What Parents Say

Xander

Xander

We switched from traditional abacus lessons to SoroTouch because we wanted our child to develop strong mental maths skills without relying on a physical abacus. The game-based learning makes practice fun, and we love being able to easily track progress.

Rena

Rena

My older daughter is an advanced traditional abacus student, but traditional abacus just wasn’t the right fit for my younger daughter. Since discovering SoroTouch, she has enjoyed learning through its colourful, game-based approach. She loves seeing her progress and being motivated by her classmates. The weekly Zoom classes also make learning fun through team challenges and friendly competition.

Max

My son started traditional abacus at 4½, but found it difficult to move the small beads accurately. SoroTouch changed everything — its touch-based, game-style learning made maths fun. He can now solve two-digit multiplication and division in seconds, giving him confidence that extends beyond maths.

My daughter struggled with numbers and could barely count to 20, but within just one month of SoroTouch, she was counting beyond 200. She can now solve simple multi-step calculations too.

Beyond mental maths, both children have developed better focus, learning habits and grit. They love competing with friends in their weekly classes and challenging themselves in the monthly Global Grand Prix!

Mia and Ray

Mia & Ray

In Year 1, my daughter’s teacher told us she was struggling with maths. We considered Kumon, traditional abacus and other programs, but after seeing how quickly SoroTouch students could calculate using the two-handed method, we knew we had found the right program.

Her calculation skills improved dramatically, and so did her confidence. She proudly told us she was often the first in class to finish calculations, and in Year 3, she achieved the highest band in NAPLAN Numeracy.

The app’s built-in explanations have also been a great help when she gets stuck, especially as we had no previous abacus experience. We’ve also really appreciated the flexible make-up classes and Aya’s ongoing support.

Her younger brother loved watching her play the learning games and recently started SoroTouch himself. He now enjoys progressing through each stage like a game!

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What devices can I use?

A: SoroTouch is available on iOS and Android. Please download the app first to check compatibility with your device.

Q: Can I reschedule a class?

A: Yes. We offer flexible make-up classes when your child needs to miss their regular class.

Q: What age can children start?

A: The ideal starting age is 5–8 years old, but children can start earlier or later depending on their readiness. If your child can recognise numbers from 1–10 and understand the learning videos, they are welcome to try. Older children and adults can also join. Start with our 1-month free trial, and we’ll help determine the best starting level.

Q: Does my child need previous abacus experience?

A: Not at all. SoroTouch is designed for beginners, with videos and game-based activities that make learning easy and enjoyable. The app automatically tracks and analyses progress, so parents don’t need any abacus experience to support their child.

Q: Can experienced abacus students join?

A: Absolutely. Children with previous abacus experience or strong calculation skills are very welcome.

The app adapts to each child’s level, and advanced students may be able to skip ahead after an assessment.

SoroTouch is especially valuable for children who can calculate quickly with a physical abacus but struggle without one. By developing visual mental calculation, they learn to calculate quickly without an abacus — a skill they can use in school, tests and exams.

Q: How much practice is needed at home?

A: Each daily mission takes around 15 minutes. We encourage students to complete at least one mission a day, but families can set goals that suit their child. Parents don’t need to teach mental maths — encouragement and consistency are what matter most.

Q: What if my child struggles with maths?

A: SoroTouch can be a great option for children who find maths challenging. We especially recommend trying our 1-month free trial to see if it’s the right fit for your child. Through videos, games and interactive learning, children can enjoy practising while building mental maths skills and confidence at their own pace.
