JEI's internationally acclaimed Self-Learning Method will help develop confidence in children with individually paced, step-by-step learning. Once children gain confidence and begin to enjoy learning independently, their potential grows exponentially. JEI Learning Centers was founded in South Korea by Sung Hoon Park, a visionary educator and entrepreneur with an innovative idea. In 1977, Mr. Park and a team of JEI researchers developed the JEI Self Learning Method. The JEI Self Learning Method is a self-paced, individualized program that helps the student master mathematical and language concepts in small, easy-to-follow steps. Highly successful in South Korea, Mr. Park brought the JEI Method to the United States in 1992, followed by Canada, Hong Kong, China, Australia, and New Zealand. JEI's great success has been based on the philosophy that all children have the potential to become creative and talented individuals.
