Our Program

What Your Child Learns at Kumon.

Kumon doesn't follow a fixed school timetable. Instead, every child progresses through carefully structured levels at their own pace — building mastery step by step, from the very foundation all the way to advanced mathematics

Addressing School Concerns

TEACHING IS THE SAME. LEARNING IS NOT.

Every classroom in Nepal has one teacher and thirty different children each at a different level of understanding, each needing something slightly different. That's not a criticism of teachers. It's simply the reality.

Teacher Reality
Students Reality
Not enough time for every student
“I don't understand”
Syllabus pressure — must keep moving
“This is too fast...”
Can't give individual attention to all
“This is too easy...”
“Our teachers already do enough.”
“I'm falling behind...”
Syllabus pressure + large class size = limited individual attention
Same teaching. Different understanding.

Kumon doesn't compete with classroom teaching. It completes it. Where the classroom moves forward, Kumon ensures no child is left behind — giving every student the individual attention their school simply cannot always provide.

Addressing School Concerns

UNDERSTANDING KUMON LEVELS

Kumon uses its own level system — not grade levels — because every child starts where they are, not where they're expected to be. Here is what each level group covers:-

  • Level 6A

    Kumon Math Level 6A helps young learners recognize and recite numbers from 1 to 30. Students practice tracing and writing numbers 1 to 10 while developing fine motor skills. This level builds a strong foundation for future math concepts like addition.

    • Reciting numbers: Up to 50
    • Familiarity with numbers 1–30
    • Pencil skills and line tracing
    • Number recognition and writing practice
  • Level 5A

    Kumon Math Level 5A strengthens number recognition and writing skills for numbers 1 to 30. Students develop confidence in reading and tracing numbers through repetitive practice. This level ensures mastery of basic numeracy before progressing to arithmetic operations.

    • Reciting numbers: Up to 50
    • Number reading exercises
    • Familiarity with numbers 1–30
    • Pencil skills and line tracing development
  • Level 4A

    Kumon Math Level 4A focuses on number tracing exercises that reinforce number formation and recognition. Students practice writing numbers repeatedly to develop muscle memory and precision. This level prepares learners for the transition to basic addition.

    • Number tracing exercises
    • Number writing exercises up to 10
    • Fine motor skill development
    • Building confidence with numerals
  • Level 3A

    Kumon Math Level 3A introduces basic addition concepts using numbers up to 10. Students learn to add through visual representations and simple equations. This level marks the beginning of computational math skills that form the foundation for all future arithmetic.

    • Numbers up to 100: Parts 1–6
    • Introduction to addition
    • Adding single-digit numbers
    • Building arithmetic confidence
  • Level 2A

    Kumon Math Level 2A develops addition skills with numbers up to 10. Students practice various addition combinations to build fluency and speed. This level strengthens mental calculation abilities and prepares learners for more complex addition with larger numbers.

    • Adding 4: Parts 1 & 2
    • Adding 5: Parts 1 & 2
    • Adding 6 and 7: Multiple parts
    • Adding 8, 9, and 10: Parts 1–3
How Progress Works

HOW STUDENTS ADVANCE — MASTERY, NOT JUST COMPLETION

Kumon's advancement system is built around one principle: a child moves forward only when they have genuinely mastered the current level. Here's exactly how that works:

200
Worksheets per level
Organized in sets of 10 pages (e.g., A 1–10, A 11–20...)
15–20
Worksheets per day
Most students, depending on age and ability
2–3
Months per level
At the recommended pace — faster with consistent mastery

Students advance when they demonstrate all of the following:

  • Accuracy

    Consistently correct work

  • Completion Time

    Work done within recommended time

  • Understanding

    Clear grasp of concepts and problem-solving

  • Consistent Performance

    Maintaining quality every day

  • Independent Learning

    Ability to work independently with confidence

Important for Parents

Progress in Kumon is not based on age, grade, or time spent. Students move forward when they have mastered a skill — ensuring that learning gaps are addressed before new concepts are introduced.

School Alignment

GRADE-BY-GRADE CURRICULUM ALIGNMENT

Below is how Kumon's program aligns with what your child is learning at school — grade by grade. Each grade shows the curriculum areas covered, the specific topics your child will work on, and the corresponding Kumon levels.

Grade-by-grade detail is being finalised and will be published here shortly.
