About the Instructor

My name is Abraham Shem and I am the owner of, and Instructor at, Kumon Utawala Study Centre. I am a father of two and an entrepreneur and I am passionate about the success of children.
I have been in the education industry for more than ten years and am an alumnus of Kenyatta University where I got my formal educational training. I have three years’ work experience as an Assistant Instructor at the Kumon Kileleshwa Centre and I have been a private tutor with experience from different educational systems.
I believe education is key but what matters most is how to use the key that has been given to you.  How a person is trained and developed will influence how they will be able to use the key of education in life.  At the Kumon Utawala Study Centre we strive to not only nurture academic success, but also develop essential skills that our learners can take with them into their future and professional lives.

We took our 5 year old niece to the center three months ago as she was struggling with her verbal skills but especially her maths and had such a wonderful experience. The instructors are very patient, understanding and quite passionate about teaching. You know they are there for your child. Right from the enrollment, they were able to do an accurate assessment of the needs of my niece, and started her at a level where she was confortable enough but also challenged to learn more. I have seen her improve her verbal skills for the past three months. She is able to communicate better ( correct grammar) and even write coherent paragraphs. I was quite impressed with how quickly she improved her maths skills from struggling to do simple calculations to now three months later she is able to do division and multiplication. She is always looking forward to going for her in person sessions with Miss Justin who is an absolute delight. We are really grateful as a family for your dedication and would recommend anyone who really wants to see a great improvement in their child’s learning to this center. Thank you for the good job.

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 but 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.
