Bodla Brothers Abacus Magic
Before we start telling our experience about abacus we would like to pen down few things about us. We are just like any ordinary kids who always enjoy Indoor/outdoor activities (i.e. cycling, swimming, badminton are few of our favourites) but gave little time to study. During our study time, our parents have observed our enthusiasm in maths and thought to improve our skills, speed and accuracy in whatever we do.

I turned my child into a math wizz and now you can too
The following is from an article titled “I turned my child into a math whizz and now you can too” published in the Scottish Mail on Sunday by Kirsten Johnson.
WHEN Dr Rashmi Mantri discovered her nine-year-old son was struggling with simple sums, she decided to go back to basics.
Using an ancient technique she learned while growing up in India, she tutored Dhruv after school – with the help of an abacus.
Within weeks he had been transformed into a maths whizz and his classmates’ parents began to get in touch to ask for help.
Now Dr Mantri, a former university lecturer, is taking her abacus tutoring to the masses after becoming disillusioned by the Scottish primary school curriculum. Hundreds of children attend her weekly Supermaths sessions in Glasgow’s West End and South Side, while her first Edinburgh class was launched last week.

CISCO KID Dhruv is on Top Of The Digital World
At 13, Dhruv became the youngest person in the world to qualify as a cyber ops Cisco Certified Network Associate. It’s an exciting achievement and all the more remarkable when you consider that not so long ago he was struggling to do simple sum in his head.
The term “Cyber Ops” probably has the most of us thinking of dark arts beyond the worldwide web with hackers shifting million of pounds at the click of a mouse and comprising the security of everything around the world from oil firms to military forces.

Year of Young People: How an ancient tool turned me into a maths whizz
I WAS inspired to learn coding at a young age because computers are the future. We are already depending a lot on technology, web apps, mobile apps and software day-to-day. I used to think about the code behind these software applications is, and I used to dream about the programming.
Every time I played a game, I came to my mum asking her questions: “How is this made?” “How does this work?”, ”Why is it that these move on their own?” “Can we edit or delete the code and change the functionality of the software?”
