“The purpose of education in the future will not be to create people with heads crammed full of knowledge, but to rear children who know how to efficiently use the whole brain. Rearing children with enormous ability, rich creativity, and the capability to make use of high proportion of their brain should be the goal of child rearing."Professor Makoto Shichida

  What is the Shichida Method?
  Professor Shichida has a proven system highly regarded as the methodology which will be influential in this century. To develop a high quality child, it is important to examine both character formation and learning abilities as a wholesome approach to child rearing.

  The purpose of education is not to teach knowledge and skills but to create a well-balanced child with enormous abilities, rich creativity and the ability to use a huge proportion of the brain. These can only be achieved without stress and a right parent-child relationship.

  The main characteristic of The Shichida Method™ is its concentration on its whole-brain education which will build up a big dream in a child to contribute his best to this world.
  
  

  When is the critical period of training the brain?
  We promote whole-brain education by developing the right brain and connecting it to the left-brain, allowing both sides of the brain to work together in balance.

  The right brain is the more important hemisphere to influence the quality of the left-brain. For example, the right brain enables the child to learn subconsciously as well as enable the brain to be able to automatically process large amounts of information at high speed whereas the left-brain is able only to process small amounts of information at low speed.

  Ages 0-3 is the period in which the child maximizes the utilization of the right brain. From ages 4-6, the child would start to switch to using the left-brain. Henceforth, the critical period of training the brain would be from ages 0-3. If the child is older, techniques will be taught by the Professor on how to modify the negative aspects.

  If the brain is well nurtured, the child will develop a great vision about learning and can handle any challenges with ease for the rest of his life. Further on in life, it will be more difficult to modify the learning capability.
  
  What is the difference between Shichida programme and that of others ?
  Some other methods use mainly flashcards or worksheets for their training whereas The Shichida Method™ focus on drawing out the innate imagery system in learning through fun techniques. Parents will be taught how to use stimulating materials during the public seminar. We provide parents the foundation to help their children and not to over-emphasise academic performance, much seen in other types of programmes.
  
  

  Is Shichida programme different from others who claimed that theirs are right-brain training as well?
  Although the right brain is important, The Shichida Method™ emphasizes on parent-child bonding to develop a good and successful child, be it in academic or non-academic fields. The evidence provided by parents across Japan, Singapore and Malaysia are confirming the essence of Professor Shichida's 40 years of research. The children are wonderful because their parents realise the importance of conveying love to their children and knowing how to do so.

  You need to be careful and check the source of other progammes as the brain of a young child is very delicate and once wired wrongly, is difficult to undo any damage.

  Is the half day seminar enough?
  The seminar aims to create an awareness in parents that there are many possibilities in bringing out the genius qualities in their very own children. There will be practical tips and demonstrations to help you get started right away in your own home programme for your kids.

  Can older children benefit?
  Though we recognize that the best period to work with children is when they are below six, we have seen some pretty remarkable results with older children as well.

  Can we adults benefit, too?
  When adults use the same techniques in their own lives, they get flashes of inspiration to guide them at work and in everyday situations. They make accurate, lightning decisions on their feet anywhere, anytime.

  What about children with brain injury, mental retardation or Down's Syndrome?
  Some measures of inability are based on current models of left-brain performance. But, some of these kids have good right brains. We have seen some exciting results coming from our work with these groups as well.

  Will it mess up my child's head?
  This is a well tested and documented method that has been developed over many years in Japan. Many parents have been giving high acclaims to the results they've seen in their own children.

  Can I succeed by just reading Shichida books?
  Though not impossible, some of the techniques I will be showing you are very specific, having refined them through many years of testing. I will also show you how to make your own equipment to save some money.

  How do I register?
  Just fill out the registration form and send it to the organizer with your fees attached. The best seats go to the early birds.
