UCMAS Mental Arithmetic System is a modern representation of an ancient art of mental math. It uses an ancient tool, the abacus, for the right brain development, contributing in a large measure to increase speed and accuracy, learning ability, concentration, perceptual capability, memory and academic performance.

The abacus is used to teach the children to use both their hands to manipulate the beads. In the initial stages, they take the help of the abacus to work out mathematical problems. Gradually the abacus is kept away and the children perform the manipulation of the beads mentally. This program has proven to enhance self-reliance and self-confidence and offers a unique opportunity to discover the hidden potential of children equipping them with lifetime skills.

  • why for 4-12. WHat about the teacher who teach at ucmas? Not all of them study at 4-12

  • @ArrogantJew castrating ?

  • @mimib1230 i bought one when i was 14 and gave up, im maybe gonna start again because i see 12 year olds adding 5 digit numbers together in their brain in like 5 seconds... amazing.

  • Why do calculations in your head? Because it teaches you number sense. How many times have I been given the wrong change in stores because the cashiers do what the register tells them, like stupid little robots. They aren't 'filling their heads', they are developing their heads.

    But, I still hate their little song.

  • بعد 3 سنوات يا جحا مات يالحمار مات يالملك مات

    اسألوا الاول اللي جربوه نسيوه تاني ليه

    لانه يعتمد علي الذاكره البصريه في حفظ شكل العداد زي الكاشير و كاتب الاله الكاتبه اللي بيكتب بسرعه دون ان ينظر الي الاله الكاتبه هل هو عبقري رغم انه يستخدم كلتا يديه اثناء الكتابه و يتذكر شكل لوحه المفاتيح التي يكتب عليها ابو دبلوم تجاره !!!

  • What these schools are doing is castrating children for life a head.

  • @Lamboragon Yeah, totally agree with you! Why use your head when a calculator can do the trick? and tablet pcs and ipad or even smart phones which are easily available can all do this!

  • as a major in neurology 4:34 makes me mad since that is a load of bull

  • You were still learning how to read in HIGH SCHOOL? lol its definitely not the USA's fault you process slow. I dont know anyone like that.

    But anyways USA schools are behind
