I did Kumon as a child in Montreal (I used to hate it at the time) but it's been pretty helpful lol. It's a shame it's not offered in Dubai- would have liked to get my LO into it :(

Xmasbaby - can you share your experience with sylvan? I looking to sign up my 5 yr old for something. Would have preferred Kumon but doesn't seem to be an option in Dubai? Can others share their experience on the other centre in JLT. Ta!

I contacted them about a month ago and there is no centre in Dubai. You can order material from Bahrain where there is a centre. We went with Sylvan as an alternative.

I haven't heard of anywhere offering the Kumon programme here in Dubai although a friend's son was doing it in Abu Dhabi. However, a learning centre opening soon in JLT is offering the magikats programme for English & Maths. Google 'magikats' and 'cascadelearningcentre'.

Thank u for the prompt response. My kids went to riverbend Kumon since grade 1 till this summer. Its really very very good. Its really unfortunate that its not here in UAE. So how does this work thru correspondence? How do the kids do their weekly one day in class work? How is the quality? is it good? is it comparable to the riverbend one? The kumon really helped the kids in english and Math.

There is no Kumon in the UAE. Long story - heard it was coming to Knowledge Village a few years ago but it did not turn out. There are quite a few kids (including mine) who do Kumon through correspondence via Bahrain. It isn't ideal but it works. If you are interested call Fiona at +973-3-987-2725. She is lovely, extremely supportive and very efficient. Funny enough my brother did Kumon for years in Edmonton (Riverbend) and my kids did it one summer there as well. Small world.
