About this centre

Online Class available In-Centre Class available KUMON CONNECT available

The Kumon Skipton Study Centre was established in 2002 and has been run by the current Instructor since 2010. The Kumon Maths and English Programmes pursue the potential of each child by developing confident, independent learners through individualised, advanced study.

Students can attend classes once or twice a week. All students are given their own time slot. In the classroom, new students and early learners work with class assistants to develop good study skills, before moving on to work more independently.

Students can choose to study paper-based worksheets or use the newly developed KUMON CONNECT APP on their own tablet. Students studying on the KUMON CONNECT APP can be closely monitored daily by the instructor every day!

We also offer Zoom classes for students who cannot attend the centre. When starting Kumon, your child will have a detailed assessment in maths or English and a study plan will be developed, allowing them to build on their current skills, further their knowledge and excel both inside and outside the classroom.

About the Instructor

Instructor Diane Bayliff of the Skipton centre

My name is Diane and I am the Instructor at the Skipton Study Centre.

I have have been teaching maths to children and adults for almost 20 years. As a parent of three children who are now at University, I am passionate about education.

The Kumon method of learning helps children to thrive. Many of the students at my centre are working above their school grade. Kumon can help children to develop their potential in maths and English and become confident individuals. My role as a Kumon Instructor is extremely enjoyable and rewarding. The most fulfilling part is seeing the children grow in ability and confidence in class but also finding out from parents that they have made huge progress at school or are simply much more confident! I have seen many children make amazing progress with Kumon. Kumon is for children of all ages and abilities. Because the Kumon method is so individualised, they can all make rapid progress. I am immensely proud of the progress that my students have made.

I look forward to welcoming you to the Skipton Study Centre. Please don't hesitate to get in touch for further information.

My daughter has been doing Kumon for over 2 years and it’s really helped her. She’s developed her basic maths and English skills which has built a really stable foundation for her with all of her school work. She’s able to do quick maths mentally really well, understands how to calculate fraction problems, long division and much more. As well as worked on spelling, comprehension, punctuation and grammar. She really enjoys working with Diane who approaches teaching in a kind and gentle manner which means she never complains about going to class twice a week or daily learning. I believe Kumon has actually helped my daughter to attain a high level where she’s working above her class level to pass her recent 11 plus exam for the school we want her to go to which is an amazing achievement. If you think your child could benefit from keeping up with learning, especially if taking a break means they forget working methods, then Kumon is something you should consider for your child.

My daughter was struggling with Maths and I felt she had missed the basics in her early years. She needed to go back to the beginning to understand fully, so the day I discovered Kumon was a joyful day! She has improved so much in both Maths and English in just 9 months. I would definitely recommend Kumon as it instils fundamental principles by repetition which is exactly what she needed. Diane is an excellent educator, organised, firm, fair and very kind. I am so pleased I found Diane and Kumon.

we started kumon just over a year ago, and wow what an experience it has been my son was in a lower year two class he was struggling to read and write. We started of english kumon to begin with and a whole later when in year three he has now been moved into class with all the children his age as is working at the same level. Kumon has helped not only with his reading and writing but his confidence and behaviour has improved so much cant recommend kumon enough. We started doing maths a few months ago aswell as english and i'm seeing massive changes already. If your child is struggling kumon really works the repetitiveness of the work is what really works. His tutor Diane is a god send. Wish i'd started it earlier!!

We were recommended Diane and Kumon following our son's bumpy start to Year 6. He wasn't finding the transition easy and was behind his peers in both academic ability and maturity. Fast forward 4 months and the change (in his teachers words) has been incredible. I thoroughly believe the improvement in school is entirely down to Kumon. I firmly believe the skills he is learning now, he will take with him to secondary school and beyond.

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.
