    thank you. i have struggled for years with any form of math, nothing i try works and my japanese friend just suggested i use a soroban she said my issue is in holding and manipulating temporal and spatial information and that i should be fine once i start using one as it will develop those abilities. so today is the day i start fixing those issues with the hopes that one day i too can math lol :)

      @zubby well its deffinitely helped, i dont have the issue of forgeting values half way though when using a soroban. its also in some part rubbed off when im not using it. its like my brain has started to change how it handles a number for example before i saw the number 6 in my mind when i thought of 6... now i see the equivelant in beads. im not sure how effective it is practically but i have seen a mild improvement in speed, accuracy and a reduction in losing track in the middle of working with numbers then having to go back and start again(big issue before). i havent been very diligant in using it though maybe a few times a week or every other week as ive been obsessed with sound design. but yeah im glad i started using one.

      Thank you for your interest. At this time, no. However, perhaps in the future I will give it consideration.

    I thought it was supposed to help me with my maths. Not make it harder. Lol

      It's more like a sport, even though I just discovered this. If you want your maths to be easier you'll have to be really studious
