Why we are going with 20 minutes class in Abacus?
In abacus course, we have 40 basic concepts. For every concept student learn the concept, do dictation related to that concept and pages related to that concept and the whole process takes 30 to 40 minutes (including time spending on doing pages). In 20 minutes class student learn the concept do the dictation and one page in the class. Rest of the pages he can do in the homework. But if we go with 40 minutes class he has to do same pages in the class and after completing pages student doesn’t have time to start a new concept. So, whether we go with 20 minutes class or more than 20 minutes class result will same i.e. student will complete all 40 concepts in 40 days.
