Mr. Toru Kumon, Founder of Kumon
the kuMon Method waS Born FiFty yearS ago
in a Japanese household and remains the backbone of
Kumon’s educational publishing program. The step-by-step,
incremental approach to math and reading was designed
by high-school teacher Toru Kumon, who later founded
the Kumon Institute of Education. He originally created
his system to help his second-grade son Takeshi do bet-

worksheets by hand for Takeshi to study every day. Toru
believed that educators should encourage a child’s moti-

worksheet to be slightly more difficult than that of the
day before, so that his son would continue to be inspired
by his studies, and advance without stress. Toru later de-
vised worksheets for reading as well.
Convinced by his son’s results, Toru opened a learning
center with his wife on the second floor of their house in 1955
to share the valuable learning method with others. As the
years went by the Kumon Learning Center gradually gained
in reputation as its students’ grades in school dramatically
improved. Although he once struggled in math, Takeshi

what gooD is the outCome of our
work if it does not make us happier? according
to most psychologists today, citizens of two of
the richest countries on the planet, america
and Japan, don’t seem to be any happier
despite all their advances. philosopher/
entrepreneur hiroshi tasaka calls this the
“happiness gap,” and says it is the most
important personal crisis that we all face.
using a compelling mixture of Zen
buddhist philosophy and the teachings of
Friedrich nietzsche, tasaka argues for
the adoption of a purpose in our lives.
what sort of life would you be happy to
repeat, over and over again? what sort
of life features growth as its central
theme? how can we keep our eye on the
future while remaining rooted in the
present? let tasaka’s To the Summit
inspire you to answer these questions.
To the Summit: Why Should You Embrace
an Ideal in Your Heart? is 5 ¾ x 8 ¼ inches,

innovative brain exercise regimen in Train
Your Brain: 60 Days to a Better Brain. this

for developing Train Your Brain to help
Japan’s aging population maintain optimal
brain functioning. as Dr. k says, “if you want
to stay young at heart, and mentally sharp,
take a few minutes a day to Train Your Brain!”
