— QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS —

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

Mental arithmetic 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.

Mental arithmetic 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).
