U c mas uk ltd, master franchisee, mrs. Taruna
patel held the 1st u c mas uk abacus and mental arithmetic competition
2005. It was held on 24th september, 2005 at the ealing town-hall.
The guest of honour for the inaugural event was mr. Michael elliot,
the mayor of the london borough of ealing. U c mas, the universal
concept of mental arithmetic system, originated in china and introduced
to the world by mr. Dino wong from malaysia. This concept focuses
on the total brain development for the children aged between 4
and 12 years old with the use of the ancient chinese tool called
abacus, with which the use of four fingers and two hands movement
stimulates both sides of the brain for the whole brain development
concept. This concept is in operation since 1993 but has entered
the western world only recently. Its presence in uk has been only
for the last few months but the progress and growth has been very
encouraging. In the short seven months u c mas uk has 13 franchises
all around the greater london areas almost 80 students were able
to participate in this competition having completed 1st level
of this concept. More than 80 students had enrolled for the competition
where they had to complete upto 100 sums of all levels in under
eight minutes, which included additions and substractions.
The ages of the children ranged from four years to twelve years.
The performance by the competition children definitely amazed
mr. Mayor, but what was more amazing was the live demonstration
and performance by the invited whiz kid preethy from india together
with her course instructor miss geetha. Preethy performed 3 x
3 and 4 x 3 multiplications and divisions at the blink of an eyelid.
She even wowed the crowd with her abilities to calculate a 10
x 10 digit sum in less than 40 seconds and a 15 x 10 digit sum
within 55 seconds. Whilst the children were working on the competition
paper, the live demonstration was on at the same time, giving
a message to some of the concerned parents that their children
can concentrate with all the activities taking place simultaneously
in the same hall. Their children’s performance was there
for all to witness the abilities of u c mas children to concentrate,
calculate, their speed & accuracy and self confidence all
visible at the same time.
Mr. Mayor mentioned the importance of mental calculations as compared
to over usage of the calculators and other such gadgets would
definitely be a skill that can be carried through a lifetime with
the visible results. After the competition was over some of the
same children trained in u c mas uk also performed their abilities
to calculate single digit sums, 6 rows without an abacus - mentally.
Our guests of honour mr. Kapil dev - ex. Cricketing captain and
legend from india, mr. Charles patel - an enterpreneur from uk,
mr. Prabhakar - ceo of bank of baroda, uk operations and ms. Soundri
— master franchisee from uae were present for the prize
distribution ceremony. The results were very surprising as many
children had attempted and completed all 100 sums. And the childrenwere
honoured to have received their trophies from these dignitaries.
The champions trophy winner ms. Veenitha was sponsored by u c
mas uk, master franchisee mrs. Taruna patel, to compete in the
international
competition in november held every year at kulalampur, malaysia,
u c mas head quarters. Over all the huge success of the competition
and its results
gave the message to the parents about u c mas and its proven concept.
A concept that helps you discover the full potential within each
child and gives them lifetime skills like listening, photographic
memory, concentration, creativity, speed & accuracy, comprehension
and self confidence. Uc mas concept helps every parent discover
the genius within each child. Its global representation is getting
stronger with the presence of u c mas in uk now, and very soon
the united states too. The first u c mas competition of uk is
just a beginning for this mind boggling concept. The competition
has given the parents of the already enrolled students at one
of many u c mas centres across the country a very pleasant surprise
seeing the results and performance of their own children in a
very short time.
