More than arithmetic
Many people often assume that learning mental arithmetic is merely a method to improve the speed and accuracy of calculations, for example, adding 10-digit numbers withln a few seconds. By itself, it is already an amazing accomplishment for most young children. However, there is more to this because when the children are learning U C MAS Mental Arithmetic, they are actually also undergoing the process developing other aspects of the mind. When the children have acquired an astonishing calculation speed, it is actually only the end result of having developed the following mental abilities : concentration, observation, vlsualization & imagination, and memory.

Concentration
Concentration is the concentrated and directed attention towards a particular matter with clear reflection that creates a deep image and mental impression. An enhanced concentration leads to better absorption power. Studying will then be a joyful thing for these children. In the abacus and mental arithmetic education children will be trained to concentrate when Listening to the teachers questions (that ranges from easy to difficult) and then focus on calculating the answers as accurately as possible.

Observation
Observation is the ability to compare and analyze and differentiate objects, motives and steps. It is also a state of alertness and swiftness of the mind and senses. This comes from the need to understand the theoretical requirements of each calculation and at the same time be aware of the time, and promptings from the teachers.

Visualization and Imagination
By using the imagination of the right bran to visualize the abacus in mind, inevitably the powers of visualization would become sharp and clear. Albert Einstein believes that the imagination is important than knowledge, because imagination is the main source of yet-to-be-discovered knowledge.

Memory
Memory is the ability to store and retrieve information and experiences. It has been found that memory in the left brain would not stay long, but an image that is recorded in the right brain would stay on in the mind forever. By stimulating the right brain with mental arithmetic, and in combination with the alertness of the eyes, ears and hands, the ability to store and recall is developed together.
Therefore, the ability to solve 10-digits arithmetic problems in only a few seconds is only a small success in comparison to the actual mental training that has been done in order to achieve the skill to perform rapid calculations.

U C MAS Memory Technique is an International Concept. This highly structured programme was developed by U C MAS Memory Technique Research Academy Sdn. Bhd., Malaysia. The Pioneer and the Leader in Abacus Mental Arithmetic has  introduced Memory Technique Programme to the Middle school, High school and College students. U C MAS Memory Technique is a proven art, time tested & success assuring.

   U C MAS Memory Technique does not call for a tool to sharpen the memory to extraordinary level but calls for your time & will to watch & guide your mind. U C MAS Memory Technique helps eliminate pressure & stress, making, learning & work a lively & interesting process.

This Programme (Memory Technique, Mental Mapping & Speed Reading) is a 3 in 1 programme. This is a combination of eastern and western ideas transferred from Europe, America, China, Malaysia & Japan. With a panel of experienced educationists together with 8 years of experience in brain development education, U C MAS Malaysia has specially designed the programme to suit our educational system.

   The general idea of the whole program is to make learning more lively and fun. It gives room for every individual to improve their visualization, imagination and creativity. It is indeed a very effective right and left brain development program. Techniques learned throughout can be directly applied into daily life and schoolwork such as Geography, History, Science, Literature and Formulae as well. With these most recent and advance techniques graduating with a degree before the major age is no more the right of born genius.

The UCMAS  Mental Arithmetic  and The UCMAS  Memory Technique will Give your Child a Competitive Advantage in all areas of their lives.
