Kumon, one of the leading after-school education providers in the UK, is today encouraging students and parents across the region to start the new term with a focus on education.
Craig Cook, the Brigg Kumon Instructor, is gearing up for a busy two months as the Kumon Free Trial period is generating an unprecedented response from parents in Brigg and the surrounding area.
He says: “We’ve already had a number of parents contact us to arrange an enrolment. People have been attracted by the idea of trying Kumon for two weeks before deciding whether to continue. It gives them an opportunity to have a taste and evaluate the Kumon English and maths programmes for themselves. After the two weeks if they choose to continue is up to them.”
The Free Trial runs from 1 September until 31 October 2011 and is totally free of charge and open to all children in the local area. Kumon offers individualised maths and English study programmes that are tailored to the needs of each child. Through daily practice and repetition, students build their confidence, improve their concentration and gain effective study skills that will enhance their future learning. Through Kumon, your child can develop an attitude to learning that enables them to overcome obstacles and succeed in life.
Alyson Smith mother of Kumon students, Leanne and Olivia says: “Kumon has become an integral part of our lives and one which I know has had a huge effect on the girls. We have seen them grow and develop in so many ways with Kumon. Their confidence has grown and they aren’t afraid to work hard. Kumon has taught them to try and try again and never give up. This is a key skill for life as far as I’m concerned and one that will mean they can go on to lead successful and happy lives.”
The Free Trial provides children with the opportunity to experience Kumon first-hand and also gives parents an insight into how the Kumon method can benefit their child, without any financial commitment. The offer applies to either or both subjects of English and maths, and is open to families who are new to Kumon, siblings of current students and those already on the programme considering a second subject.
The Kumon method of learning was developed in 1954 by Toru Kumon, both a parent and gifted teacher from Japan. Like any parent, Toru wanted the best education for his son and began devising a teaching method using worksheets in the core subject of maths. Soon word spread of the success of his method and now in 2011, there are approximately 58,000 students studying Kumon at more than 600 study centres across the UK and Ireland.
