Watch some videos to understand on how to add +9, +8 with in minutes....This may take years in the Chinese Abacus
JUST 6 MONTHS TO DO COMPLEX PROBLEMS
Unlike Chinese Abacus, which is difficult to master, most of our students start doing complex mixed addition and subtraction on abacus with in 3 to 6 months. Some examples of the same can be seen below.
EASY TO LEARN AND VISUALIZE
Students start doing mental visualization very early and do not have to wait for years!!!
Chinese Abacus takes almost 2.5 years to complete the course at all levels. While in IOTA, students of different age groups complete in different time. For example, Our Class 3 to 4 students may complete the program in less than 1 year and move on to complex topics like fractions, decimals. Some examples of simple visualization are shown below in the video
MORE THAN JUST ABACUS
We use variety of techniques to enable students do super fast calculations without abacus. More than 100+ proprietary techniques are taught in these curriculum
MORE THAN JUST ADDITION AND SUBTRACTION
Most of our students complete learning addition and subtraction with in 3 to 4 months and move on to complex topics like Multiplication, Division, Measurements, Fractions and Decimals. Some of those videos are enclosed below
MULTIPLICATION TABLES WITHOUT TABLES
Our curriculum helps students achieve excellence in tables using variety of innovative techniques. These techniques are not covered in other programs like abacus, tutoring etc.
MORE EMPHASIS ON VISUAL MULTIPLICATION AND DIVISION
Students will learn lattice multiplication, box multiplication, complement multiplication and various other techniques to enhance their speeds. Similar emphasis is also there on Division. Students achieve proficiency till 4 x 4 multiplication and division by 3 digits without using the tool. These techniques are not taught in other systems, where the emphasis is more on addition/subtraction.
SUPER FAST TECHNIQUES IN MEASUREMENTS
Ours is the only program which teaches students super fast techniques in conversion, four operations of mass, volume, length, time and others. This is as per the Indian curriculum which is not available with other programs.
ONLY PROGRAM TO TEACH WORD PROBLEMS USING BAR MODELS
Students find word problems very difficult. We also emphasize on students doing word problems unlike other systems, where only addition and subtraction sums are given without any focus on word problems.
ONLY PROGRAM TO TEACH FACTORS, FRACTIONS, DIVISIBILITY TESTS
Students usually find fractions, factors difficult at Class 4 to 6 students. Our program covers all important curriculum points and helps student learn and enhance speed in these activities too.
ONLY PROGRAM TO TEACH COMPLEX SQUARING, CUBING TECHNIQUES
Our program teaches complex squaring, cubing, square roots which are not taught in other programs.
