Mental Arithmetic and Abacus Tutoring Program

UCMAS helps children in their whole brain development, Abacus is used and the medium brought to use is arithmetic. It means we use Abacus for teaching our students mental arithmetic. Abacus, a tool that is used for making certain calculations like addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. A smart tool that initially started in Japan has been now adopted by all over the world. Reason being its ability to enhance the arithmetic skills of students as well as the overall brain development that it promotes.

We use the Japanese abacus Soroban to help children enhance and develop their arithmetic prowess. Having certain additional benefits it can help increase intuition, problem solving ability and mental endurance as well. We will talk about how it works and why it is so effective!

It’s Most Powerful and Efficient Tool

Beginning with Japan now this tool is used worldwide. It is the most effective and powerful tool that has been used to teach math to children. Eyes being exposed to soroban for long enough and with time there is no need for the tool and children can make the calculations mentally. Then there is no need for a soroban or calculator to do the calculations. This is what we try to imbibe in our pupils at the Mental Arithmetic and Abacus tutoring program, in Australia.

All About the Program

The first thing mental arithmetic and abacus tutoring program to mention would be that this allows a privilege of accessing the advantages of abacus math. It allows children to learn math in an exciting way that doesn’t seem boring at all. It is quite fun for children to be engaged in such learning activities that foster enhancement in problem solving skills and other overall brain development activities.

The age of a child is not what determines who can avail the advantages of this tutoring program. UCMAS helps children to develop their mental arithmetic skills. The ability to answer the questions with logical reasoning as well as with enhanced mental arithmetic skills is the advantage a child will imbibe through this tutoring program. With time the results will be seen in the calculating speed and accuracy in problem solving abilities which allows mastering the remaining subject matter and makes it an easy process.

There are countless benefits of building a strong foundation in mental arithmetic at a tender and young age. Practicing consistently allows the overall development of the brain and develops a certain amount of proficiency in a particular subject. It helps a child to understand the mathematical process of arithmetic. Making all the calculations inside your brain instead of taking help of a calculator, fingers or a pen and paper is what mental arithmetic skill is all about. With this a child will stop depending solely on memory and will utilize the overall brain functioning to make calculations in mind. With time this ability will prove as an advantage in the overall academic performance of a child.

Let’s Talk About Some Smart and Fun Methods UCMAS Makes Use of

Being aware that training children from a tender age could be a challenging job for most people, we at the UCMAS under the guidance and supervision of our expert and experienced teachers help understand about the child. It is imperative that a child does not feel burdened and pressurized under any circumstances. It’s said “Slow and steady wins the race “. Very rightly so, it’s what we practice.

Phase by phase we will see how a child is adapting to the method. Usually we may expect a child to learn to count in twos, threes, fours and so on while at stage 1. The other thing that will develop would be the ability to see improved multiplication and division abilities, addition and subtraction skills.

Then reaching the second stage a child would comfortably recite the multiplication tables one to twelve by fourth grade. Reaching the end of the year three digits integer calculations and a whole wide range of multi problem solving will be seen happening for them.

The Methods We Apply are Smart and Result Oriented

1. Flashcards for kids

You will find a lot of flashcards here that we use for smart and effective learning with children. Flashcards enhance memorization skills and problem solving abilities. It is fun as well as educational.

2. Numerical Patterns We Bring to Use

Using or introducing sudoku, numerical crosswords and arithmetic mazes are some excellent ways to discover the genius within a child. Students are made to look for items and numbers being repeated. This is a smart way to keep children engaged while learning.

3. Confronting them with Small Challenges

This is something they really enjoy .Give them a certain number of candies and then divide them by two, three or maybe four to let them find out how many they would have for themselves after calculating. It sounds fun and of course the reward is always there.

4. Games and Software

We also have certain gaming activities and software that are brought to use for the enhancement of the arithmetic skills of children.

There are a lot of tools and smart activities we bring into use. It definitely takes time and we should always give a lot of time to these little geniuses to flower to their fullest potential. It’s not a magical thing but a process that will certainly reveal the genius within your child.

TESTIMONIALS

Shreyas Dhisale

I completed UCMAS 8 levels in 5th grade. I did not go for grand level as i thought to go for abacus. I have a lot experience in UCMAS. Yes it builds your thinking period, Strategy Development, Time Management and most important Mentally solving skills. I do not say that the one who does not do UCMASdoes not aquire this skill. But the one who does has more accuracy and confidence . This are some pros mentioned above. This is really really great if you complete levels when you are kid say (2–5) grade. 1 grade student can to join it but he should know 1 to 10 tables .This sounds funny but I heard that time when mam told to some parents.

Khyati Garg

I have completed 7 termsinUCMAS. Due to my shifting to new place i was unable to complete the graduation in it. So I guess I can answer it due to my experience. Pros we all know that increases your speed and efficiency in calculation. It does improves the concentration. But some of its cons are actually for younger kids. Especially of smaller classes as they just complete their calculations through tricks used inUCMAS. So they use same things in their school level papers and just solve questions without solving it by proper methods and this affects their grades in school.

Apurva Lodha

I had completed UCMAS that makes me feel an era old. However, for statistics i may tell you there had been 10 levels and 2 grand levels which were all completed by me. The number of levels might have changed with time.
