This helps in long term retention of the concept. 2) Spaced Repetition: The concept is repeated at different intervals and through different formats to help in retention. 3) Active Reasoning: The child is presented with contextual clues or thinking points while understanding a problem to keep the mind actively involved in solution of the problem. 4) Visualization: Concepts are presented visually to aid better understanding and retention. Each of the topic is covered very comprehensively, starting with theoretical concepts, followed by problems in 4 levels: Easy, Normal, Super and Olympiad.
