The Art of Fast Calculation - Vedic, Singapore and Mental Math

KICKSTARTER Project

As someone who competes in math and mentors younger students, I’ve seen how a small shift in strategy can make a huge difference in how students feel about math. Many kids give up too soon because they don’t know there’s another way. I want to change that by making Vedic Math accessible, fun, and empowering for everyone.

My first two books in the series have received incredible feedback from students, parents, and teachers. Now, the third book is nearly complete—but I need your support to take it across the finish line.
