J.S.Ifthekhar
Numbers can be scary, but they can also be fun. Little children playing with figures and tackling complicated sums with ease. Difficult to believe. But when you have conquered the number phobia, anything is possible.
Come November 11 and Hyderabad will see the kids taking part in the biggest ever number game. More than 4000 children from 17 States across the country will showcase their mental prowess in Abacus and Brain Gym at the first ever national competitions being organized by SIP Academy. The programme will be held at the State-of-the-art HICC convention hall at Madhapur.
The SIP Prodigy 2006 is unique in that under one roof 4000 plus kids in the age group of 6-12 years will display their arithmetic and mental skills. In just five minutes flat they will be required to tackle 125 questions of addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, decimal, percentage, square roots and equations.
MENTAL ABILITY
SIP Academy founder Kelvin Tham, who is here ahead of the competition, said more and more children were getting attracted to Abacus and Brain Gym programme which seek to maximize the child’s potential. “No, it doesn’t just offer arithmetic solutions but develops mental ability,” says Mr.Tham who is offering the programme in 13 countries.
After going through different levels of the programme, children acquire concentration, speed accuracy, retention and recalling ability. The improved skills could be applied to not just mathematics but other subjects as well.
IMPACT ON STUDIES
“Those who have acquired the Abacus skills have shown improved academic performance,” said Mr.Tham, whose academy is training 20,000 students in India.
In 1999, he incorporated certain value added methodologies into the programme through Brain Gym to remove the mental blocks and energise the children.
“This new programme inculcates left and right brain interaction and boosts the confidence and creativity levels of children,” explains Dinesh Victor, director, SIP Academy India.

Thank you for sharing valuable thoughts.
The right trainer will lead to a bright future for your kids. ADHD treatment in Chennai will provide the best core techniques for the brain. Giving the proper training for your kids' brain in the early stage itself will be great for kids' future. The training for the memory improvement techniques should be practiced at least 10- 15mitunes a day, their proper training will lead your kids towards the right path. These proper techniques will also give improvement to the concentration level. Other than this you can also give child concentration exercises so that they can do work without any distractions.
