'Wonder Kids' In Odisha Show Remembering Big Dictionaries Is Cakewalk

Bhubaneswar: Dictionary is a treasure trove of words and to remember each word along with its page number is certainly not a child’s game. But for a group of children in Bhubaneswar, it is just likely driving a hot knife through butter.

All the words in a 400-page dictionary along with the page number are completely etched in the minds of these wonder kids. “We learn by relating words with cartoon characters. This technique helps me to learn and remember lot of things quickly and easily,” said Krishna Vardhan, a standard V student.

Not only this, the children can solve complex mathematics without using any electronic gadgets. Their memory is sharp and is no less than a super computer.

All these 'wonder kids' are students of Superb Mind Education Centre in Bhubaneswar and being trained by Atal Bihari Mallick.

“We are able to learn the words in dictionary in less than 4 hours. Whatever we have achieved, it is only due to the hard work and technique of our teacher,” said Subrat Sahu, a class VIII student.

According to Mallick, the students have processed their brains just like data is arranged in a dictionary.

“The students have now learnt the exact science of the human brain for which they are able to do maths and answer questions at ease,” said Mallick.
