UCMAS MATH LEGO AND MENTAL AEROBICS:
ABOUT UCMAS:
The first UCMAS Centre opened its doors in 1993 in Malaysia based on the simple premise: Provide quality “Abacus and Mental Math Training” to children in the age group of 4-13 years and help them “Discover the Genius Within”
Legions of students registered for this program and over the years UCMAS developed as an International concept offering this wonderful program, world wide, across 6000+ centers in 75+ countries! UCMAS (Universal Concept Mental Arithmetic System) – an ISO 9001:2008 certified course, is a unique child development program that was founded in Malaysia by Dr. Dino Wong. Universal Concept Mental Arithmetic System – UCMAS started its operations in North America in the year 2004 and has currently about 70 locations across the network. With over 30,000 students registered across these centers and approximately 600 Course Instructors trained, UCMAS is now a brand to reckon with. About the Concept
The UCMAS program is based on the ancient, simple but powerful Abacus tool that provides countable beads for children to visualize numbers. Children learn to manipulate those beads to perform arithmetic calculation such as addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. Later, they move on to mental calculations where they develop the ability to picture the abacus in their minds and calculate quickly. The crucial concept of visualization or thinking in pictures leverages the right brain and leads to dramatically higher levels of speed, efficiency and accuracy. The UCMAS program incorporates and enhances Auditory, Visual and Kinesthetic/Tactile learning styles in each child. It fosters active learning and activates key cognitive functions such as memory, attention, perception, focus and reasoning. This improves their confidence and self-esteem and helps children become motivated leaners – the best route to success in academics and beyond. Curriculum
UCMAS combines an ancient teaching tool – the Abacus – with modern instructional expertise to stimulate child development and whole brain development while promoting learning and math in particular, as fun and exciting. Our time-tested curriculum is built on years of global experience and successful results. At the same time, we constantly update our programs and teaching methods to ensure that UCMAS offers the most effective learning experience for our students. Reputation
UCMAS has an established reputation and expertise in the industry that has earned us the loyalty of our parents worldwide for almost two decades. That reputation is built on a track record of trusted performance, a philosophy of inspiring our students to strive and excel and high-level customer-care for our students and their families. MATH TUROING:
Cut study time in half and get twice the results! We work with students from Grade 1 through university, in a quiet classroom setting we specialize in statistics and probability. About the Teacher:
I Mrs. Cecilia Fernando hold a Master of Philosophy in Mathematics with 20 years of tutoring experience I apply Vedic math techniques in higher levels, I have a huge passion for teaching mathematics. It is a subject I feel entirely confident in, and this reflected in my ability to teach in a simple, yet highly effective manner to cater for students of all standards and abilities. Over the years, I have built up extensive experience that has given me a variety of different teaching styles I can quickly draw upon to meet the needs of my students and pupils. I have excellent communication skills; I am flexible and adaptable in my approach to teaching, and I will always deliver positive results of school based on the defined curriculum. One area I particularly thrive in as a math teacher is when I need to explain difficult and challenging mathematical concepts to students who have historically struggled to grasp what is required. In situations such as these, I am patient, I am reassuring and I use simple, easy to understand methodologies to teach the subject in question. Our Goals:
To provide intensive, explicit and systematic instruction in a small group setting. To differentiate instruction in order to meet each student’s specific learning style. To help students develop and build essential reading skills needed to become successful and confident. Strategies for effectively teaching math to elementary schoolers.
