In March 2020, Kumon Instructors throughout Ireland and the UK coped remarkably when centres were, almost overnight, required to close their doors due to the outbreak of the pandemic. Many immediately took on the unfamiliar challenge of running classes online.

Online study turned out to be so successful over the subsequent months that many Kumon Instructors have decided it’s here to stay. For families wishing to enrol at Kumon, the choice is now often very much theirs – online classes via Zoom from home, or in-person classes with their Instructor at the Kumon centre.

Many parents considering enrolling their child in Kumon have the same question: “I don’t want to overload my young child, but equally I want to give them the best possible head start…So what’s the best age to begin Kumon?”

At Kumon, we believe that, essentially, the sooner children can begin, the better. Here we discuss the reasons we believe an early start is important.
