About our centre

The centre which was established in 2013. The venue is easily accessible from both Coventry Road and Hob Moor Road.

The unique Kumon Maths and English Programmes pursue the potential of each child by developing confident, independent learners through individualised, advanced study. We have been privileged in that time to help develop students of all ages and abilities using the Kumon Method of Learning.

Students currently range in age from three to 16 years old, and are supported in their learning by a well-trained team of up to nine assistants and the Instructor. The class is a focused learning environment with an emphasis on the development of each students’ study skills, independence and resilience in order to take full advantage of their learning at all stages of their learning journey.

This study centre is proud to offer KUMON CONNECT. Click here for more details.

About your Instructor

My name is Saika Ismail and I am the Instructor at the Small Heath Study Centre. I was a science teacher and subsequently Head of Science in the secondary sector with experience of teaching to A level standard and an examiner for 20 years. Having achieved a master’s degree in Education, my passion for teaching grew.

I was so impressed by the structure of the Kumon programmes that I decided to enrol my son. I saw him grow in confidence with each month of study and become more motivated and focused to learn independently. As he matured, he became less reliant on his class teachers and saw himself as a successful student. His achievements motivated me to become a Kumon Instructor.

I watch students develop their stamina, speed and accuracy in the context of the Kumon Maths and English Programmes. The light bulb moments where a student is able to resolve a difficult question or when the students report back “I think that’s so easy now” is a big achievement.

I feel so fortunate to be able to offer Kumon to so many local students and watch them develop and grow through the programmes, just as my own child has done - I actually can’t think of anything that is more satisfying professionally.

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.
