It’s great how you actually went step by step but not too slowly. I found an old abacus last week and have seen it through the years since I was a small child, and I remembered wondering how it worked but nobody knew. So last night it occurred to me I could look it up so easily. Lots of videos are good, but I really want to teach myself to think with the abacus in mind and this really helps to practice, so thank you.
I like how you mention semiconductors in the introduction, then later while using the abacus you said "clear the register". The abacus does really work like a CPU register.
Just watched a news article. This tool good for the brain. Improves concentration, memory retention, etc, etc. American education system is slow. Love channels like this!
Thanks for the great video. I've been wanting to buy an abacus in order to sharpen my mind. I notice that your abacus is different from the Japanese soroban, which has 4 beads on the lower side. I just subscribed and will be raiding your channel for more videos on the abacus. Thanks again.
I've always loved abacus, one of my favorite toys. Now, in my later life I'm using a workbook to practice and gain proficiency. It's relaxing, and fun, and others have said it's helps the mind stay fit. I believe it! Also there are beautiful abacus for different purpose, and im a proud owner of a few! Thanks for these videos, they help too!
0:34 Light years is a measure of distance. To say an abacus and a modern device are technologies that seem light years away is an interesting expression that seems to me to be incorrect if taken literally; especially for me with my phone in my hands, resting on the abacus in my lap. I suppose as a metaphor, I’ll give you license to use this vastly hyperbolic expression.
Please check out my channel. I have made over 20 videos on basic math skills - Lessons 1-22 thus far. I plan to continue making videos until I reach my own ability to explain math - somewhere around trig/calculus.
Thank you❤ so much for this wonderful video. This really helped me a lot in learning abacus from beginning. Lots of love from India🇮🇳 .keep making such videos,I will support you ❤❤
Japanese abacus is "cleaner" for addition. But when multiplication comes in, base 16 has a slight advantage over base 10. For the most part, there's a negligible difference between them in terms of speed of calculation.
Saludos desde Puerto Rico. Me encanta este abacus, mas que el japonés, pero son muy pocos los videos sobre este ábaco con doble hilera arriba. Me gustaría mucho que explicara cómo se hace la multiplicación y sobre todo las divisiones.

Does it help literacy
Great. It is very clear how you represent by "clearing and representing by another"
I love way you teach the Chinese abacus. It's simpler than the Japanese abacus. I love learning. Thank you
Thank you Charlene, i'm watching your c. abacus from Bangladesh 🇧🇩.
Thank you for the easy tutorial. I really appreciate it. I really wanted to learn how to use abacus. Glad to see your video.

Once you have master the physical abacus, the next advance stage will be mental abacus.

Thanks for the video. I find it helpful. Could you please make another for subtraction, multiplication and dividion?❤❤❤

This helps so much I will be learning on how this works and do some math with it👍😃
Awesome. Thank you.
Your video is to helpful ☺️☺️☺️

Isn't the japanese abacus more "efficient", without the extra bead in the "heaven" part?
The Chinese is better for more complex math

Chinese invention Abacus "Suanpan" 中國算盤 are still used in Mainland China ansd Hong Kong! ♥♥♥
Cool. Awesome. Thanks.
Thank you ma'am
