Just found this Straits Times report on how the owners of the Shichida center in Singapore are suing their ex-employees:

http://www.shichidamethod.com/ST_report_090505.html

The Shichida site also has links to two other articles in Chinese.

I think they are quite transparent in sense of the above. Last year when I went to the school to register for the course they did put up a notice that they will be suing the other school and make it very clear that that school is not supported by Shichida. I guess too many parents asking about it.
A fair word - both schools are good, I went to the other school twice the staff are friendly so are the teachers. And same goes to Shichida school, when I have questions, my son's teacher will take time to answer them patiently even through I ask alot of silly things.

I have been to the Shichida School once to ask for details maybe we are just looking for information to decide how to arrange our little gal to join, I find that they are in a quite reservative to tell us their method of teaching.  They just brought us to a room to see the video of which shows Shichida and some Japanese game.. even we asked for further details, they would say that you can see from the video the sucessful cases in joining their programme...  maybe they are the authorized person to teach in Singapore thus trying any chance to leak out the secret? unsure

Hi NMY,
What are the details you want to ask? Can you please sent me an pm? I see if I am able to check for you.
But I think sometimes right brain programme very hard to explain, I know that it works but how it actually works I don't know but I have seen and heard alot of successful stories.
If you are interested to know more about the Shichida methods, you can purchase the books written by Pro. Shichida. He actually try to explain alot of staff in details. For Eng version you can order direct from Shichida method at Japan.
If you are located in Singapore and reads Chinese, his translated copies are sold at some book stores.

Hope this helps!

Thanks alot luckymommy1307, yes after that visit the staff has told us about the books written by Shichida and we did bought several of these books and since my hb does not know Chinese, he did order directly from Japan.  As far as per my understanding, they are using some games to help the children to train their right brain and may be we are not as specialist as them it is hard for us to perform it at home by following their method.  Actually I have not yet started to train my gal with their proposed game yet, need to read the books again before execution to prevent making mistake. Did you follow their method to play the game with your child too, maybe we can share our experience here. smile

Hi NMY,
I actually had posted the games being played at my son's class not long ago, but I don't know how to trace back Sad
Let me go through one by one and pm you the link.
And another parent did done up the ((Shichida) Maths programme in LM, u might want to download them? It's called 65 days programme.
And now that we attended the class, and would like to say that actually the method is being taught in the books, so are some of games.
So far I am only flashing cards and have yet to start others. Lazy mom.

Thanks a lot, luckymommy, actually now I am planning to buy some Shichida game to train up her right mind, I lately just find a web site in China of which can order for this kind of product but since there are many, I don't know how to choose the right one for my gal, could you tell me what kind of game your child is going through... I am now stationed in Hong Kong here got no official Shichida class that I really have no idea in stepping up the progress. I just play flashcard with gal gal and when she was about 10 mths old I use the organe card with a blue point to ask her to focus.  Lately using some pair cards to ask her to pair up but not covering the same to ask her to choose the identical pair as I want to make sure that she can name the pictures , say apple, organe, banana, first before going to the next seeing through step as stated in the book.. really got no idea if I am now doing the correct one as here got no class, what i am now trying to do is to follow what he stated in the books only.  Really glad that here got your advice for sharing too...
 THanks

Hi NMY,
I had sent you a pm, kindly check if you rec'd it?
You are on the right track my friend smile
You might want to sent your daughter to right brain school at HK, Trinity Papa's daughter also attending......you can check with him which school is better as read from his posts he's a super good father as he had done a lot of research on early education and right brain staffs.  the way I see it is, all these school offer about the same thing.

Let me know if you need further details.
