Abacus learning goes beyond the four walls of the classroom. When your kids participate in our year-round programs, they will develop various lifelong skills including concentration, discipline, problem-solving, time management, and confidence.

At JAMS, we will help your child overcome the fear of numbers. Your child will become more confident and most importantly, he will gain an important lifelong skill. For more information, just visit JamsPortland.com to learn more about the teaching pillars of the abacus.
