I started teaching in 2015 when a group of parents from Phillips Andover Academy emailed me in early April, asking if I'd be interested in coaching a group of five contestants. At the time I called it "Andover Olympiad Training", and would make a trip up north from MIT every Sunday to work with them.
Since then word has gotten around, and more and more requests have come to me. I now teach 10-15 contestants each semester from both coasts, meeting them online during my evenings and the weekends, in lieu of studying for my actual classes. Thus my part-time job is to work with some of the most talented and motivated math high schoolers in the country on the same problems that I loved so much back in high school. I have the best job in the world.
孩子九年级的时候，借Mathcounts做题快的东风，AMC12 考了全美五、六十名的样子，进USAMO前270 就比较轻松了。
后来想进MOP，整天做证明题，做计算题速度明显下降，十年级的时候AMC12勉强1%，当时全美大概有八百多个成绩是top1%, 去掉AMC12A&B重复成绩，大概有600个美国学生排在孩子前面。再后来用了洪荒之力，AIME考了前几十名，才又进了USAMO。
一个5年级JMO, 10年级拿牌
一个7年级JMO, 12年级拿牌，对升学其实已经没啥帮助了。
俺娃要是这么聪明用功悟性高，我宁愿ta能去自学一点各个不同分支的数学，哪怕统计算法也好。不过娃长大了，父母说啥都是耳旁风
你一查就知道我说的是谁了
一个和当时总统握手
一个进奥数国家队
都是做题为乐的
太牛了！
我们是为了SO留在公高的，想让他练习领导船。
如果当时知道第二EC（数学）会变成第一EC，应该会推他去私高
娃上学期学abstract algebra，说课上了半个学期，都没超出Even Chen书里的一章。

倒是简明扼要。
能把这个project啃下来的中学生都是学神。
往往孩子越来越丑，不招人待见。
Evan Chen在全世界高中数学的圈子里的地位如同明月一般，我家娃是他的铁粉。

大神这份对数学的爱大概是人口中0.01%，比赚百万年薪还稀缺
他献身英才教育虽然是非常了不起的事情，不过也希望看到他像Terence Tao一样，用万里挑一的脑子为世界多解决一些难题。
