About our centre

Kumon study aims to ensure that every child develops a love for learning. We offer maths and English study programmes to help students of any age or ability progress their skills and build key foundations for learning.

While traditional maths and English tuition can help students progress, Kumon goes one step further by helping each child develop self-learning skills, enabling them to tackle challenging work without relying on a teacher. Through daily worksheet study, students 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 Instructor will set work at the ‘just-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.

Shikha Gill

About your Instructor

Hello, I am Dr Shikha Gill, Instructor at the Kumon Castleknock Study Centre. I am a learning enthusiast with a Doctorate in Psychology and a proven track record with over a decade of experience in the education field in Ireland.

When I first came across Kumon, I was enthralled by the different approach it took, emphasising self-study, independence and helping children to develop both academic as well as general life skills.

At my centre, the team strives to facilitate children reaching their full potential and the highest level of confidence and ability in maths and English through Kumon’s strategically designed worksheets. The programme is planned and implemented individually for every child that joins the centre, ensuring that they each start at their ‘just-right’ level. Parents play a crucial role in this learning journey too, and I keep them informed at every step of the way.

I look forward to seeing you at the centre as we embark on your child’s Kumon journey and embrace the development and changes it can make in a young learner’s life.
 

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.
