The most important thing in life is to open up new worlds for our children to explore. Every child possesses a vast, untapped potential to learn. Every child is a "gifted" child in ways we normally do not appreciate. -Toru Kumon, Founder
It is our wish that as many children as possible receive the opportunity to develop their potential. Maths and English for children of all ages and abilities..
The Kumon Method of learning was developed over 50 years ago in Japan by Toru Kumon, a high school Maths teacher whose son was struggling with Grade 2 Maths. Mr Kumon was convinced that he could help his son improve his Maths by introducing him to the skills one step at a time. With that in mind, Toru Kumon created a series of worksheets for his son to do after school and by Grade 6 his son was able to solve integral and differential calculus problems. He achieved this by spending only 30 minutes a day completing his father’s worksheets.
Kumon is not designed to improve Maths and English skills as an end in itself; it is an educational method which uses Maths and English skills to develop the potential of each child.The aim of Kumon is to unleash each child's potential to love learning, by improving confidence and self-esteem, and encouraging self-discipline and a good daily study habit.
There is no failing in Kumon, because each child works at his or her own carefully monitored level.
Toru Kumon: "Every Child An Achiever"
Most Kumon centres follow the following simple procedure:

In addition, each student is awarded with an Achievement Certificate on successful completion of a Kumon level and Kumon has an Advanced Student Recognition Programme for those students who surpass grade level.
