SpeedoMaths' Abacus programme trains children to see numbers, not just count them — building lightning-fast mental calculation, sharper concentration and real confidence with numbers, one bead at a time. Every student progresses on both the standard bead abacus and the finger abacus, so calculation stays fast even when there's no instrument in hand.

Abacus is more than an ancient calculating tool — at SpeedoMaths, it is the foundation for whole-brain development. Children begin at Level 0 by physically moving beads on the abacus to solve simple direct sums, then progress step by step through addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. Alongside the bead abacus, students are trained on the finger abacus — using their fingers as a portable, always-available calculating tool. As they advance, they learn to “see” the abacus in their mind and perform the same calculations mentally, at remarkable speed and accuracy.
Our Abacus curriculum runs across 9 structured levels, from Level 0 to Level 8, exactly as it is taught in the SpeedoMaths classroom and workbook series, so a child moving from the physical book to online practice — or vice versa — never loses continuity.
A classroom-tested method with measurable progress at every level.
Coordinated use of both hands and both hemispheres of the brain improves memory, focus and processing speed.
Students aren't dependent on carrying an instrument — the finger abacus keeps the same technique available anytime, anywhere.
A built-in digital tool lets students do sums whenever they want, not just during class hours.
Every level, from Level 0 to Level 8, ends with a timed assessment, so parents can see real improvement, not just attendance.
The same structured, level-wise approach used in our printed Abacus & Vedic Maths workbooks.
Children stop fearing mental maths and start enjoying it — a shift that carries into school exams and Olympiads.
Every SpeedoMaths instructor is trained on our own teaching method, not a generic franchise script.
Our structured curriculum takes children step-by-step — from basic number sense to advanced mental arithmetic — unlocking their highest potential.
Quick bead drills to activate focus (5 minutes).
Guided, step-by-step teaching of the level's technique.
Worked examples solved together, just like in the SpeedoMaths workbook.
Timed independent practice to build calculation speed.
A short assessment before a child is promoted to the next level.
Every Abacus student gets access to our Practice Portal — a built-in digital tool that lets your child practise sums whenever they want, at their own pace, without waiting for the next class. The on-screen digital abacus mirrors the physical one, so visualisation carries over instantly and stays sharp between classes. Daily practice on the portal is what turns classroom learning into real, lasting speed.
Visit the PortalPractise sums anytime, anywhere — at home, on a break, whenever your child wants to.
Reinforces the same mental picture taught in class, so bead-to-mind visualisation gets faster with every session.
Short, regular sessions steadily build calculation speed, level after level.
Numbers flash on screen or are read aloud — training the eye, ear and mind to calculate instantly.
Addition, subtraction, multiplication and division drills across every level.
Fun, game-based practice so children enjoy learning instead of feeling like it's homework.
No prior abacus experience required. Ideal for parents who want their child to build strong number fundamentals early, improve school-exam speed, or prepare for Abacus and Maths Olympiad competitions.
