   We turned to Kumon when we were concerned with our son's school report at the end of December 2024 as he was due to sit his GCSE exam in May 2025. The team at Northampton South applied the Kumon approach and helped our son achieve grades in Maths, English Language Literature which enabled him to get his choice of subjects for A-levels. We could not thank Kumon enough for all their support and guidance.

   My daughter has done Kumon lessons for several years now. It has improved her Maths, English and spellings a great deal. I am very pleased with her academics over the years and I attribute a lot of it to Kumon. Miss Shweta gives regular feedback and progress plan, she is always available to discuss my daughter’s progress and any concerns. Shweta genuinely cares about the success of her students and this makes it easy to approach her on anything. I really can’t recommend Kumon enough.

   I'm so grateful for Kumon’s English and Maths programs—both of my daughters have shown amazing improvement under with Instructor Shwetha. She is patient, encouraging, and creates a structured, supportive learning environment that keeps them motivated and focused. My older daughter now enjoys reading and expresses herself more confidently, while my younger one has become much stronger in maths and approaches her work with enthusiasm. We're truly happy with their progress and highly recommend Kumon with Shwetha to other parents.

   This Kumon centre is so professional and caring for all its students. Shweta takes extra care in assessing the correct level, the children should start on and makes sure they consistently build up from that level on. The help and support both my kids have received has shown them, how hard work pays off. They are both excelling in Maths and English. Highly recommend if you want your children to start loving the journey of learning.

   The Kumon center, situated near Grangepark Northampton, is exceptionally professional and dedicated to its students. The staff is warm, welcoming and eager to assist. The assistance and support my son received demonstrated the value of hard work. The lessons cover the fundamentals to facilitate understanding in the classroom. This provided my son with the confidence he needed to excel in school. I would highly recommend this if your child requires that extra assistance.

   We Joined our 7 years old daughter in early 2021. Since then we noticed a positive change in her English learning (though it is very low phase). After a year now her learning improvement has taken exponential projectile. Also he has got a habit of spending 30-45 min for the homework everyday, which is not the case with her day to day schooling routine. I will definitely recommend Kumon for the Early learners!! Also Berta is a brilliant and strict instructor. Best Regards, Raj.

   Jaymin has made excellent progress in maths since we enrolled him onto Maths Kumon four years ago. At the beginning, motivating Jaymin to complete daily worksheets was hard work and there were many a times I felt like we should just quit, as sometimes I felt that it wasn’t worth the hassle and the constant nagging everyday to get him to complete the worksheets. But now, I am so glad we persevered, completing his maths worksheets has become part of his daily routine which he completes before he starts school every day without any fuss! He even marks the worksheets himself using the answer book provided and completes the corrections. Jaymin has definitely gained more confidence in maths since starting Kumon and this year we were overjoyed when we celebrated his success at achieving the bronze level at kumon. I am so grateful I found this programme and in particular Berta. Berta has encouraged and guided Jaymin over the years to always work hard and never give up. She has seen him develop into the self disciplined boy he is today. Berta has got to know Jaymin very well over the years and knows what drives him and was able to identify his key strengths and weaknesses and uses this to help him with his kumon. For all of you parents, wondering whether to give Kumon a try, I would personally would strongly recommend that you do, but remember not to give up at the first hurdle, keep going as it will definitely be worth it.

   When my daughter finished Reception in July 2019, I noticed her maths skill wasn't great. So I looked for private tution and she joined Kumon in maths in September 2019. For thr first few months, probably like most children, she got frustrated and ended up in tears. I started to ask myself:" Is Kumon right for her?" I talked to Berta and she explained Kumon development wasn't quick and it was a long-term plan. She encouraged me to give her more time. So my daughter didn't stop then and carried on her Kumon learning. Surprisingly my daughter's concentration got better slowly and she finished her work daily and her mental skill got much better! She started her English in June 2021 and her hand-writing and comprehension have been a lot better since then. Generally school work is now easier for her. Thank you Berta for setting up work and up-dating my daughter's progress and identifying weak areas. I am so glad my daughter didn't stop Kumon after first few months and I regreted I didn't let her start English earlier! Looking forward to a further Kumon learning journey with Berta. If any parent asks me about Kumon, I would say it is not easy for both child and parents. But if you would like your child to do well in academy, Kumon is a great way to achieve solid foundation! Both child and parents' hard work will pay off!!

   My children have been attending Kumon classes since June 2019. Our first initial appointment with Berta was carried out very professionally. Berta gave lots of information for us to help make the desicion to love forward with Kumon. Since then both our children have flourished. When my daughter started school August 2019 you could see from only a few months of Englisg Kumon work that it had a real benefit, she continues to excel with her reading and English and due to starting Maths Kumon early 2020 his becoming more confident with her maths work also. The difference this has made to our 9 year old son is tremendous, he is becoming more confident with his English and understands more about the comprehension side of English and it has also done wonders for his hand writing, he also started Maths in 2020 and continues to grow in confidence. I would highly recommend Berta if anyone asks, she is very approachable and will help and encourage not only the children but also the parents. I can't thank her enough for encouraging both my children and myself to get them to where they are today. All I have left to say is a massive THANK YOU and we look forward to continuing our Kumon journey together.

   Initially I was a bit sceptical about Kumon, I thought it was just worksheets that the children do daily but it is so much more! Kumon helps the children build discipline, understanding and motivates them to do better. My Son, Ethan, joined Kumon during Year 5 and has been going to Kumon for 18 months now. He enjoyed maths at school and although he wasn’t struggling he didn’t find it particularly challenging and lacked the commitment and motivation to do better. Berta identified his strengths and weaknesses and has pushed him to do better and set a challenging but achievable pace for him to work at. Under Berta’s guidance Ethan passed his Kumon level G and achieved a silver award and is now working through Level H. I am really pleased that he has reached such a level before starting secondary school and I am sure he will continue to rise to the challenges Berta sets and push himself further. Joining Kumon has had such a positive impact on my children I would highly recommend Kumon to any parent. Thank you Berta for all your patience and time and dedication, keep up the good work!
