About our centre

As part of the Kumon community, our centre is dedicated to providing a nurturing and empowering learning environment where every child is encouraged to take ownership of their learning journey. We believe that true understanding leads to confidence — and that each small moment of progress builds a foundation for lifelong learning.
 
At our centre, Kumon is more than just completing worksheets; it’s about developing essential life skills, building resilience, and helping every learner discover what they are truly capable of achieving. Through consistent practice, personalised support, and a focus on self-learning, we aim to ensure that every student not only succeeds academically but also grows in confidence and independence.

About your Instructor

Growing up, I was fortunate to be surrounded by a strong and supportive community of family members, teachers, and learning centres who continuously encouraged me to reach my full academic potential. Their belief in my abilities not only shaped my confidence and knowledge but also deepened my appreciation for the transformative power of education.
 
Recognising that not every child has access to the same level of encouragement and opportunity, I’ve developed a strong passion for helping learners realise their potential. My journey with Kumon began when a colleague shared the remarkable progress her son had achieved through the programme. Intrigued, I enrolled my own child and was genuinely amazed by the results. Seeing how Kumon nurtures confidence, independence, and a love of learning inspired me to become part of this incredible system that equips students with skills that extend far beyond the classroom.

Frequently Asked Questions

Kumon is a self-learning programme with each student receiving regular support from their Instructor. The carefully developed worksheets teach students how to find the answer for themselves, whilst their Instructor offers guidance when necessary. The key role of each Kumon Instructor is to observe their students working, either in the centre or their online class, making sure that work is set at the right level and that they are developing at the right pace.

Both, and every child in between. This is because of our individualised approach to education, which always asks the question: "What is best for this individual child?" Following a diagnostic test, a study plan is set to develop the ability of the child and to progress them beyond the Kumon International Standard (an international approximation of their school level) regardless of their starting point. Kumon welcomes students with special educational needs, gifted and talented children, and all those who believe they can achieve more and fulfil their potential.

Kumon offers much more than tutoring and differs from traditional teaching in the classroom. Rather than preparing children for a particular test or assessment, Kumon empowers students to learn for themselves, through individualised instruction and carefully developed worksheets.

As well as developing key skills in maths and English, each Kumon student will work towards building their independent learning skills and confidence in their own abilities. This means that a Kumon student will not be dependent on – or limited by – the skills and knowledge of others.

As a global programme, Kumon does not follow a school curriculum, but rather is complementary to curricula across the world. The primary aim of the Kumon Method is to develop independent learning skills. These independent learning skills enhance the students’ performance right across the school curriculum. Kumon operates at exactly the right level for each student – regardless of their age – ensuring that work set extends and develops their skills, confidence and ability.
