The New Highest Level, "X Stage", Available on June 23

SoroTouch has 3 levels, each divided into 12 stages: J (junior: beginner), S (super: intermediate) and U (ultra: advanced).
We will soon be releasing a new “X Stage” to improve the accuracy and constancy of mental calculation skills for students who have completed the advanced “U stage”. From April 2022, the new level will become available at the Iidabashi and Aoyama Lab Schools.
It is scheduled to be released on Thursday, June 23.

The purpose of the X Stage

Once you clear "U12", you will acquire a mental calculation level equivalent to the first grade of mental calculation. To establish and maintain your mental calculation ability, it is important to continue using it every day. If you can use it daily, such as in school or cram school, your mental calculation skills will become engrained in you.
However, elementary school students have a risk of forgetting how to use mental calculation due to a lack of practice after finishing U12. Currently, 75% of learners who have cleared U12, repeat U12 multiple times. They do this to keep their mental calculation skills sharp, and to increase their accuracy. Some students even return to the U1-U11 stages and continue learning through review. “X Stage” will be created for children who have cleared U12, in order to further improve their mental calculation ability, and make it a lifetime asset.

Learning content of X stage

The X stage is the highest grade course that uses the same 5-digit board as the U stage to improve the accuracy of mental calculation while having fun.

The excitement of the X stage

36 fish are available on J stage, S stage, U stage, and Aqua Park!
What will happen to the X stage?
We could maybe look forward to "Everyone’s Aqua Park" in the classroom too!! ??
