Imagine clocking in each day knowing you'll witness breakthroughs. So many former executives, managers, and professionals have discovered something remarkable: helping kids succeed is the most rewarding work they've ever done. The quiet student who starts speaking up. The "math-hater" who begins loving challenges. These victories happen in Kumon centers nationwide, led by franchisees who chose purpose over paychecks.

Darshana – Kumon Instructor in Texas: Kumon Connect's launch a year ago brought the work of Kumon into the digital space, and it continues to make a big impact with our Instructors: “Kumon Connect has definitely made observation much more manageable. I can review student progress at my own pace and at any time of day, without having to be constantly present in the classroom and trying to keep track of every student simultaneously.”
