The typical week of a Kumon franchisee

Our franchisees develop each and every child to study advanced material using our Kumon worksheets. One could say they are similar to a coach or a mentor for children's education.

Our recommendation is to put as much time as possible into growing your business, both during and outside of centre hours. As a general rule, Kumon franchisees can keep their own hours and are able to work around family commitments. For candidates with young families, we suggest keeping in mind that Kumon centres operate from about 3.30 - 7.00pm in the evening.

Each new Kumon centre is required to open four days per week in a commercial venue. Candidates should be available during these hours in order to be considered. Some existing centres are currently open two days per week. These centres will change to four days upon take over by a new franchisee.

In addition to centre opening hours, Kumon franchisees allocate time to preparing students' work for class. This may take longer in the first year, as experience is gained. There are also many opportunities for professional development including monthly seminars, ongoing training, and working with consultants to develop the business. It will also be necessary to study various levels of worksheets in the first year. This could take up to a month of full working days.

Below are some videos of our franchisees describing what a typical week is like for them:
