Why is it important for Parents to understand the course objective
As a parent it is important that you understand the objective of any course before enrolling your child. Only then will we be able to make the right choice. Which is why at Mathcruise we ensure to counsel the parents first so they realize the true value of the course, its benefits and are confident that this is the right course for their child. Every child has different learning needs and interests, as a parent you are closest to those facts and must consider them while enrolling your child in any course.
What is Vedic Maths – An Overview
- Fastest and traditional Mathematics Framework based on Indian Vedas
- Developed by Sri Bharathi Krishna Tirthaj, and India’s gift to the world
- In simple words, it provides shortcuts and tricks to solve complex Mathematical problems ranging from basics like arithmetic operations, to very advanced topics like Calculus or Trigonometry or Geometry
- For most effective output, the children must already have a good handle on the specific Maths concepts (in his school) and then he can learn alternate tricks to find answers to any question within those topics. For e.g. if a child knows has learnt calculus in school already, then it makes sense for him to learn Calculus tricks in Vedic Maths.
How can Parents determine the best Vedic Maths Course?
While there is no scientific method or formula to determine the best Vedic Maths classes, here are a few criteria that you must tick off in your checklist while making this decision.
- Topics or Vedic Maths Tricks Covered
Vedic Maths is like a vast ocean and it covers all the advanced topics of Mathematics. You must evaluate whether the topics are appropriate as per the age of your child, and how deep you want to go into the ocean? Will yoru child be able to use those topics in his regular work within School Maths? Ask these basic questions and you will be able to make a judgment easily. For e.g. if your child is in 6th or 7th grade, there is no point in enrolling him in advance Vedic Maths since he wouldn’t have learnt those concepts yet.
- Age group
The minimum recommended age for a child to enroll into Vedic Maths course is 11 years and we actually say NO to many parents based on this criterion. The reason is very simple that a child must understand the arithmetic and other basic Maths concepts, to apply Vedic Maths tricks to those topics. Children below the age of 10-11 years are generally not aware of these concepts, so beware of any academy who is enrolling children below 11 years in Vedic Maths. They are probably just into the money business.
- Trainer qualification
- If the trainer has a professional certification in Vedic Maths, it will enable him to provide the training in a meaningful and structured way. The lesson plan (which is the sequencing of topics) plays a very crucial role in ensuring that the Vedic Maths syllabus is organized in the right way. A professional trainer would have a good understanding of these nuances as well as he would know the right way to explain the concepts, so do not hesitate from asking the qualifications of the trainer.

- Trainer teaching experience
We all know that even the teachers learn new things every single day. While teaching the students they learn the art of effective teaching, how to connect with students, how to engage them in meaningful conversation, how to proactively assess if a child is able to understand the concepts thoroughly or are there any gaps to be filled. So as a parent you must make an effort to go with a trainer who has good teaching experience.
- Reviews from existing and past parents
Let us say you have narrowed down the few options and all the trainers are well-qualified and have a good number of years of teaching experience. How do you make the final choice now? In this situation the best solution is to read the google reviews of parents and students who are currently enrolled or were enrolled in the past. Google reviews are the most authentic way to evaluate whether the Vedic Maths classes you are going to enroll is indeed the right choice, or you should explore more before making the decision.
