Kumon Assistant Instructor

For more than 60 years, Kumon’s after-school academic enrichment program has helped children achieve math and reading success worldwide. With Kumon centers in over 45 countries and over 1,500 Kumon centers in North America alone, Kumon builds an individualized program for students of all ages and abilities to build life-long skills necessary to succeed beyond the classroom. Unlike a tutoring program, Kumon's goal is to develop independent learners with good study skills and who have the readiness to accept challenges.

We are a small team looking for energetic candidates who will adapt to Kumon’s scientifically proven method of helping children of all ages excel through to high school level math and reading. (Kumon kids younger than 2nd grade have done Calculus. Our program can get them there.)

· Promptness and timeliness.

· Ability to multi-task student questions, grading, and other tasks.

· An enjoyment of education.

· The ability to be hereon Monday and Wednesday from 2pm to 6pm, and Tuesday and Thursday from 3pm to 7pm.

Here, we work as a team to provide the perfect environment for students to learn how to be self-sufficient, self-motivated, and build their confidence. In order to reach this ideal state, our staff may have many duties, including:

· Grading students' classwork and homework (both Math and Reading subjects.)

· Working with students ages 3 – 7 in completing assignments.

· Guiding students through challenging problems, while encouraging them to solve the problems on their own.
