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.

As a mother of four children and certified Kumon instructor for the past eight years, Aoi Fujiyama brings extensive insights as both a parent and an educator.  She completed her bachelor's degree in education from the Aoyama University in Japan and has resided in the McLean area for the past 25 years.
