Program
The Human Brain
- Intelligence is the most valuable wealth of human;
- Experience the maximum human brain exploration;
- UCTOOL Mental Arithmetic is the best channel for the brain exploration;
- Special methods to teach the skill of fast and accurate calculation;
- We provide right Brain Mental Development Training.
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 thls because when the children are learning
U C MAS Mental Arithmetic, they are actually also undergolng 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 joyfuI thlng
for these children. In the UCTOOL and mental arithmetic education children will
be tralned to concentrate when Iistening to the teachers questions (that ranges
from easy to difficult) and then focus on calculating the answers as accurately
as possible.

one's speed and accuracy of calculation, for example, adding 10 - digit numbers
within a few seconds. This by itself is already an amazing accomplishment for most
children.
Observation
Observtion is the ability to compare and analyse 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 braln to visualize the UCTOOL 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.

Examination
|
- U C MAS Academy of Mental Arithmetic, in collaboration with the China Zhusuan Association,
will organize international UCTOOL and mental arithmetic grading examinations twice
every year.
- Each paper will vary from Grade 1 to Grade 10 and the Grand Level, in which the
Grand Level is the highest level of the examinations.
- Examination results will be classified into the grades of distinction, credit, pass
and fail. Certificates will be awarded to students who have passed the examinations.
