About our centre

We offer Online Classes on the following days:

  • Tuesday 4pm - 6pm
  • Thursday 4.30pm - 6.30pm 

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.

Anne Prior

About your Instructor

My name is Anne Prior and I have been the Instructor of the Kumon Carrick-on-Shannon Study Centre since November 2012. I originally came across the Kumon programmes as a parent and thought it appeared to be a great opportunity for my own two children. I believe that the self-learning skills and confidence in their abilities it promotes will be of great benefit to them, not only in their school life but beyond.

My children started in one subject each and I was delighted with their progress. The only drawback was that the centre was an hour’s drive from home, so I decided to train as an Instructor myself.

I am delighted that I chose to be a Kumon Instructor. I have my own business, which brings many challenges at times, but I enjoy the planning and decision making, as well as the satisfaction of the growth and successes we have achieved.

I am pleased to say that along with my own two children, the first student to start with me still attends. As both a Kumon parent and Instructor, I have a very good insight into the challenges but more importantly, into the benefits the Kumon programmes offer our students.
 

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 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.

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.
