Introducing the
Joy of Mental
Arithmetic
Why UCMAS?
If you want your child to improve their
reasoning and mathematical aptitude
through mental arithmetic, UCMAS
should be your first choice. Established
in 1993, UCMAS has remained one
of the leading programmes to guide
young minds into the domain of mental
arithmetic. UCMAS is completely devoted
to assisting children with their analytical,
logical, and cognitive skills through fun,
scientifically-proven mental arithmetic
exercises. UCMAS actively uses the
abacus as a simple, yet efficient tool for
sharpening young minds.
According to popular belief fun and
arithmetic do not always go hand in
hand. But what if there was a way
to impart the essential knowledge of
arithmetic to children enjoyably and
efficiently? Mental Arithmetic has
become a popular practice over the
last few decades. Mental arithmetic
help students to solve an arithmetic
problem just by using their minds,
without the use of a calculator or
manually solving the problem by
writing down the figures.
Why is mental arithmetic important?
Currently, metal arithmetic has been
used as an efficient way of developing
a child’s cognitive abilities and
mathematical thinking. And since
mental arithmetic is completely reliant
on the child’s mental prowess, it is
also an important exercise for brain
development. Mental arithmetic,
therefore, plays an instrumental role
in keeping the brain sharp and helps
the child develop an analytic sense
of quantities, estimation, and logical
thinking. Furthermore, introducing your
child to mental arithmetic at a young
age not only helps them to grow an
interest in mathematics but also assists
in improving their concentration.
Mental arithmetic is also beneficial for
improving memory skills and avoiding
mistakes while solving mathematical
The UCMAS Course
The UCMAS course is highly
recommended for children aged
between 4 to 12. The course
introduces the children to various
aspects of mental arithmetic, including
listening and visual calculation, formula
conceptualisation, mental calculation
of multiplication and division, square
root operations, and more.
Over the last few decades, the UCMAS
programme has been adopted by over 80
countries across the world with almost
5,000 centres that focus on the use of
mental arithmetic for helping more than
a million children unlock the limitless
potential of their brains. The UCMAS
programme has been the proud recipient
of several prestigious awards and
recognitions and is the first organization
to be certified ISO 9001:2000 in the
mental arithmetic industry.
