About this centre

KUMON CONNECT available Free Trial available In-Centre Class available

The Kumon West Acton Study Centre provides individualised, worksheet-based maths and English study programmes for children of all abilities. Like other tuition centres, the Kumon programmes focus on academic success however, from the very first class, we also aim to improve concentration, stamina, independence and train good study habits – essential skills that are transferable into other aspects of the student’s life.

Kumon caters to all ages and abilities, and the students at our centre range from as young as three years old to teenagers. Students complete individually set work and are given homework on days they do not attend class. Most children spend approximately 30 to 40 minutes in class per subject, although this will vary depending on the child’s age and ability. Many have been attending the centre for several years and are comfortably working at advanced levels beyond their school grade.

The Kumon West Acton Study Centre is a calm, focused environment where independence and concentration is encouraged in all students. We have highly trained Classroom Assistants working alongside the Instructor, closely monitoring and guiding students as they study and progress.

About the Instructor

Acton West - Tomoko Egawa
My name is Tomoko Egawa, and I am originally from Japan. I have grown up with Kumon and my daughter is a student, making good progress through the programmes. I feel honoured to run the Kumon West Acton Study Centre – a historic centre which has been running for over 35 years.

Kumon studying is a self-learning method that discovers each individual's potential and develops their abilities. Consistent effort with active involvement of the parents leads to significant results. I hear often that children find learning with Kumon really helpful as they study their GCSEs and A-levels.

I operate my centre in the hope that my students will grow not just as students, but as people. The Kumon West Acton Study Centre operates to help children become people who believe in their own potential and can overcome any difficulties that they encounter in life.

Popular 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.

Students can start learning with Kumon from age two upwards. We currently have students as young as two years old studying with us, ranging all the way up to those about to go to university; Kumon helps children of any age and any ability. The sooner children begin, the earlier they can start developing skills to gain the greatest cumulative benefit; as soon as you feel your family is ready to make the commitment to long-term study, Kumon will be ready to help you achieve your goal.

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.
