About this centre

It has the best instruction that helps to discover the potential of students who are able to contribute meaningfully to the global community. The centre caters for students of all ages and abilities. Available at the centre is a waiting area for parents/guardians to sit while waiting for their child and ample parking space for clients. 

About the Instructor

My name is Kedibonye Jacobs. I have been in the learning environment since 1998. I have exposure to several secondary schools and students of different abilities who come from diverse walks of life and culture. As a teacher I always wanted to see students perform to their level best and excel while enjoying their studies. My experience as a teacher drove me to find a way of making students enjoy their studies while learning. Kumon study program offers this opportunity and enables students to learn more at ‘THEIR JUST RIGHT LEVEL’. The most rewarding element of my role as an instructor is when I see a student excelling, graduating and becoming an independent individual who is able to sustain oneself and give back to the community.

Popular Questions

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 extra lessons 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.
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.
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.
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.
