Children's Franchise Opportunity with Kumon

Kumon

Start your own after-school maths & English study centre

Kumon is one of the market leading providers of after-school Maths and English classes; providing supplementary education to over 54,000 children throughout the UK and Ireland.

Working with Kumon is a hands-on role where you are responsible for all areas of the business including the instruction of the students. Kumon encourages the development of a daily study habit with children attending the study centre twice a week, which usually takes place in low cost rented space such as churches, schools and community centres.

A Kumon Instructor’s key tasks:

• Instructing the children – setting work, motivating the students, providing study projections, maintaining study records and helping them realise their potential.
• Communicating Kumon values to potential and existing parents, conducting thorough enrolments, holding communication classes and being aware of parental involvement in the Kumon method.
• Marketing your study centre – promoting your centre and the service that Kumon offers in your local area.
• Managing your study centre- the day-to-day running of a business such as ordering stock and managing staff. 

What is the Kumon Method?

Toru Kumon developed the Kumon method of learning in Japan, in 1954. He found that children who learned, without being limited by the preconceptions of the teacher, by being given work that was at the ‘just right’ level for them, developed faster and further. By not limiting the potential of students, he was able to help children soar in their educational lives. More importantly, by giving these children long-term skills for learning, they succeeded in their adult lives as well. There are now Kumon study centres in 46 countries around the world, with all of them offering maths and many of them also offering a language programme.

Where is Kumon today?

There are currently over four million students studying the Kumon Method, and as each child goes through our programme, we ourselves continue to learn; ensuring that the method is always improving and growing with the children studying it.

Becoming a Kumon Instructor

At Kumon what we care about most is the children; we are looking for people who share our commitment to children’s learning. We are not looking to open short-term study centres, so you must be certain that you are looking for a long-term venture and have a desire to help as many children as possible achieve their potential.

To ensure you have all the information you need to make an informed choice about taking on a Kumon study centre, we offer a free, no obligation, Information Session. This is a presentation about Kumon: who we are, what we want to achieve and how we see ourselves achieving this. It is the first step in deciding if Kumon is the right option for you.
