Kumon Walmer

My name is Fatima Jina.
I was first introduced to Kumon in 2004, when my nieces enrolled into the program. I watched them excel not only in understanding, but also in work-skills and attitude towards their studies. They were able to take on new school work with confidence and maturity beyond their years and excel in all aspects of their school and university careers.
 
I have a BCOM (Informatics) degree and a Post-Graduate Certificate in Education. I have taught and tutored Math for many for over a decade, and have always been passionate about making a positive difference to my students and seeing them improve and develop.
 As a teacher, I realised that many students struggled to grasp basic concepts, not due to a lack in their ability, but instead because of the syllabus overload (squeezed into the year) and the fact that each child develops differently at their own pace.
In order for positive change to occur, their journey needed to be tailored according to their specific needs. But this unfortunately, could not be fostered within a mainstream classroom setting.
I recommended The Kumon programme to some students and soon saw the enormous benefits it had on those who had enrolled.
It can be no surprise then, that I myself am a Kumon parent.  I saw first-hand, the incredible impact Kumon had on my own children in making them confident, independent, logical problem-solvers, who can easily tackle any challenges they are given. Kumon struck the balance of not over-exerting them, but still adding a challenge to keep them engaged.

So, when the prospect arose for me to become a part of this wonderful Kumon family, I embraced, with open arms, the opportunity to discover and unlock the unlimited potential of students of all ages and abilities.
