About our centre

Welcome to the Kumon Chatham, Walderslade Study Centre.

Established in 2002, the centre offers maths and English programmes to children of all ages and abilities. We have children attending from pre-schools, state and independent schools from across Medway including Chatham, Gillingham, Rainham, Rochester and Strood.

Similar to other tuition providers the Kumon programmes focus on essential academic skills, but we go one step further by developing a child’s independent study skills. These study skills have helped many of our students go on to perform well in their 11+ and entrance exams, and are essential for GSCE, A-level, university, employment and all other aspects of adult life. 

In addition to studying an appropriate amount of work at home on a daily basis, your child can attend the study centre up to twice a week where you will be kept informed of their progress.

Our experienced team offer support every step of the way, from our dedicated early learning area through to guidance on more advanced topics, and every stage in between.

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

Donna Wood

About your Instructor

My name is Donna Wood and I am the Instructor for the Chatham, Walderslade Study Centre.

I am delighted to be running a Kumon study centre and to bring the internationally renowned programme to the local area.

I became aware of Kumon through a colleague whose son had studied the programme and was delighted with his progress. Upon enquiring about Kumon, I found there was not a study centre in my area, and the nearest one had a waiting list. With my background in finance and a keen interest in education, I decided to train to become an Instructor.

I now run a thriving centre, with a tremendous and experienced team alongside me. Over the years I have seen so many children (including my own daughters) develop, gain self-confidence and achieve academic success through studying the programme.

Being a Kumon Instructor has been extremely rewarding and I look forward to helping many more students achieve their potential in the years to come.

I look forward to welcoming you to my centre.
 

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.
