I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Kumon (London, England) in May 2022
Interview
- Intial telephone interview to organise in person interview
- Filling out form at the centre with questions testing your understanding of Kumon and also checking your availability
- Completing basic maths test ( factorising, pythagoras and solving quads)
- Completing a trial session - marking student worksheets and helping them with difficult questions
- During the trial session the managers were extremely passive aggressive and there was a real lack of communication. I also disliked the way the children were talked to by them. Much of the trial consisted of marking worksheets.
Maths and English test followed by group tasks. you observe a video and they asked questions about how the children learn and what approach would work best for that child.
