Has Ho Math Chess program proven effective?

Yes, statistical analysis had done to compare the before and after effect and it has showed significant difference among students who took Ho Math Chess program. Ho Math Chess Illinois integrated math and chess program has been approved by the USA, Illinois State Board of Education as a SES (Supplemental Educational Services) provider for math tutoring. The Illinois (USA) data has shown that Ho Math Chess teaching method is statistically significant in raising students' math marks. At Ho Math Chess, we take an all around approach that encompasses work on traditional calculation problems in math, chess, and puzzles mixed format. These worksheets require students to further develop their calculative skills in addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. As a result, these activities end up stimulating more of their brain cells. In addition, children are challenged by word problem-solving types of questions and mathematical chess puzzles to further develop their problem solving ability. The gained chess knowledge enhances their critical thinking skills. The learning happens in an educational, fun environment and we all know kids learn best when they are having fun.

Why is it called REAL Ho Math Chess?

When Mr. Ho and his wife Amanda invented integrated math, chess, and puzzles workbooks and integrated them into math curriculum, it was a hit, children really liked the innovative teaching method and that is one reason that they are able to franchise the unique and effective teaching concept worldwide. So it is not surprising that there are some followers or imitators who decide to copy their ideas but could never get the real meaning of how to integrate math, chess and puzzles all into one workbook because Ho Math Chess holds the copyright and trademarks of many innovative teaching technologies and these cannot be legally copied. By playing chess in a math class is not the

real meaning of math and Chess. Ho Math Chess holds copyrights and trademark of math, chess, and puzzles all integrated materials and knows how to teach real and integrated math , chess and puzzles all in one class.
Parents in Vancouver must make sure to go to Room #1 to talk to either Frank Ho or Amanda Ho to learn the real math and chess integrated teaching method. The other great thing about Ho Math Chess is parents only pay one fee but elementary students get to learn math, chess, puzzles, word problems, math contest quality problems all at the same time. Without paying extra fees. Secondary students pay one math fee and also get help in chemistry, physics, calculus, and science at the same time.

22

What is the fee and class size at Vancouver location?

The math class size has a limitation of up to 6 students and parents pay monthly but get discount if paying by term. All classes are conducted in English.

How is the Vancouver Ho Math Chess teaching environment?

We do not have grocery type of teaching environment where you can hear others talking from other classes all the time. All our classrooms are divided with real walls and have doors and there are no distractions from other classes.

What is Vancouver Ho Math Chess teachers background?

All classes at Ho Math Chess are mainly taught by Frank Ho and Amanda Ho who invented the idea of teaching math using chess and puzzles and integrated them into math curriculum. Frank has master degree in Science and Amanda has Bachelor degree in Science. Frank is a BC certified math teacher and has been tutoring over 20 years with over 30 math workbooks and over 80 research articles published. Frank Ho specializes in teaching children from age 4 and up and is an expert in teaching young children math. Amanda is a multi-subject expert who teaches math, chemistry, physic, calculus and science all at the same time so that parents need only to pay one subject fee and their children can get help in multiple subjects. Both Frank and Amanda also teach chess along with other subjects, so students learn chess free at Ho Math Chess. Ho Math Chess also has other math and chess specialists who work along with Frank and Amanda to form a helpful and caring team.

How does Ho Math Chess differ from others?

The major difference is our unique teaching method and special math, chess, math contests quality problems, and puzzles integrated workbooks. There is also another difference which sets us apart from others that is children tell us that they are much happier with Ho Math Chess. At Ho Math Chess, we teach children how to think and we have teaching materials to do that and this all done in a fun and happy environment. We do not just raise kids math marks higher, we want them to learn math with fun and happiness. We also want kids to be able to think well and that is why we have used not only typical math problems, but also chess and puzzles to teach children how to think.

23

Can Vancouver Ho Math Chess help my child prepare for private school entrance exams?
If a student has enrolled our program for a few years and followed all our instructions then the students math ability actually will exceed the SSAT standard. We also offer special private school
entrance exam prep classes such as SSAT for St. Georges, St. Johns, Crofton, WPGA, York House, Little Flower, VC etc. or public mini schools or their challenging math programs. Students recommended by Ho Math Chess have had high acceptance rate by Vancouvers private schools due to the fact that we are a reputable international organization with worldwide locations and its headquarter is in Vancouver and founded by Mr. Frank Ho (BC certified math teacher and taught St. Georges summer school for over 10 years, Ho Math Chess still offers summer program at St. Georges) and his wife Amanda Ho is a well-known multi-subject teacher specializing in concurrently teaching math, calculus, chemistry, Physics, and Science with paying only one subject fee. Frank Ho specializes in teaching children fun math who are 4 years or older. Frank and Amanda have jointly published over 80 research articles in math teaching.

Is it important that a child learn math at very young age?

We feel that it is very important that a child learn how to think even at very young age. We can see the dramatic difference a good learning environment can do to a child that is to send child to a learning centre which stresses thinking not just computation. A child can learn faster and will have less headache if a child is trained how to think and realizes the importance of thinking all the time. Ho Math Chess provides many tools to encourage children to think, one of these tools is chess which means a child may be defeated if no thinking is executed when playing chess and a lesson can be learned from the opponent. A puzzle can provide children to discover the solution with imagination and creativity instead of using taught algorithm and this is very important also to train childrens patience and selflearning ability. Math contest quality problems provide children with challenging and their learning and thinking are not bound by the limits of what they learn at day schools. Ho Math Chess provides children with math, chess, and puzzles integrated worksheets such as Frankho Puzzles and Frankho Mazes to provide integrated training in logic, math and puzzles and endless fun. Math at Ho Math Chess is not just doing computation and be able to get answers with timed limit, we want them to think and we want their brain trained to be able to think out of box and be sharp too. With the amount training children receive from Ho Math Chess at very young age, it is only natural for them to get A in math.

24

Why real Ho Math Chess is so special and unique?

Children are not convinced when they were told math will be useful to them in the future (they want fun NOW.), they often talk about video games among themselves and play computer games on their cell phones, but not math. The way to entice children to learn math is to foster a learning environment which is fun for them to learn. For this, many math educators have failed and many kids are still waiting to discover that learning math is fun. For students at Ho Math Chess, the waiting is over since Ho Math Chess sets itself apart from other learning centers or chess clubs in one unique teaching method that is it truly integrates chess and puzzles into math curriculum. Ho Math Chess believes children learn best when they have fun; with this in mind, Ho Math Chess fosters a learning environment that is not only educational but also a fun place to learn math. What we Do We offer tutoring services in mathematics for pre-k through Grade 12 students. Our teaching method is unique - children learn while having fun and our workbooks are innovative and proven effective not only in raising math marks, but also in improving problem-solving ability. Our computation techniques do not deviate from the method taught in traditional educational settings. No memorization on special rules required when performing computations. The computation methodology the students will learn at Ho Math Chess is completely in line with their school work so there will be no confusion. However, using our teaching method, it will enhance a child's ability to understand math better. We have designed a curriculum to inspire children to understand the relationships between basics math operations. The relationships between chess and math students learned at Ho Math Chess will enhance their understanding of math concepts. We align our math curriculum to any federal, state, provincial, or local standards. Using an integrative approach, the purposes of Ho Math Chess program are to: Raise math marks. Develop problem solving ability. Advance chess knowledge. Boost brainpower. Improve memory.
