My name is Kumarie Moopanar. I was introduced to Kumon by a friend and had the opportunity to work as an assistant at the Ballito Kumon Centre for more than three years. During this time, I grew to love the programme and saw how successful it is, how it develops the children’s skills and how confident they then become. I felt so blessed, excited and grateful when I had an amazing opportunity in early 2016 to take the Kumon Centre in Ballito over, and to embark on this new journey.

As an extensively trained, professional Instructor I serve as a mentor - a person who guides your children as they work through their worksheets. I previously worked in the financial sector in a well- known bank for 17 years, but my passion to work with children, to be involved in the education environment and to run my own business was often longed for. When I started working at Kumon I felt that this was the opportunity to achieve my dreams.

It has been a wonderful experience to mould so many young minds using the principles of the Kumon Method. My assistants and I strive to provide a friendly, caring and encouraging environment in which students can concentrate and nurture their study skills. With my direction, positive support and earnest desire to help children succeed, I know Kumon will help your child work to their full potential.

I have a very good understanding as to how to use the programme as an effective tool to empower students, interacting with them in such a way that they become independent, confident self-learners by guiding them and developing their ability in maths and English.

I truly believe that Kumon is the best investment a parent can make in their child’s education. It does not only focus on number conceptual development, mastering basic arithmetic or reading concepts or building a solid foundation, the Kumon Method also develops crucial life skills that can be used in all aspects of the child’s life. Examples of these life skills include: improving concentration, time management, task completion and showing the benefit of perseverance.

Many of the students that attend my Centre have passed their exams with distinctions. Together with Kumon and their committed parents, these students are learning and applying the discipline and work ethic that they are exposed to, which helps them with their studies. I find it extremely rewarding working with children and witnessing the improvement in their skills as they overcome many challenges to become independent self-learners.

I believe in my own continuous development and the benefits gained from exposure to different and new learning processes offered by Kumon, the children that are enrolled at my Kumon Centre themselves as well as my spiritual organisation.
