In today’s fast-paced world, the ability to think quickly, solve problems mentally, and stay focused under pressure is more valuable than ever. While many children rely heavily on calculators or memorization, some are discovering a better way — a true superpower.
That superpower is mental math, and it’s at the heart of what we do at SIMA Abacus.
What Is Mental Math — And Why Does It Matter?
Mental math is more than solving sums without a calculator — it’s about training the brain to visualize numbers, understand patterns, and perform complex calculations with clarity and speed.
Here’s what mental math builds in children:
- Cognitive flexibility — the ability to think in new ways
- Stronger memory — thanks to active recall and mental visualization
- Increased confidence — because they know they can solve problems independently
- Faster thinking under pressure — especially helpful during tests and competitions
With mental math skills, children become more than good at arithmetic. They become quick thinkers — ready for any challenge school (or life) throws their way.
The Power of Mental Math with SIMA Abacus
At SIMA Abacus, we take mental math to the next level.
Our program is built on the Soroban abacus method, combined with brain-training techniques like:
- Two-handed abacus operation to activate both hemispheres of the brain
- ANZAN training, where children solve math problems using mental visualization
- Daily U-Practice, which strengthens memory, speed, and attention
This isn’t guesswork — it’s a proven system grounded in neuroscience and used in high-performing countries around the world.
Through consistent training, children develop the ability to calculate large numbers mentally, solve problems quickly, and stay sharp — even under academic pressure.
Mental Math in Real Life
Here’s what mental math with SIMA Abacus looks like in real life:
- A 7-year-old calculating faster than a calculator — all in their head
- A child who used to avoid math homework now asks for more practice
- Students finishing tests with time to spare — and getting the answers right
- Kids gaining the confidence to participate more actively in class
Parents often tell us, “It’s like watching a light switch on in their brain.”
That’s the mental math transformation we strive for at SIMA.
Whether your child is behind in math, losing confidence, or just ready for something more challenging — SIMA Abacus is the place to start.
