Because I went to a public kindergarten, when I started SoroTouch in the first grade of elementary school, my academic ability was pretty average. However, after two and a half years of study, not only was I able to multiply 2-digit x 3-digit numbers and divide 5-digit by 2-digit numbers just by hearing them, but I was also able to do flash mental arithmetic. I don’t think I would have been able to acquire this ability by just going to school.

The reason why children are able to study every day is because SoroTouch has a system that allows them to continue. First, they can study on a tablet, a device that children are interested in, and can start as if it were a game. Secondly, a feature unique to digital devices is that all learning history is recorded. Not only can the data clearly show where children are struggling and what they are good at, but it also makes their continued efforts visible, further motivating them to continue. Thirdly, it has classrooms. I think the system also makes it easy to learn by having analog connections, such as interacting with teachers and friends in the classroom.

Currently, I am living overseas for work and am taking online classes. The great thing about SoroTouch is that you can take classes wherever you are as long as you have an internet connection. It is a great advantage that you can receive the same level of education as in Japan, especially in developing countries where the educational environment is not well developed. My daughter was selected to represent her school in the Math Competition, which is held once a year for elementary school students in the lower grades, and competed against representatives from other schools in calculation skills, winning with a perfect score. Both she and her parents are grateful to SoroTouch for this, as it was thanks to SoroTouch. It was an event that gave her a lot of confidence.
