History
Kumon was founded in 1958 by Toru Kumon, both a parent and gifted maths teacher. He created what is now the Kumon Maths Programme for his son Takeshi, to help him improve his ability.
Using these principles, our programme has expanded to develop English skills as well. Our team ensures the materials in our programmes are constantly improving and evolving, to make them as effective as possible.
Kumon still stands firm to Toru Kumon’s founding principle; to help as many children as possible excel academically and realise their potential.
