Digital Kumon now available in New Zealand

The world’s best mathematics and English worksheets can now be studied digitally, on tablet via the KUMON CONNECT learning platform, at Kumon centres in Aotearoa.

KUMON CONNECT gives students the option of studying the same Kumon Mathematics and English programmes, with a stylus, tablet, and digital worksheets, instead of the traditional pencil-and-paper. KUMON CONNECT also digitises students study records, allowing parents and children to quickly and easily check details such as score, worksheet completion time and overall study progress.

Paper and tablet-based study are very similar

Vichhika, a parent from Auckland, enrolled both her children into paper-based Kumon to improve their mathematical abilities. Later on, she switched them over to tablet-based study with KUMON CONNECT. Vichhika believes that ultimately, KUMON CONNECT and paper-based Kumon are very similar.

“KUMON CONNECT and paper-based Kumon are not very different”, Vichhika says. “The only difference is the paper and the tablet: the way they study, and the worksheets they study, is all the same, which is good”.

Her 10-year-old son Jerry also says both paper and tablet-based Kumon have helped him to make great progress in his mathematics.

“With KUMON CONNECT, instead of taking your paper and your pencil and eraser to class, you use a tablet with a stylus”, Jerry explains. “It’s helped me to improve in maths and to improve a lot in school. Now I’m in the top group [at school for mathematics]”.

Maintaining a connection with your Instructor

KUMON CONNECT students continue to attend the centre twice-a-week, maintaining those real-life connections with their Instructor and centre assistants. Parents continue to support their children to complete their worksheets to the best of their ability. Kumon Instructors create an individualised study plan for students, assign the work they are ready to learn next through the app, and support students develop self-learning ability. They also provide parents with regular progress updates.

Disclaimer: KUMON CONNECT and screen time

For screen time, New Zealand Government guidelines recommend the following:

  • Children younger than 2 years old: no screen time
  • 2 years and older: no more than 1 hour per day.

For tablet usage, the World Health Organisation recommends the following:

  • For children between 2-4 years old, up to 60 minutes of screen time per day.

Tablet study with KUMON CONNECT is within the above recommended limits.

The Kumon Method is designed to help children of any abilities to progress to their maximum potential and develop their “self-learning ability”, an ability to learn independently.

Kumon caters to children as young as three years and is known for taking this unique, individualised learning approach. Through Kumon, many children have acquired academic excellence, good study skills and habits, and the ability to learn independently. These are achieved through the facilitation of Kumon Instructors.

Kumon Instructors are constantly learning from their students. By analysing students’ respective study records and completed worksheets, as well as observing their learning situation in each session, Instructors will provide students with the appropriate worksheets to enable them to study and advance independently. 

Regardless of whether they learn at home or the Centre, one of the most vital aspects of learning is keeping and maintaining the human connection made between Kumon students and Kumon Instructors.

KUMON CONNECT, a new digital way of learning, aims to bring children, parents, and Kumon Instructors closer together through frequent communication and close follow-up.

KUMON CONNECT is a self-learning program similar to the traditional method of doing Kumon with paper worksheets. It fosters a sense of self-assurance in children and their abilities and nurtures them with the skills to challenge the unknown.

With KUMON CONNECT, everything children need to study is on their tablets!

Kumon students write on the tablet with a stylus pen, just as they would write on the Kumon worksheets with a pencil. The Kumon Instructors can follow their students’ daily progress and provide timely feedback to motivate or advise them. Parents can also review their children’s study records anytime and connect with the Instructor to support their children’s learning experience. 

The goal of the Kumon Method remains the same – to ensure every student advances at an incremental pace without any learning gaps in their study.
