CMA advocates the use of both hands in Mental Arithmetic as research findings have shown that if both the right and left brains are stimulated together, the balanced growth will enhance your child's intelligence, ability to calculate complex arithmetic, concentrate better and longer, respond better and improve your child's memory and imaginative skills.

In keeping up with global technological advancements, our centre is a leading Mental Arithmetic Education Organization that uses multimedia-teaching techniques.

As a foundation upon which CMA was built with skills and attitude to motivate students, CMA establishes a solid and comprehensive mental arithmetic training syllabus that includes the following:

• Both-Hand Training: To train students' right and left brain simultaneously, hence create an all-round education.
• Relaxation Excersise: To train students' concentration and focus abilities.
• Speed Training: To train students to have acute response when dealing with digits and stimulate latent capacity.
• Response Training: To Train students' perceptibility, judging and inferring abilities.
• Listen-and-Calculate Training: To train students' hearing ability, concentration and memory.
• See-and-Calculate Training: To train students' patience, imaginative ability and ability of high-speed calculation.

CMA provides a unique learning environment, where each student learns at his own pace with personalized teaching using carefully designed teaching materials, that fits individual needs and progress of the students. As such, the class can begin at any time. It is an interesting phenomenon in CMA that students with different levels of skills can embark the course in the same classroom using different levels of learning materials and progress at different speed. This proactive teaching method between the teacher and students encourages an interactive and cooperative learning environment that captivates the interest of the student in learning arithmetic.

What does it mean to be Left-brain or Right-brain dominant?

Many scientists agree that there seem to be two mode of thinking: the intuitive, creative mode of the right brain hemisphere and the highly logical, organised mode of the left brain hemisphere.

Our personalities are determined, to a great degree, by our preferred mode of thinking and reasoning.

Actually, our dominant brain mode is a very fascination thing to explore, and it can tell us a lot about how we can study and learn more efficiently.
