been enrolled in Kumon for  eight years, Nikita  has experienced the true benefits of the Kumon Method.     “I am motivated to stay in Kumon because it has helped me so much, and I  believe it will continue to help me moving forward,” said Nikita.  â€œIt has taught me independence, problem solving skills, and most importantly, has put me ahead in school.
