Soroban at Kodomo School

Not just a calculation lesson: training in “how to use your head.”

Move the fingers, picture the numbers, keep going to the end. Repeating this builds not only calculation skills but also concentration and the confidence that “if I try, I can do it.” The teacher watches each child’s progress, sets tasks that fit that child, and marks the work on the spot. Grade exams can also be taken at your usual classroom.
