About The Position
Our Kumon Math and Reading Center is seeking a dedicated Center Assistant and Grader to join our team. This role is essential in our after-school learning program, which assists students from pre-kindergarten through high school in individualized math and reading studies. One of our primary goals is to foster self-learning within our students, and the Center Assistant plays a crucial role in achieving this. The responsibilities include developing knowledge of the Kumon method and worksheets, guiding and encouraging students, and grading classwork and homework to assess each student's abilities as they progress in their learning journey. As a Center Assistant, you will work efficiently and effectively with one or two younger or new Kumon students at a time, providing instruction through the utilization of the Kumon Method and worksheets. You will ensure that proper study habits and work skills are being developed and train the students in center routines.
