## Story

This program is part of Kumon’s English as a Foreign Language (EFL) program which services English language learners in multiple languages around the world. With its proven success in assisting more than 100,000 students worldwide, the EFL Program is set to transform language learning for non-native English speakers.

“We are thrilled to bring the EFL Program to the U.S., and we know that it will provide invaluable support to students who want to improve their English language skills," said Mino Tanabe, CEO at Kumon North America. "The program's success in other countries has been remarkable, and we are excited to see similar results as the program in Florida grows.”

The EFL Program caters to the unique needs of students who want to enhance their English proficiency. By leveraging the Kumon Method, students in Florida have access to a comprehensive and structured approach to master English.

Claudia Antelo, Instructor at the Kumon Center of Weston–Saddle Club Road, was one of six Kumon Instructors to pilot the program.

“This program aims to bridge the gap for Spanish-speaking students by helping them develop essential English reading and comprehension skills,” she said. “The English as a Foreign Language Program introduces English vocabulary and expressions used in everyday life. It also leverages audio supplements to enhance listening and speaking abilities, allowing students to learn more quickly and naturally in an independent manner that Kumon Founder Toru Kumon would have loved.”

The program's launch in the U.S. opens new opportunities for students to broaden their linguistic horizons and excel in an increasingly diverse and interconnected world.

The English for Spanish Speakers program (EFL) is available at select centers in Florida, which include:

- Fort Lauderdale – Coral Ridge: 2056 E. Oakland Park Blvd., Fort Lauderdale
