DO NOT USE VARSITY. If i could give less than one star, I…read morewould. We signed up three weeks ago because my stepdaughter needs help in 6th grade math and language arts. After 3 weeks, we still have not had a successful tutoring session and I have had to spend almost 8 hours on the phone trying to get help. At first, they kept matching her with tutors who were trying to schedule sessions outside of her availability - which was in her profile. We had to do the work of calling and complaining each time we matched with a tutor and they scheduled an incorrect session. For example, she is supposed to have tutoring on Tuesdays and Thursdays. We got session requests for Saturday at 7pm. wtf? Then, their customer service sucks. Most of their service reps are outside of the US and there is no way to escalate and talk to a manager. They say that a manager "will call you back in the next 24-48 hours", but if you miss that call, there is no way to call the manager back directly. You have to go through the ENTIRE song and dance again, with a new rep that knows nothing about your case. They FINALLY matched our kid with a tutor available during her time, but only after I spent SEVEN HOURS on the phone with them on Monday and had to talk to multiple different reps. I was hung up on twice by folks who said "what do you want me to do? Ive flagged the problem.". This week, our 6th grader was supposed to start her tutoring but guess what? The tutor has cancelled BOTH SESSIONS this week last minute. On Tuesday, she cancelled about 30 minutes before our session and didnt find another tutor to step in. Today, she cancelled 5 minutes before our session without even a "sorry". I called the customer service line back and have just spent the last 45 minutes on the phone trying to talk to a manager about this with no luck. Interestingly, the customer service reps have no authority to help you with your tutor or cancel your membership. This place is a horrible scam. They do not care about you. They do not care about your children. They do not care about education.

I was really, really hopeful that this program would work for my children. I initiated contact…read morethrough the email provided on the website, and received a response from the admin. assistant a few days later. I had a variety of questions that the website did not answer for me, such as.... Is my child assessed for their current Spanish comprehension prior to being enrolled in one the programs they offer? How is that done? Formal assessment? Is the current class offerings full, or is there a certain enrollment period? For private lessons, do I pick a time, does the teacher pick the time? I find these questions to be simple enough, but sadly it took over a month of ME pursuing this business with phone calls and emails to get all questions answered. I think it odd that I had to go to so much work to try and give them my money. Eventually, 6 weeks later, I was paired up with a Tutor who I thought was going to assess my daughter and determine a class placement and provide me with more information (curriculum, assessments, contracts, commitments, etc.) While she was extremely nice to me, interactive with my daughter and cheerful.... she knew close-to-nothing about The Spanish Immersion Program. According to her, I would be paying Spanish immersion a lot of money to have her come over once a week for an hour and hang out with my daughter speaking conversational Spanish. I don't expect or need a textbook for my kid. But for it being a business that provides a professional service, I was expecting a little something more. To show that I was getting my money's worth. A Pre & Post evaluation that says, "look, we have goals and guidelines and your child is reaching them. See?" Maybe something that says the tutors are background checked, formally trained, and come with prior teaching/tutoring experience. something. anything. I made one last attempt to speak to the Director, who couldn't remember off the top of her head what the rates were for classes PLUS tutoring (because I really don't think the cost and time for one hour a week would be effective). She never followed up, so I ultimately took my business elsewhere.

My kid is 8 and in third grade and has been excelling in school because of Kumon! The kid started…read moreKumon when he was 3 because he wanted to read and preschool wasn't really teaching reading just yet for this age group and I'm no educator. Thankfully, Kumon was able to accommodate. At 4 years old we started the math portion of Kumon because he showed such an interest in basic arithmetic. Since then we've just been going. Thankfully even through COVID, which was helpful as there was no learning gap for the kid as he continued to work through reading and math while schools were closed or went online. Now that we've incorporated Kumon as part of his academic toolbox I do not have to worry about school. He's scoring 3 grade levels (6th grade) above his current grade level in reading. And he's scoring almost two grade levels (5th grade) in math! We literally call his school homework "silly homework". He is not struggling in school at all and can finish a week's worth of the silly homework in a day to focus on the Kumon work that's actually challenging. Disclaimer: this is hard work! Parent involvement is key!!!!! Kids receive homework everyday and parents should be involved with guiding, reviewing, and helping their child. It sucks! I'm struggling to remember how to multiply and divide fractions. Apparently it comes back to you! There were many tears in the beginning of Kumon, but now it's just something we do as part of our routine. I prefer the paper Kumon packets over the tablet work. It helps me with guiding and explaining to my kid what he got wrong, why, and what he should be looking out for. The tablet/app provides the work, the kid turns it in, but there's no feedback. Which if your kid is struggling you'd never know until they can't pass a test after multiple times. The kid has excelled so much and so quickly that I've had to slow him down bc I'm so scared he'll get too far ahead and forget. Instead of twice a week, we're only at Kumon once a week and I've requested to reduce his homework packets to also accommodate his sports schedule. Thankfully, Ms Mariah (my favorite Kumon instructor) has been with me every step of the way and has been incredibly helpful with how Kumon plays a role in our life.

I really cannot recommend this location enough! I enrolled my boys when they were 7 and 5 a year…read moreand a half ago. Finally enough time has passed to leave an honest review. My 9 yo was behind 2 grade levels and my 7yo was behind 1 grade level in when we started Kumon due to Covid. As we started to get normalcy back from the pandemic, we looked into tutoring or enrichment centers so that we can get our boys back on track. My 9yo is now almost where he needs to be with his grade level (he has ADHD so seeing this growth is just amazing), whilst my 7 yo is on track to be above his grade level in both subjects. This is without a doubt a lot of commitment and dedication in partnership with staff. I am happy with the development of my boys. We started with just Reading for the 1st year and now have added Math to our boys' curriculum. Their concepts for beginning reading is based on phonics and understanding phonemes and graphemes then going straight into comprehension. Math is learning quick mental math to elevate math concepts of what your child's classroom is teaching. With that said, Kumon has enhanced my boys' experience in school within these subjects as they feel more confident among their peers. Miss Nibah and Miss Myriah have always been amazing to work with. Both will consistently communicate to me what support I can do to assist my boys in each level, goals they want to see my boys reach with an achievable timeframe, positive encouragement, and allowing me to be able to reach out at any given moment for additional support if needed. The rest of the staff are helpful to assist and very sweet and polite. I anticipate to keep them in until they outgrow this curriculum (through high school). We cannot thank you enough for all that you do here at Kumon in Natomas!
