CONNIE SCHMIDT KIRMAN

Passion for Education

Connie Schmidt Kirman has been a certified Kumon Instructor since 2008. Her passion is to help children develop to their full potential while finding a love of learning in the process. Ms. Connie has an interest in helping students develop skills beyond math and reading with the Kumon Method. She enjoys developing strong study skills that will impact her students for years to come.

Ms. Connie started her career working for several international companies in the areas of operations and marketing before becoming interested in higher education and professional development. She worked for The College of New Jersey in the Office of Graduate Studies as Assistant Director where she enthusiastically worked to promote programs for teachers both domestically and internationally. She organized international education institutes for Lehigh University for several years.

Branching out from adult education to taking over the Kumon Center of Howell sparked a passion in not only math and reading, but the study skills that support all learning. Connie continually studies the impact of soft skills on student development and has co-taught study skills courses for teens.

A keen interest in learning and helping children develop strong mental health skills led her to become a Certified Brain Health Coach through Amen Clinics. Ms. Connie earned a Bachelor of Science in Management with an International Certificate from The College of New Jersey (Magna Cum Laude and Second Academic Honors in Management), a master’s in business administration from Monmouth University and is a certified Kumon Instructor.

Ms. Connie completed the requirements to be a Certified Brain Health Coach through Amen Clinics in March of 2019.
