Hi! I am have been an E.nopi instructor for almost 3 years now. While we may be using worksheets, just like other supplemental learning programs, you can be rest assured that we do interact with our students and we take time to explain new concepts to them as our student teacher ratio is 1 teacher to 5 students (maximum). Furthermore, the E.nopi homework will not and is not designed to interfere with the child’s other activities like studying, playing etc. We give very minimal homework, just enough to enable the child to practice their skills at home, on a daily basis -Sundays excluded. The objective of the program is to enable the student to work independently, but we will not deprive them of explanations. As we always say,”It’s fun learning!” Hope you could visit one of our centers to get a free parent orientation. Thanks.

My child is with Enopi.. I attended the orientation of Kumon and enopi and searched what other parents say about these methods on the net..I decided on Enopi because it has both Basic math and critical thinking math, the materials are colorful(higher chance of sustaining a child’s interest) and no short cuts on how to solve problems, it also complements his lessons in school ..my little one used to be so stressed with math, but now- enjoys it and even asks for additional math work. But again.. you know your kids better… what worked for us may not work for you…

My son was a student of Enopi for 2 years and it really gave the advantage in some lessons, sometimes review of his class lessons. We stopped because the center nearest to us closed and my son got accepted to the enrichment program in school. I haven’t tried Kumon so I can’t say much about it but Enopi was really helpful to my son. The worksheets are very colorful and there are cartooons that kids love.

why don’t you guys also try NumberWorks its a math tutorial specialist, they use computers so the kids have lots of fun doing the math activities…i.m a SPED teacher so i encounter a lot of kids that find reading and math really challenging anyways they are relatively the same price…they started in alabang saw an ad that they are also in greenhills and katipunan
hope this helps

hi, i have the same feelings with you. my son has been with Kumon for a year now & it seems no improvement, it even got worse. I already had my high blood pressure because of too many mistakes in the worksheets. Luckily my company is paying 75%of the tuition fee, otherwise I will not enroll my son.Now my dilemma is how can he learn to love Kumon..I will try that Enopi..

I would give Kumon a try again when your child is older. We had the same experience starting at Kindergarten. Tried again in 2nd grade and it worked out great. Kumon should not take an 1 hour a day. 15 – 20 mins a day at the most. I can see why he hated it. My kids are now in 5th and 3rd grade and kumon is 2nd nature to them. We go to the Kumon centers 2x a month only but do the packets every day at home or in school. I check it for correctness everyday. I have a copy of their answersheet so it’s very quick.

My family has had a lot of success with Sylvan. They test their students first to determine the need, set goals and timelines and get results.They also built self confidence in our kids!

Thanks Ces but I’m based in Davao City. I checked the MSA website and they do not have a branch here.
