The pedagogy of Sivasagar Abacus Academy involves a structured approach to teaching abacus skills, with a focus on :
1. Gradual Progression: Breaking down skills into manageable steps, helping the student grasp onto the basic concept and gradually increasing complexity over terms. Each student is taught at their own speed.
2. Repetition and Practice: Regular practice reinforces learning, builds muscle memory, and enhances skills. Our classes promote and hold open practice sessions regularly with students of similar terms to help them grow in a friendly & fun environment.
3. Visualization and Imagery: We encourage students to visualize abacus beads and calculations mentally which significantly improves their brain’s creative power. And over time they are able to perform complex calculations mentally with complete accuracy and speed.
4. Mental Calculation: Developing finger dexterity, strength, and coordination. Finger tips have nerves that are directly connected to the brain. Abacus learning involves constant tip touches which stimulates the brain emphasizing mental math skills, enabling the students to perform calculations without the abacus.
5. Competitions and Assessments: Regular evaluations and competitions to motivate students. Term end exams help us keep track of the all individual students’ progress and help them accordingly. Yearly annual abacus competitions both internally and nationally held at our Academy facilitates competitive mindset in the children.
6. Faculty Guidance: Experienced instructors provide personalized support, feedback, and encouragement to each and every student.
7. Multi-Sensory Learning: We incorporate visual, auditory, and kinesthetic approaches to engage students better.
8. Holistic Development: Sivasagar Abacus Academy believes in fostering cognitive, motor, and emotional growth, alongside abacus skills.
Our Teaching Methods Include:
1. Demonstration and Imitation
2. Guided Practices
