About the Instructor

As an extensively trained and certified professional instructor, I serve as a mentor who guides your children through their work while also providing direction, support and encouragement. I create an at-home study plan in addition to monitoring classroom assignments, and I emphasize the importance of accurately completing each assignment within a designated time frame. This has helped many of my students increase self-confidence, thus becoming more self-reliant. Like all Kumon Instructors, I have a true passion for education and an earnest desire to help children succeed.

Before becoming the instructor of the Kumon Math & Reading Center of East Palo Alto –Ravenswood, Kerman Kwok was a Kumon Parent for over 10 years; his son and daughter are still enrolled in the Kumon Program (in math and reading). Seeing how his children benefited greatly from Kumon, Kerman decided to become more involved by opening a new center in East Palo Alto in August, 2016. He firmly believes that each student has the potential to learn, grow, and develop, and he is committed to seeing each student succeed.

Kerman has a B.S. in Managerial Economics from the University of California, Davis; an MBA (Accounting) from California State University Fresno. He is also a Certified Public Accountant.
