Female Math Valedictorian shares study secrets to always be a top student

That is Ly Hai Yen, a charming student from class 9B who has excellently achieved the title of Valedictorian of Math 2 class..

For those who have known Hai Yen, this result is not too surprising because this bright-faced, intelligent student has achieved many outstanding achievements throughout her 9 years of study. Especially in the 8th and 9th grade, Yen won a Silver Medal at the "Conquer the Future" Contest - an all-around contest organized by the Science and Education Department of Vietnam Television in coordination with the Ministry of Education and Training; won Second Prize, Encouragement Prize in the District Excellent Student Contest and the District-level Olympic Contest in Math and Chemistry.

In science and technology competitions, I won First Prize at the district level and Fourth Prize at the provincial level in the field of Embedded Systems with the project "Smart Study Lamp".

Hai Yen believes that the secret to achieving such “sweet results” is to determine clear, specific goals, have proactive, creative learning methods, allocate time, and have scientific learning methods between subjects. The most important thing is not to force yourself to try to do difficult exercises in a certain amount of time, but to create the most comfortable mentality for yourself, only then can you absorb knowledge effectively. In subjects, I mainly do homework in the evening and take advantage of the quiet time in the early morning to memorize theory. Then, I systematize the knowledge by writing it down on paper to help memorize it longer.

In all subjects, Yen is considered by teachers to be an excellent student. But she always has a special passion for Math. Hai Yen shared: The learning process, inspired by the subject teacher, has added motivation and will to light the fire of determination to always get the maximum score in this subject.

Yen said: "The interesting thing is that when studying Math, I can freely think, be creative, and freely expand my thinking without being constrained within a certain framework or following a rut. However, to study Math well, the first core thing is that students must understand theorems, definitions, properties, principles... to be able to apply them to do exercises. Because this subject has very diverse exercises, not bound to a certain type of question, but requires thinking and creativity, so students must be quick and find effective ways to respond.

These are considered the reasons why Mathematics has the attraction that helps Yen learn with all her passion. In class, she often pays attention to lectures to absorb all the knowledge the teacher imparts. At the same time, the teacher guides her to buy Math books by famous authors to learn more. In addition, Yen determines that studying with friends is also a good method, for example, in the theory part, you will be the one asking questions and she will be the one answering, so that there is a dialogue with each other.

Ms. Ho Thi Hoan - Math teacher for grade 9B, Ho Xuan Huong Secondary School said: In Math, Hai Yen is a talented, sharp student with a very good amount of knowledge. She is also determined, independent and what stands out about Yen compared to other students is that if she doesn't do the exercises, she doesn't do them, but when she does, she does them with confidence. With a serious and focused way of studying, Yen has a quick way of thinking, does her exercises meticulously, carefully, and with high accuracy.
