Mangalore, Mar 17: The Abacus Learning of Higher Arithmetic (ALOHA) learning centre organized a presentation and live demonstration about ALOHA to help the parents on March 12 at the St Joseph's School at Kulshekar here.

The ALOHA is a brain development programme intended to improve children's ability to calculate sums mentally, listening skills and also the ability to concentrate on academic subjects. The ALOHA is basically meant for children between the age group of 6 and 14 years as the grasping power of the children at this age is the best.

Mohan Baland, founder of the first ALOHA Learning Centre in Mangalore (in 2005), demonstrated the ALOHA concept with two ALOHA students Manu and Meghana who impressed the crowd by solving the sums with an amazing speed. In fact, the children calculated a huge sum much faster than adults who tried to compete with the children using a calculator!

Though ALOHA has around 55 centers and around 3,000 students are presntly undergoing the training all over Karnataka, the number of centres in the coastal districts is very few. In Mangalore, about 1,000 students are undergoing training in Mangalore.

Around 30 parents have done the spot registration after the demonstration for the summer camp starting April 3. The ALOHA Learning Center at Kulshekar has been
founded by Pramod D'Souza, who is a software engineer by profession and is an alumni of NITK, Suratkal.

Parents who are interested in sending their children to ALOHA programme may contact Pramod on his cell 98457 87003.
