Hello Monica! So glad you joined. 🙂 I can understand the nervousness, but as you get started, you will see that it’s not difficult at all to pick up and your 4.5 year old will be so glad you are doing this for him. In any case, I will email you separately to schedule your complimentary orientation call. Welcome again!
Cheers!

If however,…[Read more]

Hi Doniyor, this is done using what we call mixed rules and you will find it in Unit 4. Basically it means using more than one rule to solve the question.
So to solve 35 + 8, the thought process goes like this:
1. To add 8, we know that we do, -2 + 10.
2. But in 35, there is no way to do -2 directly, so we use the five rule that says that to do -2…[Read more]

Hi Olga, great question! 🙂 I would strongly recommend the child use their right hand to move the beads. (even if they are left handed). I would also recommend, they put the pencil down and then pick it up to write the answer, instead of holding the pencil in their right hand while moving the beads. Since the ones column is on the right of the…[Read more]

Hi Olga, good catch! Yes, that is intentional. The idea here is to let you know that once you understand the structure of the program and how a child progresses from learning on Abacus to Mind Math, you will be able to use the older worksheets that the child used to learn new concept on the Abacus as Mind Math worksheets.

Cheers!

If your child is able to finish the first week of worksheets quickly, we have an app on the app store for both Apple and Android called “Abacus Flashcards” where they may be able to find extra practice to recognize beads on…[Read more]

Actually, not with the middle finger, but with the pointer finger, also known as the forefinger or the index finger. 🙂

I’ve emailed you for your availability in a separate email. Can you let me know and I will setup an online meeting with a tutor to help you.

Cheers!

Hi Yeshaiahu, great questions. Answers below:
