My children used to do Kumon and really loved it It was a great help to my son who wouldn't, rather than couldn't, learn his tables.

The progression is really sound. DD wanted to do it as DS was, although she didn't need to, she got to GSCE level at 10, it helped her enormously with her A level maths because of the methodical way it works and reinforces a concept.

The English wasn't around when my two did maths, and I had often said that I wished that it would happen and eventually it did.

I would have no hesitation in reccommending it.

Alibubbles - I think you are in and around St Albans like me - which Kumon centre did you use?

Thanks
