About this centre

KUMON CONNECT available In-Centre Class available
For more than 60 years, the Kumon Maths and English Programmes continue to provide students with the tools they need to enjoy learning. This is not primarily through teaching but through self-learning. Our goal is to develop confident, independent, and advanced learners who rise to the challenge of new work. We don’t just want students to be good at maths and English, we want them to become self-sufficient, preparing them for personal and professional success later in life.

Kumon students develop fundamental study skills which enable them to reach an advanced level of study, often far beyond their school curriculum. We are not limited by age or curriculum, so students can progress to the next level at their own pace. Upon enrolment, each child will go through an initial assessment to ensure the work set is at just the right level for them. Through daily worksheet study, Kumon students develop ability and fluency.

Our individualised study programmes are for students from pre-school all the way up to A-level. Your child will attend the centre either once or twice a week depending on whether they will be studying both the maths and English programmes or one of the two.

About the Instructor

Instructor Shaofeng Liu of the Kumon Reading, Whitley Study Centre
My name is Shaofeng Liu and, for the past five years, I have had the privilege of serving as a Kumon Instructor. In that time, I have been able to help hundreds of students achieve their maximum potential with the Kumon Maths and English Programmes, and have seen many students progress academically ahead of their school year group by 6-24 months.

My time at Kumon has been characterised by a deep commitment to fostering academic excellence and a passion for nurturing the potential of every student who walks through our doors. As a Kumon Instructor, I have worked with students of various ages and abilities, tailoring my Instruction to meet their unique needs and learning styles. I love my role and aim to make the centre as welcoming as possible to everyone.

I have considerable experience with early-years students and helping children with learning difficulties overcome their personal challenges to enable them to learn in a caring and supportive environment.

In recent years, my students have seen particular success when studying with me as they prepare for their 11+ examination.

I look forward to meeting with you and sharing the incredible results Kumon can provide with your family too!

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.
