Dr. Yip, Matthew Siu Ting, a licensed primary and secondary mathematics teacher in Hong Kong and a distinguished professor (Prof. Mathewmatician), has set eight world records from August to December 2024, set the world record called “The licensed primary and secondary math teacher who has set the most world records in the field of primary and secondary education”, which involves publication, public examinations, columns, news reports, magazines, awards, etc.
As the founder and chairman of the "Global Mathematics and Mathematics Olympiad Graded Assessment Test with Competition" and the designer of the "Mathewmatician’s Dictionary", Matthew Yip has won more than 35 international awards or honors (such as The GOAT in Mathematics Education, The Greatest Emerging Mathematics Educator, World-class mathematics educator, Top mathematics educator, Medal of the King of Thailand, Lifetime Achievement Award of the UK Parliament, etc.), readers of his works come from more than 50 countries or regions, and his students have won more than 30 different highest-level honors or awards, preparing questions and giving lectures for mathematics competitions in universities and primary and secondary schools. Due to his extraordinary achievements, many magazines invited Matthew to appear on their magazine covers and cover stories, and even Elon Musk and Bill Gates appeared on The International Magazine (TIM for short) on the same cover to promote his philosophy on mathematics education and use his story to encourage young people on how to gradually move from an ordinary person to the road to success. In addition, Matthew has been reported by more than 400 well-known domestic and foreign media.
Matthew Yip was born into an ordinary family. His father was a bus captain and his mother was a housewife. However, he discovered his passion for mathematics and education, and was determined to become the best in the industry. With his unswerving will, he successfully became a doctor of mathematics and education at the same time (and was later awarded an honorary doctorate), 8 Mathematical Olympiad coaching licenses and has taught in the Olympiad Mathematical Olympiad coach training courses, written a number of bilingual mathematics education books in Chinese and English (junior high school and primary school mathematics textbooks, abacus mental arithmetic learning and teaching textbooks, Olympic mathematics textbook series, mathematics teaching method textbooks, etc.), and taught more than 120 different PhD, master's, bachelor's, associate degree, and diploma courses, teaching in more than 70 different secondary schools, primary schools, kindergartens, etc. During his many years of teaching, he has found ways to optimize current mathematics teaching and assessment models around the world.
As for the teaching model, Dr. Yip advocates that students should first understand and try it out on their own before accepting the teacher's teachings. This way, the reception effect will be better. It is also necessary to strengthen training on questions that students cannot answer correctly on their own to consolidate them until students can just rely on themself to get the answer right. Regarding assessment, Dr. Yip created the "Global Mathematics and Mathematics Olympiad Graded Assessment and Competition" based on his philosophy.
The "Global Mathematics and Mathematical Olympiad Graded Assessment Test with Competition" includes mathematics and Mathematical Olympiad assessments respectively. There are currently 16 levels, each level corresponding to one grade. There is no age limit for assessment. Like musical instrument exams, students with high mathematical proficiency can be certified through assessment more quickly, while students with weaker abilities can take the exam after they are well prepared. The incentive of obtaining certification will allow them to improve their basic skills. Get better at school. Participants of a certain age can participate in the "Global Mathematics and Mathematics Olympiad Graded Assessment" at the same time as the "Global Mathematics and Mathematics Olympiad Competition". They only need to complete one test paper, and the assessment and competition scores will be calculated separately at the same time. In addition, in addition to participants being certified, instructors will also be issued certificates.
The purpose of setting up mathematics and Mathematical Olympiad assessments at the same time is to use the two to coordinate with each other to set up their own course syllabus and avoid over-the-top assessments. In addition, a free test preparation system is provided to each participant to ensure the fairness of the assessment and the reliability of the results. As for the principles of setting the questions, there are three aspects:
1. Try to avoid losing points in the second part of the same question due to mistakes in the first part.
2. Clever but not troublesome, avoid cumbersome calculations
3. Avoid luck
The ordering of the questions is completely random because the organizer hopes to evaluate the candidates' ability to identify their topics only from the questions themselves. If the questions are sorted by topic or difficulty, there will be a prompt component. The grading criteria are formulated to achieve the principle of absolute fairness (the scores can absolutely reflect the true level of the examinee, that is, the comprehensive index composed of the knowledge level, difficulty, and workload required to obtain each score is the same), rather than just relative fairness (All candidates will be assessed using consistent standards). In addition, the marking reference lists the topics to which each question belongs to facilitate candidates' review and classification.
"Global Mathematics and Mathematics Olympiad Graded Assessment Test with Competition" has been certified by more than 20 different institutions from around the world and recommended by the Embassy of the Republic of Cameroon in China. As for the advisory group, there are dozens of people, representing different groups and professions, from more than ten countries, including China (including Hong Kong and Macau), Japan, India, the Republic of Rwanda, the United Arab Emirates, the United States of America, the United Kingdom, South Korea, Norway, Thailand, Sri Lanka, Singapore, Italy, Australia.
Finally, Dr. Yip expressed that he was deeply honored to finally set nine world records. He thanked the World Record Association for recognizing the results of his hard work over the years in a fair way and with a serious review attitude. He also hopes to use this to promote his philosophy of mathematics education and solve problems that have been solved for many years. To solve existing problems in mathematics education, let more people know how to learn mathematics better and improve the overall mathematics level!
