About this centre

Online Class available In-Centre Class available KUMON CONNECT available
In centre classes and online classes run on Wednesdays.

Kumon study aims to ensure that every child develops a love for learning. We offer maths and English programmes to help students of any age and ability to progress their skills and build key foundations for learning. Traditional maths and English tuition helps students progress, but Kumon goes one step further by helping each child develop self-learning skills, enabling them to tackle challenging work without reliance on a teacher.

Students complete daily worksheet study developing ability and fluency gradually over time, progressing in small steps and building confidence. They also visit their local study centre up to twice a week for guidance from their Instructor. Your child’s Kumon Instructor will set work at just the right level to challenge and keep them engaged, regardless of age or school year. This means that they can strengthen their key skills or progress beyond school grade level without restriction. Kumon offers a cost-effective and convenient way to help your child build strong English and maths skills for a successful future.

About the Instructor

Hello. I’m Christine, the Instructor at the Kumon Glenrothes Study Centre.

On completion of my teacher training, I took the opportunity to work as an English Language Assistant in Mannheim, Germany, for a year. I spent a further ten years in Germany working with Kindergarten – Grade six students in American Department of Defense elementary schools. After returning to the UK, I taught children from year 1 to year 7 for over 20 years before deciding to become a Kumon Instructor.

I believe that the Kumon Maths and English Programmes are well-structured, as each concept builds on the previous one, thus providing the solid foundation needed for academic success.

I believe that among the many benefits of studying each day are developing memory skills, reinforcing prior learning and the opportunity to learn from mistakes.

I’ve always enjoyed working with children and over the years have had many opportunities to see them grow and develop.

I realised then that, as a Kumon Instructor, I could make a difference to more children; treating each student as an individual, tailoring work to suit each student and helping them to achieve their potential.

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.
