Kumon, an international franchise with presence in over 46 countries, provides children in Ireland with after-school English and math tutoring. Over 4 million children are currently using the Kumon method.

What is the Kumon Method?

In 1954 in Japan, Toru Kumon developed the Kumon method of learning. He identified that children, who learned without being restricted by the prejudice of the teacher, for example not being given work that was at the ‘just right’ level for them, matured faster and further. By not limiting the capabilities of the students, he was able to help children climb in their educational lives. More importantly, by giving these children long-term skills for learning, they become successful in their adult lives as well.

The role of a Kumon franchise owner

Kumon franchise owners run their own study centres in low rental spaces such as schools, community centres and churches. As well as helping children to further develop their maths and English skills, they also help them to get into the routine of studying as well as build their confidence and self-belief. These are lifelong skills that will help children in school, further education and life in general.

What is the cost of a Kumon franchise?

Kumon franchisees are expected to invest between 3,500 and 6,000 Euros during the start-up period of their new business.

For this investment, Kumon franchisees are provided with all their teaching materials as well as thorough training in the delivery of the Kumon method. You will also receive marketing support to help you promote your business and professional development assistance to help you increase the number of students and retain existing students.

What we look for in a Kumon instructor

We are looking for responsible people who share our passion for teaching and are committed to helping children develop, and reach their potential, long term.

Kumon Instructors come from all walks of life: from being teachers and qualified tutors, to dedicated parents and successful business people.

Many of our Instructors had never considered becoming a franchisee before they encountered Kumon.
