About our centre

The centre was established in January 2015.

Students receive a free assessment before embarking on a personalised programme of study. Kumon is suitable for students of all ages and ability. Most students attend class once a week and will usually stay in the class for about 30 to 45 minutes.

The centre is led by the Instructor, Sharmin Ullah, who is aided by trained assistants who support the development of students by listening to them read or checking classwork and guiding them until they can work independently.

In class, worksheet study is complemented by number board activities where appropriate. There is also a reading corner with a selection of books from various levels in the Kumon Recommended Reading List.

Kumon should not be considered a traditional tuition provider as, rather than ‘teaching’ students, we encourage them to become independent learners who feel confident in their own abilities and able to face unfamiliar work.

The unique Kumon maths and English Programmes pursue the potential of each child by developing confident, independent learners through individualised, advanced study.

About your Instructor

         

Hi, I’m Sharmin, the Instructor at Kumon Farnham Study Centre.

I was first introduced to Kumon through my nieces and nephew, and I was genuinely amazed by the progress they made—not just academically, but in how much more confident and independent they became. Watching them grow through the Kumon method really opened my eyes to how powerful consistent learning can be. They started exceeding expectations at school, and it was clear that Kumon had given them something special. That experience is what inspired me to become a Kumon Instructor myself.

I’ve always had a strong interest in education. While studying Biomedical Science as an undergraduate, I volunteered with primary school children, helping with maths, science, and reading. Later, during my postgraduate studies in Physician Associate training at St George’s University in London, I lectured undergraduate students and also led teaching sessions in primary care. These experiences, across different age groups and settings, have helped me develop the skills and confidence to work with children of all ages.

What I love most about the Kumon programme is that it’s not just about academic performance. It builds essential life skills like independence, resilience, and problem-solving. Learning something new always takes time and practice, and Kumon encourages children to take ownership of that process. Over time, they begin to trust themselves, enjoy the challenge, and grow into self-learners, something I believe sets them up for lifelong success.

As a Kumon Instructor, I work closely with each student, tailoring the programme to suit their individual needs and pace. Every child has potential, and I see my role as helping them unlock it.

I look forward to welcoming you and your child to the centre, and being part of their learning journey!

Frequently Asked Questions

Both, and every child in between. This is because of our individualised approach to education, which always asks the question: "What is best for this individual child?" Following a diagnostic test, a study plan is set to develop the ability of the child and to progress them beyond the Kumon International Standard (an international approximation of their school level) regardless of their starting point. Kumon welcomes students with special educational needs, gifted and talented children, and all those who believe they can achieve more and fulfil their potential.

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.

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.
