Advantages of Abacus Training

1. Facilitates Brain Development

Beginning abacus learning at a tender age facilitates brain development. When a child works on abacus, both the hands are made use of to move the beads. Finger movement of hands activates the brain sensors. Right hand coordinates with the left hemisphere of the brain and the left hand coordinates with the right hemisphere of the brain. This facilitates brain functioning.

2. Interests Children

The colorful beads and the very process of solving mathematical problems with abacus interest the child. Abacus training helps to improve concentration and makes problem solving as easy as breeze.

3. Better Understanding of Mathematical Problems

Abacus classes train to approach the numbers in a contextual fashion. This ensures better understanding of the mathematical problems.

4. Gives a Boost to Self Esteem

As you know, abacus training helps to solve arithmetical problems with ease. On solving the problems easily, kids become proud of their capacity and grow confidence. More knowledge as well as the ability to do better than others can boost self-esteem.

There are several other benefits attached like

  • Better comprehension
  • Clearer reasoning
  • Improved reflexes
  • Keener listening skill

Abacus is one of the best ways to help children learn addition, subtraction as well as the complex procedures like multiplication and division.
