PROGRAMS FOR CHILD EDUCATION

A recognized methodology by which children develop their memory, concentration and logical thinking through arithmetic – initially with abacus. Over time, the speed becomes faster and faster and the child begins to multiply, divide, add and subtract by heart, without the help of an abacus.

In the process of abacus classes activities, both hemispheres of the brain work simultaneously. Such activity stimulates harmonious intellectual development, improves memory, imagination and logical thinking.

Аbacus classes unfolds creative and analytical thinking, improves concentration, photographic memory, imagination, logical thinking, as well as observation and hearing skills. This isn’t just a mental calculation, because the ability to find answers to the most difficult tasks within seconds develops the right hemisphere of the brain, which is responsible for imagination and figurative thinking.

Аbacus classes activities help the child to master the school subjects better. First, the abilities related to memory, imagination, and thinking develop. Second, it helps to better understand the exact sciences: mathematics, geometry. And third, when your child learns to calculate quickly – they will know that they can learn everything, as long as they put in the effort!

The left hemisphere of the brain is responsible for the skills of calculation, speech and logic, and the right – for imagination and figurative thinking. A child whose cerebral hemispheres develop harmoniously can approach any task and problem from different angles, at an enviable speed.

Lessons are usually organized in a group of 4 to 10 children. Each course follows a common storyline. The teacher is fully engaged and emotionally presents the course material. The exercises alternate with interactive activities. Mobile activities and logic games are included.

Working at home is one of the main factors with impact on the outcome of classes. We recommend you to make sure that your child spends 15-20 minutes a day doing homework, abacus calculation (new topics) and mental calculation (passed topics).

To effectively master the program, the child should exercise at home for 15 minutes every day. For convenience in preparing and checking homework, we have developed an online platform for students and teachers. Using the online platform increases the speed and efficiency of learning by 40%.

Successful completion of the first level (S) is enough for participation. The tasks during the SmartyKids Olympiads are prepared according to the age and level of the children studying at the SmartyKids centres, so even for beginners it is an exciting experience. And how fun it is to meet and chat with children from all over the state or internationally, with the entertainment program and the very fact of participation! The motivation for learning and development remains for a whole year.
