Kumon is an after-school, supplementary study programme offered around maths and English worksheets. What separates Kumon is how the worksheets and instruction are deliberately provided according to your child's ability/ knowledge level (not their grade level). This raises learning ability as well as your child's knowledge level leading to confident, independent learning regardless of age.

While parents are enrolling their children as young as preschool, the most common time to enrol is now during the early primary years. Parents are typically motivated to see their children develop into confident learners through strong study habits so that school is not a struggle and that the benefits of advanced reading and calculation abilities flow through to all their other subjects/ activities.

Confidence will lift almost immediately. As you can imagine, school classes are required to progress through the curriculum as a group whereas Kumon allows the child's ability and initiative to govern how far they go. The moment students feel more confident and personally involved in their learning is the starting point for better school grades.

Our goal is to develop children's potential to comfortably learn materials and through experience we now aim for all students to move well ahead of their school curriculum. This takes some students longer than others but by this stage, most students have become self-motivated and show a new curiosity and enthusiasm to challenge themselves to tackle new materials.

With materials and instruction tailored to the individual child, successful learning and progress is made by all students. It is common knowledge that starting as young as possible and developing skills early will lead to the greatest cumulative benefits. Kumon recommends preschool enrolment or during the early primary years for enrichment purposes.

Kumon study offers more than one-on-one tuition. The Kumon Method facilitates self-acquisition of the skills and study habits needed to improve academic performance. This empowers children to succeed on their own, giving them a sense of accomplishment that fosters further achievement. A child who develops learning tools in this way may never have to rely on costly tutoring.

Kumon has chosen to devote most of its resources to developing rather than promoting its programs. While Kumon has grown steadily in Australia and New Zealand -largely by word-of-mouth-it has been a household name primarily in the Asian-Australian community.

Most students attend Kumon twice a week year-round and do brief daily assignments the other five days. Kumon sessions and assignments can usually be completed in less than twenty minutes, for maths or English. Parental involvement is strongly encouraged and recommended for optimal results.

Kumon fees are paid on a monthly basis. In Australia and New Zealand, the monthly fee is $100 per month per subject. There is an initial enrolment fee of $60 in Australia and New Zealand.
Correspondence study is also available under the same enrolment fees but with monthly fees of $107 in Australia and New Zealand.
Kumon will conduct your child's Diagnostic Test free of charge.
