A⁺Students is a whole-brain development course aimed at children from 2 ½ years.
In the programme, we help children to develop both their left and right brain capabilities.
At the same time A⁺Students aims at creating a love for Maths.
A⁺Students enables learners to "see" Maths.
A⁺Students is much more than a mathematics course,
it will also heighten the skill level that learners need throuhout various learning areas, like
comprehension, concentration, the ability to listen and pay attention, creativity and
problem-solving.
Our approach is "learing through play"
Our lessons are interactive, physical
and great fun.
The maximum class size is 7 learners per 45min or 1 hour lessons.

A session typically starts off with brain gym, as it achieves integration of the left and right brain hemispheres. Thereafter, we practice flash cards and speed writing. The kids move about, on the carpet, on their feet, then we'll continually use the big soroban to familiarize them with the concept. Practicing finger excercises on the soroban will start to refine motor skills. This moves learning from the abstract to the concrete and helps them to grasp the notions of adding and subtracting, after which they will be able to step-up the numbers with which they are dealing.
