Did you know that 15 to 20 minutes of Abacus practice each day can empower your child’s brain to a great extent? Yes, practice makes perfect - excellence in any field can be achieved through practice.
The Power of Practice
Practicing every day needs determination and hard work. Initially, when a child joins the Brainy Mental Arithmetic Course, there is more enthusiasm but with time it fades away and all that practice remains just confined to the classroom. Eventually, this slows down your child’s progress.
However, if parents and teachers can encourage and hand-hold a child for a few months it becomes a habit. Then, practising becomes just like any other daily chore. Expert says - practising requires people to get out of their comfort zone. The cycle of practice, getting feedback, making corrections and then practising again is the ultimate path to progress.
Why does more practice mean more power in Brainy Mental Math?
- Mental calculations are possible only with daily practice. Otherwise, a child cannot perform calculations mentally without the help of an abacus tool.
- Speed enhancement comes after a certain level of daily rigorous practice not initially.
- Accuracy can be achieved only if daily practice is timed and corrections are done on a regular basis.
- A child will be able to excel in state, national and international level competitions of Brainy with practice only.
- The difference between an ordinary student of Brainy and an extraordinary one is only PRACTICE.
Unlike other courses, Abacus practice requires just 15 to 20 minutes a day. A daily schedule with a 15-minute practice session will give brilliant results within a few months.
The skills learnt with Abacus Mental Arithmetic at Brainy are carried forward in different walks of life and a child excels at focussing on anything that comes their way as a natural progression.
What can be achieved with this everyday practice?
- Increased Concentration - This everyday practice of the abacus can help a child increase concentration. With regular practice and abacus training, the time span of focus and concentration gradually increases.
- Increased Endurance - This daily practice of 15-20 minutes on an abacus builds endurance in a child. They get empowered to stick up to a problem and solve it. Thereby, improving their patience level and preparing them for a better tomorrow.
- Strong Academic Foundation - A child with abacus training always develops a foundation that is strong enough to sustain all the academic challenges and stress. The ability to focus and work with deep concentration helps in all other subjects and makes him a real problem solver. With their photographic memory, they grasp things very quickly.
- Multitasking Abilities - Abacus Practice whether by themselves or at an abacus class nearby makes the child work on the tool every day. These children work with hand-eye coordination which stimulates the right brain. A child with this skill might do well in both sports as well as music and can excel in doing two tasks simultaneously.
- Open Doors to Great Career Options - STEM-related subjects have Mathematics as their working base. Moreover, hands-on, real-life experiments form the core of STEM education. Both these aspects are covered with Abacus Classes. Quick mathematical problem-solving skills are also required by competitive exams and that is definitely achievable with Abacus Training.
We at Brainy, understand how hard it can be to stick with daily practice - especially when it starts to get difficult. Children have to manage school, academics, sports and much more. That’s why our teachers and mentors believe in efficient and deliberate practice methods that not only help students learn faster but also help keep them highly motivated. This is evident in our quick session of 15 minutes of abacus practice daily to help empower your child’s brain in the long term.
Therefore, we always encourage our children to focus on their goals while practising. The results achieved that way are much more effective, well timed and they learn a lot faster.
