Why choose an abacus?

Arithmetic is an abstract concept; numerous scientific studies have shown that children 9 years old and under often struggle to visualize conceptual elements like those in arithmetic.
These difficulties can lead to a range of issues, from a rejection of mathematics in even the simplest situations to loss of self-confidence and academic failure, even in intelligent children.
Working with an abacus requires your child to engage deeply with numbers and develop mental structures that will aid them throughout their education and beyond.

The Abacus: an ancient tool still relevant today.

Children who use the abacus during their learning often achieve significantly higher IQ test results than their peers, outperforming even those taught by the most modern and experimental educational methods.

The abacus supports its users far beyond mathematics:

Using the abacus enhances children's memory in two key ways. First, they no longer need to memorize arithmetic answers. Once a student has learned the abacus, they understand how to solve any arithmetic problem. They don’t need to memorize solutions or steps because the method remains consistent every time. Second, the abacus helps their memory by allowing them to vividly visualize how they arrived at results. By internalizing how calculations and numbers work, they can mentally picture different problems. Once the student knows how to solve a problem, they no longer need to retain the procedure in short-term memory.
Children often tend to memorize problems rather than develop problem-solving methods, leading to rote learning without true understanding—often not immediately apparent.
This issue is easily resolved by using an abacus, which promotes intuitive and effective assimilation of arithmetic concepts.

From preschool to high school, the abacus provides clear value to every student who uses it.
