Assistant (Former Employee) – Maidenhead, Berkshire – 21 November 2018
A typical day at Kumon is to assist students with their class work if they require it. A classroom supervisor is expected to record student marks on each session and ensure they have enough homework for the week.

Kumon Assistant (Former Employee) – Mirfield, West Yorkshire – 2 October 2018

Tiring after sixth form

Kumon Assistant (Current Employee) – Charlton – 12 February 2018
Kumon study centre is a great place to go to help you build work experience and feel the flow of the working environment. Kumon has helped me develop my teamwork skills and develop a more decisive decision making habit.
Good first part time job
assistant (Current Employee) – Harold Wood, Greater London – 2 February 2018
Liaising with parents and dealing with children of various abilities. Gave me good inter-personal skills and understanding of a work place. However communications between manager and co- workers in this instance needed much improvement.
Energetic and fun workplace due to the children.
Assisstant (Former Employee) – Winchester, Hampshire – 21 December 2017
I was only 15 so didn't get much responsibility, however being allowed to help children with work was a fun aspect of the job. Unfortunately only 4 hours a week due to only 2 kumon sessions.
Pros
Friendly staff
Cons
Few hours
nice working environment
Assistant (Current Employee) – Birmingham – 11 November 2017
I currently work at a Kumon centre where I have the responsibility of sorting out children's work and marking it. It is a lovely working environment and would recommend it to any young people who are looking for a part time job. I found this job very convenient during my A levels as it never clashed with exam season and management was always lenient if had to take a day off for an exam.
Great environment, although busy sometimes
Kumon Assistant (Current Employee) – Hayes – 7 September 2017
As a Kumon instructor for almost 2 years I have been able to witness the importance the centre has on the communities children. It offers many chances for the children to succeed during their primary education and if they need help the instructors are always there to help. During school days the centre is very busy and when understaffed it is difficult to attend to all the children.
Pros
Not too straining
Cons
Pay and short hours

small hrs and pay
Very good but sometimes wage doesn't feel enough
Kumon Assistant (Former Employee) – Birmingham, West Midlands – 26 August 2017
Good work ethic and atmosphere but very busy sometimes and wage doesn't reflect work.
Sometimes work is passed onto the newer employees and can be stressful
Management is very good and friendly

Great fun being able to work with children and knowing that what your doing is going to help them learn and understand more. Helps you learn and develop our own learning and understanding.
