Genius Map

 

Genius map is a company that teaches the soroban and mantel calculation skilled abacus operators report visualizing a mental image of the abacus and calculating any mathematical operations even the advanced ones such as multiplication, division and powers. This process is not only for calculating such equations, it is also for developing the brain of the student. And an experiment done by experts showed that:” the abacus training has both quantitative and qualitative on children’s mental skills(Stigler,1984). It was established in 2009 in Beirut Lebanon by the doctor Hade Hamza having branches in Saudi Arabia, Jordan, China, Japan and in many countries around the world.

It is a member in ISDF (international soroban diffusion foundation) and cooperation agreement with (shin soroban gakushuugukku).

We are offering a discount for all official schools, since we believe in the abilities of our children.

A student who woke up from 6 am then travelling for an hour in the bus from home to school followed by 6 to 7 hours learning, and another hour to return home, makes him feel tired and anxious. Also students are mostly depending on their calculators to solve mathematical calculations even though these calculations are easy. Furthermore, our students are challenged by their own school friends and not by other students from other schools and maybe countries. And the most important problem is that the student is not prepared to think logically, he is only like a receiver who memorizes the information.

Entering genius MAP process to schools, two hours per week to all classes have many benefits on students. This process is maintained through giving student’s books according to their age and classifying them into levels and teaching them how to calculate equations on the sorban. Following many steps as starting from teaching students how to calculate using sorban then how to imagine these sorban and calculate mental and starting from calculating easy calculations reaching the advanced ones.

A student is not a robot so high pressure effects his health and brain development, so our process is like a medicine. And after few months the student would be able to abandons the calculator by 80 %. After one year students are able to challenge students from other schools and even countries. Our process is changing the student from a memorizer and a receiver to a person who thinks logically and finds solutions for many problems.

We started our work in 2007, in only one year we achieve our first goal which is 1000 students, then this number have increased strictly till reaching 25000 students in this year 2019. Many schools have entered our project to their curriculum and they found that their students become better and smarter. The first impressive achievement was making the first competition in Lebanon in 2012 such as 500 students were participating, after that every year the number of students increase till reaching 2512 competitor in the competition in 2017 breaking the world highest record of number of competitors participating in a one day sorban competition reached by china of number 2300 student, so we have entered the Guinness book. From 2011 till now we are participating in both international competitions WAAMA and PAMA and getting the first prizes in each year.
