Kumon offers math and reading at a monthly cost ranging from $80 to $100 for a single subject, with a beginning registration fee of $50, and material fees of $15. Again, the fees associated are set at the determination of each franchise owner, as are the hours of operation, and will vary.
More than 10,000 kids in the D.C. area attend Kumon. Let's take the math program as an example of how Kumon works: Students first learn to count to 10, then 30, then 50. Then it's writing numbers up to 120 without help, counting to 220 and recognizing groups of 20 dots. From there, they begin single digit addition with +1, then +2, all the way through +5.
