Young talents are emerging.
Cai Tianxi, 1977, from Wenzhou. His father is a famous education expert Cai. The Cai family has six children, Cai Tianxi is the youngest sister, and she has five brothers. Father didn't give Cai Tianxi everything she wanted because she was a "cute little cotton-padded jacket". On the contrary, because the father is an expert in education, he pays special attention to the education of six children.
No matter how poor you are, you can't be poor in academic qualifications. Cai Tianxi's childhood life was particularly bitter. At that time, people lived without food, and they were not very keen on educating their children. Therefore, as the only labor force in the family, the father failed to give his children a well-fed childhood. Father pays special attention to educating children by example in life, imparting knowledge to children in life and teaching the truth of being a man.
Cai Tianxi was very clever when he was a child. When she was four years old, her parents sent her to kindergarten to adapt her to a more systematic study life. However, Cai Tianxi didn't want to leave after a day's shopping. She thinks the kindergarten is full of childish things and is very boring. Parents also think that if Cai Tianxi continues to attend kindergarten, it will limit her development, so she is sent to primary school directly.
Cai Tianxi's academic performance in primary school can be described as singing all the way. At the age of 9, she won the first prize in the city's primary school mathematics competition, beating the senior students older than her. Cai Tianxi won the first prize at an early age, and her reputation as a "prodigy" spread all over the city. After the middle school teacher took an examination of Cai Tianxi, he was promoted directly to the second grade of junior high school. In four years, Cai Tianxi has learned all the knowledge of junior high school and senior high school.
199 1, Cai Tianxi took the college entrance examination and was admitted to the junior class of the University of Science and Technology of China. At that time, Cai Tianxi was only 14 years old and became a college student. Cai Tianxi's great achievements didn't stop at the university. Her achievements in the Chinese University of Science and Technology still beat her classmates in the same grade. In a large-scale exam for freshmen, all the students failed, and only Cai Tianxi got full marks.
Cai Tianxi is a veritable "child prodigy". A paper written by Cai Tianxi during her college years was seen by her tutor and she was directly recommended to go abroad for further study. However, she thinks that because she has been skipping classes on the way to school and has not followed the teacher's footsteps steadily and systematically, she thinks she can learn more from the professors of the Chinese University of Science and Technology. Therefore, Cai Tianxi declined the advice of his tutor and studied at the university for four years.
An open life needs no explanation.
Cai Tianxi 1995 graduated from the University of Science and Technology of China. Because she published many papers in college, she received invitations from dozens of famous foreign universities after graduation, including Harvard University and Massachusetts Institute of Technology. In the end, Cai Tianxi chose to go to MIT because she thought that only at MIT could she find her opponent. Although it sounds arrogant, Cai Tianxi has such capital.
Cai Tianxi, 18 years old, went to MIT to study for a doctorate. The professor at MIT heard Cai Tianxi's words and tried to dissuade her, but she was not stumped. Cai Tianxi received his Ph.D. from MIT in just one year. Cai Tianxi doesn't want to stop studying. 19 years old, she entered Harvard to study for a doctorate in statistics.
Cai Tianxi won a full scholarship from Harvard University at the age of 20, and was awarded the robert lee Prize for his outstanding contribution in statistics. At the age of 22, he was directly approved by his tutor for a doctoral degree, and won the "semi-parametric randomization" award of the International Biostatistics Association. Cai Tianxi has a feeling that "all other mountains are dwarfed in the sky". And it took only 22 years to reach a height that others can't reach in their lifetime.
In 2000, Cai Tianxi was a researcher and professor at the Institute of Biology of the University of Washington. Because of Cai Tianxi's outstanding contribution to biology, 26-year-old Cai Tianxi was appointed as an associate professor of biostatistics department by Harvard University after working in Washington for three years. When Cai Tianxi was a professor, he also determined his own research direction-biomedical statistics.
Cai Tianxi, 30, has become a tenured professor and doctoral supervisor at Harvard University. The doctoral student she brought is ten years older than her. Cai Tianxi's life can be described as a pleasant journey. She achieved enviable success at the age of 39. Although Cai Tianxi is really smart, what seems simple is her life of studying hard with the lights on every day. Without her tireless study, Cai Tianxi could not have achieved such excellent results.
Although Cai Tianxi teaches overseas, while teaching and educating people, she has also set up a scholarship fund in China to provide financial support for students who are bent on studying but whose families are poor, and to provide opportunities for learning knowledge. Father Cai Xiaoxiao established the "Cai Xiaoxiao Magician Education Law" to teach the society his own experience in educating children.
Parents are the first teachers of the children.
Although Cai Tianxi's achievements are impressive, they are just ordinary in the eyes of his five brothers. Because all his five brothers are doctors, Cai's family is also called "the home of doctors". Liuzi's achievement can not be separated from his father's cultivation, and his father Cai is also known as the "genius magician".
In Cai Tianxi's memory, his father has been practicing the educational concept of setting an example with his own actions. Educate your six children on the little things in life and provide all available learning resources. When my father came home from work, he read books and newspapers with his children, shared what happened with them and discussed academic issues.
Cai Xiaoxiao wrote more than 1000 letters to her children. Even with a mobile phone and a computer, he chose to write letters. Cai Xiaoxiao believes that writing letters plays a role in connecting feelings and parent-child communication. After the children have made great achievements, he told them that "people are outside, and the sky is behind" and told them what to do when they encounter setbacks. Don't think they are bound by failure. The secret of Cai Xiaoxiao's success in teaching children at night also includes cultivating children's interest in learning, entertaining and making children willing to learn and fall in love with learning.

At the age of 22, he was hired as an associate professor by Harvard University. At the age of 30, he became a tenured professor and doctoral supervisor at Harvard University. Cai Tianxi's outstanding achievements are inseparable from the education of her father Cai, who made her and her brothers.
