| Age to start Learning |
4 to 13 years old |
| Teaching materials used |
10 level x 21 books of "professional metal arithmetic"
|
| Objective of learning |
To promote the development of both the left and right brain of a child, so as to boost the potentials of his thinking, imagination, confidence, creativity, memory and connection Through complete training process at an early age. |
| Designing of courses |
- Innovative teaching method:
Improvement from the traditional mental arithmetic teaching method. Mechanize or objective teaching methods were being replaced by thinking developing teaching materials, a perseverance and interest, and lowering his sense of frustration.
- Boost Potentials:
Enhances the development of brain power and related training through visual and sense of touch to design related training like creativity, memory and response.
- Atmosphere:
Games in groups to replace dull and monotonous atmosphere.
- Interacting teaching method:
A breakthrough from the conventional teaching method. The emphasis is on the interaction between the instructor and student, this will help instructor to understand the student strength and weakness in order for instructor to guide and develop the student weakness this could be easily accomplished. |
Example: 35 + 26 = 61

the numbers are imported into the
brain
|
Power of response - perform the two ways exchange of numbers and the beads quickly.
Power of judgment – choose suitable movement and technique.
Power of analysis – choose a way to solve the question instantly.
Power of imagination – insert an abacus into the brain.
Power of memory – memorize every process in the mental calculation chart.

The Effect of Mental Arithmetic.
The continuous practice of mental arithmetic will have the following result:
1. Revolutionize tradition mathematic.
The special skills learned will enable students to perform calculation with amazing speed and accuracy.
2. Improve student reactions.
The finger manipulation techniques stimulate both the left and right sides of the brain and improves interaction between the mind and body.
3. Optimum exploitation of the human brain resources.
Scientists and researchers have found that human only uses 1/10 of its brain's potential most of the time. Mental Arithmetic skills help us tab the vast treasures i the brain. It also helps students to overcome obstacle during the learning process.
4. Build up students' confidence.
After attending the well planned and interesting lessons in mental arithmetic classes, students will develop the confidence to challenge any form of figures, also solving of numbers is made interesting and enjoyable.
5. Improve students' concentration and absorption powers.
Mental Arithmetic not only develop students' interest in arithmetic but also train them to be more persistent, thus improving their concentration level and absorption power.
