LOOMI VS. KUMON - WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW

As a parent, you want the very best for your child, especially when it comes to their education. With so many tutoring-services companies available, it might feel overwhelming to choose which one to enrol your kids in. One popular company comes to mind as I write this - KUMON, which has been in existence for quite some time.

But you may ask, why should I choose LOOMI over KUMON? What preferential treatment does my kid get? And what’s so special about LOOMI, that I’d dedicate my kid’s education into their hands?. These are great questions, and I’d take a brief moment to answer them:

1. FREE ACCESS TO IXL AND LITERACY PLANET FOR A YEAR - Upon registration for any of our programs, your kids get access to IXL and LITERACY PLANET for a year! Imagine not having to pay extra for these and saving that money for other necessities. This is one of the preferential treatment you instantly have access to, that Kumon doesn’t offer.

2. ⁠BROAD CURRICULUM - LOOMI offers a wider curriculum of subjects that you can choose from to cater for your kid’s academic needs. We offer over five (5) varieties of programs which includes Maths, English, Reading, Science, Creative reading and French. Kumon only offers Maths and Reading classes which might not address your kid’s broader academic needs and interests.

3. CONVENIENCE & FLEXIBILITY - LOOMI delivers its tutoring services over the internet.

   You can literally be anywhere in the world and have access to our tutors and programs from the comfort of your home. We offer flexible scheduling options, including weekends and school holidays. Sessions are fully online, 7 days a week so you can easily adapt the tutoring to fit your routine. Kumon doesn’t offer this kind of flexibility. Parents usually have to drive to each Kumon center in their city to get access to their tutoring programs.

4. ZERO ENROLMENT FEES - After registration with us, we do not require parents to pay additional fees for enrolment. With Kumon, you are required to pay an additional enrolment fee of at least $150 per child.

5. HANDS-ON SUPPORT - I vividly remember some complaints from parents, revealing to us that tutors from other tutoring companies are usually rigid and don’t help to monitor or assist with the assignment of their kids. This could be overwhelming for parents who are usually swamped and believe their payments for tutoring-services at these companies should necessarily cover up for these.

At LOOMI, our tutors provide hands-on support for your kids, give them direct guidance for their homework and help them oversee their daily activities in school.

While Kumon is a program with a proven track record, it may not suit every child’s learning style. LOOMI with its personalised, interactive approach, offers a better alternative that adapts to each of your kid’s needs. Ready to book a free assessment with us?
