Iidabshi Lab Center

Help develop SoroTouch with us!

Iidabashi Lab Center opened as a abacus school in 2011. With ideas from many students and parents, SoroTouch was made in 2014. We welcome children and parents who would like to cooperate with SoroTouch research, development, and publicity activities. There are many media shootings and tours from home and abroad. Let's aim to become a mental arithmetic master while enjoying various events and experiences that can only be enjoyed at a lab centers.

In-Person class and Online Class

There is a “In-Person course” where you can take classes once a week in the classroom and a “Online course” where you can take online classes at home.

Iidabashi Center Facilitator Introductions

Wakae Miya

Graduated from Aoyama Gakuin University, Department of English and American Literature. Majored in education during an exchange program in the United States. When I was a student, I was a teacher at a cram school, and after graduating, I worked as a teacher at a public junior high school. I have been learning abacus for about 7 years since I was in elementary school. The ability to learn with the abacus and mental calculation skills is different, but with SoroTouch you can learn mental calculation skills efficiently in a short period of time. I aim to create an environment where students can enjoy acquiring "mental calculation skills" that will be a lifelong asset and "the ability to learn" that is the foundation of learning while communicating with parents.

Riho Yoshizu

Graduated from the Faculty of Education, Waseda University.
In the process of supporting the learning of children with roots in foreign countries, I saw first-hand that the ability to calculate can be a strong skill that can be used everywhere. In the SoroTouch center, we help children learn autonomously with fun activities so that they can acquire mental calculation skills that will be their lifelong assets. I aim to create a class where students can tell me not only just the problems they are struggling with but also happy reports of "I did it!". Let's learn little by little every day to nurture your "strength" and take a big step that leads to any dream!

Keiko Iwasa

In addition to teaching at the Aoyama Center, I am also responsible for developing the curriculum and analyzing students' learning history data. Majoring in Topology at the Mathematics Department of Tokyo Womens University, I entered the Bank of Japan after graduating. I was in charge of building a system that utilized AI technology, then lectured at a culture school. Using my own experiences in raising children, critical thinking skills, and knowledge in mathematics, I am proud to be teaching and developing our curriculum on a daily basis. By carefully selecting what needs to be prioritized, and repetitively concentrating on the priority, I do my best to provide quality rather than quantity. Even though there are obstacles that can be difficult to be overcome, my aim for our curriculum is for students to happily feel, "I did it by myself!"

Hazuki Kuribayashi

In addition to teaching at Iidabashi Lab Center, I am also working in the planing development. I have been learning the abacus since I was 5 years old and have acquired a mental calculation level 2dan.
I hope that the students will have fun learning mental calculation skills using SoroTouch. I will strive to maximize the potential of students while sharing the small joy of “I made it!” with them.

Chika Yamauchi

I would like to help create an unforgettable experience for children through SoroTouch. By implementing the abacus mental calculation method into technology, I believe that education will become more efficient and customized for each individual. In SoroTouch, students go over the curriculum materials by completing missions every day at home. At the center, we make sure that the students are effectively learning the material. By gathering at the center, students enjoy competing and cooperating with their friends in games. The center experience provides students with a great time with the other students and instructors. I always wonder what would optimize potential capabilities in each student. By using history data and advanced IT technology, I hope to improve education from different aspects, along with students and their parents.
