EDUCATION
At Kumon, self-learning and developing soft skills are just as important as
grades. Students are provided with materials best suited to their abilities, so no
one gets left behind or feels unmotivated because they don’t feel challenged.
Kumon does not spoon-feed answers. Instead, they guide students to find
the answers themselves. Students develop independent and critical thinking
skills instead of passively receiving directions from their instructors.
Designed for every child
Kumon offers a wide variety of programmes, and they are suitable for all
ages as worksheets are carefully designed for students to advance in small
steps, and at their own pace. Main programmes cover core subjects such
as mathematics, English, and even pencil skills for young children to start
drawing and writing at an early age.
Kumon marked its 60
th
anniversary in 2018 as the world’s leading afterschool
enrichment programme for students from pre-school right up to Year 12 or
sixth form level.
