[quote=Anonymous]My American born Asian kid is great at math, and I swear that I did not supplement. We are full time working parents, so we had no choice but sent him to daycare when he was little. Once he learnt phonics, he learnt how to read books by himself. Once he learnt basic math, he figured out the logic and learned multiplication and division by himself from youtube and other resources. One he learned the basic chess from daycare, he went to find adults to play chess with him etc. Well, he is competitive and self-motivated to learn and at the same time he spent hours playing video games daily. He does not need to study to excel and there is no study habit because he does not need one. He is also one of the troubled kid at school because he is bored. So, he has the typical stereotypes of asian kid being smart but he is also troubled (non typical stereotype) at the same time. I don't think teacher likes him though. [/quote]
