Vedic Maths is an age-old secret and India’s gift to the whole world. Today the world is awakening to realize this great magic. The confidence that Vedic Maths instills into the child from an early age is simply unbelievable. If you want to be part of or contribute to this amazing growing phenomenon then becoming a Vedic Maths Teacher is one great way to achieve this.
Who can become the Vedic Maths Teacher
Vedic Maths course is an alternate way to learn the mathematics concepts and it covers pretty much every Math topic which exists and is taught in regular math at schools or colleges, be it basic arithmetic, algebra or even advanced topics like trigonometry, calculus or geometry. The list is endless. Any person who has a good handle on basic Math concepts as taught via traditional means can become the Vedic Maths teacher, irrespective of the fact if he is already a Math tutor, or a working professional, or a musician or anyone else.
What is Vedic Maths and how is it different from traditional way of teaching Maths
- Vedic Maths is the fastest and traditional Mathematics Framework based on Indian Vedas. It was developed by Sri Bharathi Krishna Tirtha and is the most sought-after Maths course today since it tremendously improves the Math calculation speed and is fun-filled at the same time. Kids just love it.
- Vedic Maths course makes use of shortcut tricks and formulas to arrive at an answer. Whether it is arithmetic question or a geometry question, there are shortcuts defined for every step using which the overall time needed to solve he question reduces to great extent.
- Most important fact is that to solve every step.
Preconditions to become a Vedic Maths teacher
- Basic Maths background and overall understanding of the Maths concepts since at the end of the day you still need to explain the Maths logic how does any Math topic like Geometry or Calculus add value in real life.
- Logical reasoning skills and Analytical abilities – Vedic Maths is very interesting and involves many permutations and combinations of multiple solutions to solve any problem. Hence it is important to possess the basic level of Logical reasoning skills and Analytical abilities to develop a strong hold in learning Vedic Maths.
- Passion to Teach and Connect with students – Once you learn Vedic Maths yourself, the next step is to teach to the kids and for this, you need to learn the art of being an effective teacher. The secret here is to develop the connection and strong bond with the kids so that open up with you as a teacher and look forward to every session. Remember that if the student is happy to take the classes, it is half battle already won for both teacher and the parent (as compared to if parents or teacher have to push the kids to attend the classes forcibly). So, you should love interacting with the students if you have to be a successful teacher.
- Willingness to learn something new – Remember that Vedic Maths can be defined as a different language to solve Mathematics problems and questions. It is like learning a new Math slanguage and you must possess the willingness to face the typical challenges that come whenever we do something new (be it in the field of sports, or education or art). But surely it is fun.
- Patience and Practice (more than hard work) – While learning a Vedic Math shortcut is very easy, the key is to practice that trick such that you develop a good hold and fluency. Then as we mentioned before there are multiple tricks that can solve a given problem, hence practice is needed to evaluate which short cut trick is best suited in a given scenario, This can only be achieved by being patient, and by practicing more and more. So to be a Vedic Maths expert you have to be the Tortoise, if we take the example of race between rabbit and tortoise.
How should I look for a Vedic Maths training school
- The best way is to look online for the academies that provide vedic maths teacher training courses, since today there are many training schools available. So you need to make an effort to identify the right tutor. I would suggest that you must not rush and prioritize the teacher skills over any other factor (like a bog brand or the location).
- I myself chose a lesser-known organization mathcruise.com for learning Vedic Maths course, but which I heard great feedback for (from my friends as well as they have wonderful google review from the parents and the teachers that they have trained in past). They have a very interesting and fully online teacher training program where they not only provide the complete training, but also provide infrastructure support (in terms of their copyrighted books) and also provide reverse shadow support to make you comfortable when you start your first batch of students. This gives you immense confidence since you are new in the teaching world. Their chief trainer has a passion for Maths and it reflects immediately when you speak to her. So, you must explore their online teaching program and then make your own choice.
