Universal Concept of Mental Arithmetic System (UCMAS)

UCMAS is a scientifically proven mental development programme aimed at maximizing brain development in children at an early age. Founded by Dr. Dino Wong in 1993 in Malaysia, UCMAS has become a global leader in mental arithmetic education.

Maurya Education is the proud promoter of UCMAS across 20 countries in Africa. Since its initiation in 2007 in Ghana, we have helped thousands of students gain arithmetic quickness, regardless of the level of complexity, while fostering a deep-seated love for learning.
