Like most parents, my husband and I want our children to build a strong foundation in learning. Enrolling Tiano and Leandro in the Kumon program of Sampaguita Avenue – Holy Spirit Center has been one of the best decisions we have made for their education. Beyond their academic progress in math and reading, our children have developed valuable traits—discipline, independence, and confidence. 

Tiano has been under the guidance of Teacher Sylvia since 2022, while Leandro started learning with Teacher Michelle in 2024. Admittedly, our children initially found it challenging to complete their daily worksheets, as they began the program at the young ages of three and four. However, through their teachers’ dedication and our follow-up at home, Tiano and Leandro started to appreciate the importance of being consistent, responsible, and diligent. They have learned to read instructions carefully, answer questions, and correct their mistakes on their own, which allowed them to take ownership of their learning. Because of this routine, their confidence has grown so much. Every time they progress to the next level, they feel proud of their accomplishment. 

The discipline, independence, and confidence they have gained have also reflected in other parts of their learning and interactions. Tiano has begun participating—and even winning—in math olympiads, while Leandro has been praised for reading and writing well in his class. As parents, it warms our hearts to see our children believe in their own abilities. We truly appreciate how Kumon is helping them build discipline, independence, and confidence while they’re still young. We are therefore confident that these habits and attitudes will make them strong, responsible, and courageous adults. Kaya naman #SalamatKumon.
