Why young children need to learn Math using the abacus:
A proven track record through history and recent neuro-scientific research have positively confirmed the effectiveness of the abacus training. Calculating on an ancient abacus that utilizes a hands-on, kid- friendly and multiple-intelligence approach has proven benefits to enhance the development of human brain.
When the hands, both hemispheres of the brain, brain waves, auditory nerves, and memory are in synch, the brain is at its best. It is wired for success.
