Learning Styles at UCMAS Math Program

 Globally recognised and scientifically proven, our Math program for kids comes with an advantage; we teach students in small batches rather than full-sized classes in public schools across the US. Our math program utilizes abacus tool for training children in basic mathematical concepts, enhancing their calculation skills and developing logical thinking. Our program is specifically targeted at children between the ages 5-13. This is a perfect age group where learning skills is the easiest. 

Developed by child development experts and psychologists, our mental math program uses the latest pedagogical techniques to impart education and mathematical temperament among children. Our methods are backed by years of experience with children, and developed with a deep understanding of education of a specialized nature. 

We have divided our learning styles into three basics:

Kinaesthetic, Auditory and Visual learning styles. 

Every child is unique in his/her approach to learning. Our program not only deals with their method of learning, but we also help in developing their other styles of learning too, to make them wholly aware of their cognitive capabilities. 

Kinaesthetic Learning Style: 

Kinaesthetic is all about the sense of touch and physical sensation. Our program focuses on the physical use of abacus for representing and calculating numbers. Once a child grasps an understanding of numbers, we then focus on other areas of learning. 

Auditory Learning Style: 

Some children are adept listeners and can learn mathematical concepts through hearing. 

For such children we have special modules where listening and writing jumbled dictations help them.This strengthens their auditory style of learning. Later on, when they are sufficiently well trained, we also introduce them to other styles too. 

Visual Learning Style:

For those adept in visual learning, we conduct various activities with flash cards, which are bead representation of numbers. These activities help children enhance their visual leaning style. Once they have grasp mental intricacies of numbers, we also expose them to other forms of learning for a holistic, all around development. 

At UCMAS, we use the Abacus as a Whole Brain Development Technique to enhance cognitive and mental skills in understanding numbers, preparing children for a tomorrow which is technologically driven by new forms of AI, software programming and robotics. Developing math skills at an earlier age gives them an edge they need to stand out from the rest.

Can Abacus Programs Reduce Math Anxiety in Schools?

Image
Math anxiety is more common than most people think. Many students—even those in elementary school—experience fear, stress, and low self-esteem when faced with math problems. This emotional discomfort affects their performance and can even discourage them from engaging in math activities altogether. It’s not just about struggling with numbers; it’s about how math makes them feel. This anxiety can stem from different sources: negative past experiences, pressure to perform, fast-paced lessons, or lack of individualized attention. As a result, children might begin to believe they are simply “not good at math,” which becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy. This mindset can impact not only their academic journey but also their confidence in everyday decision-making. To help students overcome this challenge, schools are looking into innovative tools that do more than teach equations—they transform how children view and interact with math. One such solution is introducing abacus in schools , which...
