Certified Abacus coach and eAbacus Hybrid Partner, Urwashi Pamnami has
successfully presented the opportunity for her students to participate in the
International Abacus Olympiad 2022. This was an online event conducted in Dubai
on 10th and 11th of September 2022. For this year, Urwashi had her kids from
India, Ireland, and Dubai to be a part of this Olympiad. She trained the
students herself and was confident in their knowledge of the field.
The Abacus Olympic Association has been conducting these Olympiads for many
years. Over a thousand abacus enthusiasts who came from around 11 countries
took part in this edition. The exam is divided into two segments- With Abacus
and Without Abacus, i.e. mental mathematics. The students were required to
solve 120-150 sums in the designated time, formulated according to their
respective levels.
The proficient eAbacus Hybrid Partner, Urwashi Panmani says, “It makes me
extremely delighted to see my students thriving in their interested area. I
believe that such Olympiads account to test individual knowledge and improve
their analytical skills. It allows them to identify and work on their strengths
and weaknesses. This not only lets them challenge their ordinary ways of
learning but also promotes deeper understanding of scientific facts. My motive
to peruse my students in participating in the International Abacus Olympiad is
to built their confidence in the game, and thereby helping them to increase
their mathematical efficiency.”
Crediting her eight years of experience as an Abacus teacher, Urwashi was
sure that her students had what it takes to be a part of an Olympiad at such a
grand level. She not only has many licensed teaching centers in India but is
also opening them in Dubai soon. With the medium of eAbacus teaching methods,
she has definitely tried to make learning easier and enjoyable for the
students. It has been proven effective to improve retention among the learners.
The results of the Olympiad are awaited which must be out in a few weeks.
Once the results are out, the association will organize an offline celebration
in Dubai where the toppers and participants will be felicitated with medals and
trophies.
