Having over 20 years in the Kumon program, Winston and Jane have proven themselves far beyond normal expectations within the Kumon program. Offering free consultations to new students, Jane and Winston will sit down with your child to review their past progress and evaluate a strategy to push them further. Please have a look around and find out what makes Newton Kumon Math & Reading Center the exceptional Kumon center.

Our Philosophy
Jane and Winston are no strangers to the education process. As the parents of four children, two who have graduated from college, they have witnessed enormous progress of their own children through the Kumon system. They continue to see their roles less as "teachers" working with passive students, and more as "coaches" of students who are learning to be increasingly active and independent. They consistently monitor, encourage as well as teach. Most of their students will reach beyond grade level and when help is needed, Jane and Winston are there to work one on one with your child.
