For your child, the abacus will be the perfect tool for success.
Why Use an Abacus?
Mathematics is an abstract concept for children; numerous serious studies have shown that children aged 9 and under often struggle to visualize abstract concepts like math.
These difficulties can lead to anything from a simple aversion to arithmetic in mild cases to loss of confidence and academic failure, even among the most gifted children.
Using an abacus forces your child to visualize calculations and develop mental models that will support them throughout their schooling and beyond into adulthood.
The Abacus: An Ancient Tool Still Relevant Today.
Children who use the abacus in their learning generally show significantly higher IQ scores, even surpassing those using the most cutting-edge educational methods.
The Abacus Supports Users Beyond Mathematics.
Using the abacus enhances students' memory capacity in two ways. Firstly, students no longer need to memorize individual arithmetic solutions. Once they have learned the abacus, they know how to solve any calculation problem. There is no need to memorize specific answers or calculation steps, as the process remains consistent. Secondly, the abacus helps their memory by allowing them to clearly see how they arrived at an answer. By understanding how problems and numbers work, they grasp the mechanics of various exercises. Once a child knows how to solve a problem, they no longer need to hold answers in short-term memory.
Children naturally tend to memorize exercises rather than develop methods to solve them, which leads to rote learning without true understanding — a flaw not always obvious.
This issue is easily resolved with an abacus, which supports intuitive understanding of arithmetic.
From primary school through middle school and beyond, the abacus creates a reliable foundation for every student who uses it.
