Abacus classes are the lifetime gift of self-confidence that parents can give to their children. Abacus training is proven and accepted as one of the best mechanism to learn arithmetic calculations in Mathematics and most people would have heard about the following key benefits:
- Superfast speed in arithmetic calculations
- 100% accuracy, yes literally 100%
However there is another super benefit of Abacus that most parents are not even aware of. Abacus classes lead to Brain Development and this is actually the biggest advantage a child gets if he attends the Abacus classes under a good professional trainer. High Speed and Accuracy in arithmetic calculation is just one application of the developed brain that parents are able to see from their naked eye. In reality, the increased confidence, brain development and boost in ability to grasp things quickly help the child in multiple spheres of life. In fact we cannot even imagine or quantify the numerous benefits your child will get throughout his life but as a parent, you will surely see those changes in your child and will be able to relate to it.
Where and How to find Best Abacus classes in Delhi?
Being a resident of Delhi, I can definitely share some good insights into this. I did a lot of research to find professional abacus classes in Delhi, as I wanted to ensure the best use of my money and my child’s time. I spoke to many Abacus trainers. Here are my recommendations:
- Online Abacus classes should be preferred over offline classes
There are obvious benefits of online classes such as saving travel time, convenience of studying from your own home, and children not getting exhausted due to travel. All of these are huge benefits which are driving more and more parents to opt for online mode.
- Prefer smaller organisations over the big names or brands
Simply because most big organizations spend a heavy budget on advertising, they usually cut down on teacher salaries and employ inexperienced teachers for low cost. Parents do not notice this generally and get attracted to big names, not realizing that the quality of Abacus training suffers badly if the teacher is not good enough.
- Ensure to connect with the Abacus teacher before enrolling
Remember that since Abacus classes are a complementary course (not mandatory in schools). Usually kids are not very keen and often take it lightly. Hence you will find a high dropout rate for Abacus enrollments since kids start to lose interest after a few classes. But here comes the role of a great teacher. If the Abacus teacher has the ability to connect with the kids and can engage them in positive learning, you will find that the kids are super excited to learn and practice Abacus.
- I enrolled my kids with Mathcruise after connecting with their chief trainer. I was assured of personal attention to my child by the chief trainer, which I felt is really important. They also promised small batches (of maximum 6 students) and very confidently gave money-back guarantee if the results does not match the expectations as per their defined curriculum and timeline.
- Most importantly, you can gauge the teacher’s confidence and ability to a good extent when you connect with them. Ask basic questions like how do they manage the difficult kids, or what challenge they usually face in online classes and request them to share some of their experiences. And when the teacher shares instances from real life, you can easily make out the genuineness of the teacher and their confidence level. So ensure to have an interaction with the Abacus teacher and then make your judgement call.
I interacted with Mathcruise chief trainer before enrolling my son and was simply amazed with her passion for Mathematics. Their goal is to remove fear of minds from the children and they are effectively doing this for the past 8-10 years. They proudly display the Google reviews of their present and past student’s parents on their website which is a testimony of their wonderful results.
My son has been learning Abacus for the past 11 months and he has become very fluent in arithmetic calculations (he is able to do all calculations mentally, without using paper or pen which is superb) and his overall confidence level has gotten a tremendous boost. He is not afraid of Maths anymore and learns doing Maths. You can also watch some of the amazing demo videos of Mathcruise students here, which shows their amazing ability to give successful results. These young kids (6-8 years) are solving the questions faster than the calculator, which is simply unbelievable.
Final Thoughts
Unless you know a good Abacus teacher personally, I would simply recommend you to go with Mathcruise since their team specializes in all kinds of Maths including Vedic Maths as well as Olympiad classes. They have their own copyrighted books as well which are designed in a very clear manner and they will let you know the moment they feel a child is not paying full attention to the classes. I have got the same feedback from many parents residing in Delhi, which proves that they have been delivering good results consistently. Earlier Mathcruise used to conduct offline classes also but lately they have shifted fully to online classes now, so actually it does not matter if you are residing in Delhi or even outside. This actually works to the benefit of parents.
Wherever you join, Abacus is a great course and I congratulate you for making the right decision as a parent. This guide will help you as a parent to choose the right Abacus course with confidence.
