About the Center

Introduction

Welcome to the Kumon Math and Reading Center of Kailua Kona! We are located in the same building as the bowling alley (KBXtreme), but on the second floor. Feel free to call and schedule an appointment to check us out!

For more than 60 years, Kumon’s after-school academic enrichment program has helped children achieve success worldwide. We strive to instill in children the desire to achieve and the motivation to learn on their own. Whether your child is seeking enrichment, needs help catching up or is just beginning his or her academic career, Kumon is designed to help him or her develop a love of learning.

Students advance through the program at their own pace. Our emphasis on individualized learning helps your child become focused, motivated and self-reliant. We monitor each child’s progress to ensure comprehension before moving on to a new concept. With a strong academic foundation, critical thinking and problem solving abilities, your child has the potential to achieve whatever he or she desires.

The Kumon Math Program is a comprehensive curriculum that develops the necessary skills to help children progress from counting through calculus. Learn more information about the Kumon Math Program!

The Kumon Reading Program begins with basic phonics and progresses all the way through advanced reading comprehension. Learn more information about the Kumon Reading Program!

Job Opportunities

Assistant/Grader

  • Assistants should enjoy working with students. Individuals should be patient and fun-loving, yet able to multitask and juggle students simultaneously. Part of the job requires you to keep students focused on the task at hand and ensure they are completing their assignments properly. 

    Young students are very impressionable and may need more encouragement, so setting a good example of proper behavior and work skills is extremely important. Previous experience with students is desirable, but not required. Early Learner Assistants must be reliable and available to work Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays between 2:30 and 6:00pm. 

    Parents of Kumon children are offered a discount on tuition AND there is no requirement to work on weekends, or state and federal holidays. Please contact Ms. Sheri at 808-345-6354 or you can also email your resume to [email protected]
