Vedic maths are set of rules and tricks developed by ancient Indian mathematicians and saadhus, it is very good for developing quick calculation and understanding basic tricks and efficiency depends on how well you have practiced these things. Also you should note that you are not going to find the 10th root of 100 digit number in day to day life so learning tricks which are useless in daily life should not be the priority. Rather choose you domain of interest and then see how you can use Vedic maths there if there's no use then do something else. Pls don't run behind tricks and shortcuts no matter how quickly you can apply tricks but you can't defeat someone who has already crammed everything. For example I know values of fractions till 100 so you can't answer what is 1/17 as quickly as I can because I have already learnt it. So everything depends on usability and practicality read less

How can you teach 7-8 year old kid to learn/memorize tables. Since kids these days are taught logic of addition and arriving at the multiplication result, they are reluctant to memorize the tables.
you do not need to make them memorise tables, instead help them understand the logic behind the numbers, table learning will happen automatically.
