[quote=Anonymous]Absolutely! I put my three kids in Kumon for two years each in early elementary school so they would become lightening fast at math facts. I kept them in it until they finish level E which is fractions. They were the fastest students when they had time tests. And now it pays off when trying to do algebra problems because they don’t have to exert any mental effort to reduce a fraction like 36/48 or 16/56 or add/subtract/multiply/divide when solving a complicated problem. They tell me they have kids in their classes that are still having to mentally manipulate or use fingers to do addition,subtraction, multiplication facts. Homework in upper grades in math gets completed faster so there is time to supplement with other math programs like Beast Academy/Aops. [/quote]
