About our centre

The Cyncoed Study Centre has been supporting students in the areas of Cyncoed, Lakeside, Pontprennau, Pentwyn, Llanedeyrn, St Mellons, Lisvane, Llanishen and further afield, for the past 15 years.

Our aim at Kumon is not merely to encourage students to high academic ability through our maths and English programmes, but to instil confidence and independence, born of solid foundations and excellent study skills, which will benefit them throughout all their studies and beyond. 

With carefully trained and DBS checked staff, many of whom have completed the Kumon programmes themselves, we guide students with care and attention to their individual needs.

Our students range in ability from high-flyers who wish to be stretched further, those who want to brush up their existing skills and become more confident at school, and those with special needs and preschoolers. We can cater for all as each student's study is individualised, based on their own requirements.

Walking into a class, you may find three-year-olds being taught individually, a student practising their motor skills, someone practising their reading or times tables and several students working independently in the main body of the classroom.

About your Instructor

Following a long and successful career in the civil service, I pursued a childhood dream by going back to university to retrain as a science teacher. I taught in primary schools both locally and in the Vale until, 17 years ago, when I started looking around for something different.

I attended a Kumon information meeting in Bristol, and that's where it all began! After training I opened my own Kumon study centre in  September 2001.

Convinced, after only a few months, of how Kumon was benefiting my students, I gave up teaching on the side for the local authority, and moved my centre to Cyncoed.

I am still in touch with my very first student, a very shy, autistic student of seven years, he is now a successful self-employed professional photographer. His mother, a teacher herself, maintains that it was Kumon which gave him the self-confidence to succeed.

Frequently Asked Questions

Both, and every child in between. This is because of our individualised approach to education, which always asks the question: "What is best for this individual child?" Following a diagnostic test, a study plan is set to develop the ability of the child and to progress them beyond the Kumon International Standard (an international approximation of their school level) regardless of their starting point. Kumon welcomes students with special educational needs, gifted and talented children, and all those who believe they can achieve more and fulfil their potential.

Kumon is a self-learning programme with each student receiving regular support from their Instructor. The carefully developed worksheets teach students how to find the answer for themselves, whilst their Instructor offers guidance when necessary. The key role of each Kumon Instructor is to observe their students working, either in the centre or their online class, making sure that work is set at the right level and that they are developing at the right pace.

Kumon offers much more than tutoring and differs from traditional teaching in the classroom. Rather than preparing children for a particular test or assessment, Kumon empowers students to learn for themselves, through individualised instruction and carefully developed worksheets.

As well as developing key skills in maths and English, each Kumon student will work towards building their independent learning skills and confidence in their own abilities. This means that a Kumon student will not be dependent on – or limited by – the skills and knowledge of others.

As a global programme, Kumon does not follow a school curriculum, but rather is complementary to curricula across the world. The primary aim of the Kumon Method is to develop independent learning skills. These independent learning skills enhance the students’ performance right across the school curriculum. Kumon operates at exactly the right level for each student – regardless of their age – ensuring that work set extends and develops their skills, confidence and ability.
