Abstract :

This article presents a study about the importance of affection and its influence on learning process in a theoretical view. It’s based on the method Kumon that exists for 100 years in Japan and more than 50 years in Brazil, the method works as an affective tool, helping thousands of learners to get over challenges and empty spaces provenients of the current school system. The main goal is not to find an unique answer but feed the search for these questions which should be always questioned. The main research was realized by ethnographic qualitative approach, with field researches and observing the students and the professionals from Kumon. My expectations about the method were all confirmed during my work in there working or reading about it on my academic work.
