我儿子怎样成为国际象棋大师

How My Son Became a Chess Master

何数棋老師 Frank Ho

作者有加拿大数学资格证书,原数学棋艺创办人。家长见证、数学研究报告、课

程作业样本等,请查询:www.mathandchess.com。

我的儿子 Andrew Ho 12岁就成了加拿大青少年象棋冠军、国际象棋协会颁布的

大师和加拿大象棋大师,打破了加拿大棋界的纪录。十几年后,仍不断有人向我

打听,到底怎样培养儿子为国际象棋大师.我们父子走过的是一条与众不同的路。

我把它写下来供大家参考。

Andrew五嵗时对国际象棋六产生了兴趣,当时我对国际象棋还一无所知。我想,

如果能和他一起学习国际象棋,将是非常有趣的事。于是我去温哥华图书馆借了

些有关国际象棋的书,开始用这些参考书教他怎样下象棋。当 Andrew学会了象棋

的走法,我们就开始一起玩象棋。Andrew最初学的是残局。初期,在教他之前,

我不得不自己先学会各种各样的残局战略,但很快我就发现自己学的进度赶不上

他的吸收速度。于是不得不采取另一种方式,就是我念书他下棋,让他根据我读

的书本去下棋,通常我读完自己并不甚了解,他却理解了书本的含义。

Andrew在幼稚园学棋仅仅几个月就羸了一年级的前冠军。这时我意识到需要找比

我更懂棋的棋手来教他。90年代的温哥华还没有少年象棋俱乐部,我不得不带他

去成年人的象棋俱乐部。可是许多成年人不习惯和这么小的孩子玩棋,排斥他。

这促使我以后自己创办了何数棋谜(Ho Math Chess) 。当年象棋俱乐部有一

位退休医生有极大兴趣和 Andrew玩棋,那医生和 Andrew玩棋时,每移动一步棋

子都用很长时间(那时没有用计时器)。大概因為这样,Andrew刚刚过 6嵗便被

训练得下棋时显得十分有耐心。

很快我又发现,由於与其他孩子的棋力巳拉开档次,Andrew巳有棋不逢对手之感,

急需继续提高棋力。卑诗大学(UBC)每周二晚上的棋艺竞赛是一个很好的机会,自

从参加了周二晚上和成年人的对战,Andrew获得很多经验。记得当年 Andrew代表

加拿大参加 10岁国际大赛,他的棋力是 1900左右,但国际上其他对手有些巳达

Page 4: Canada Vancouver Ho Math Chess Program Description in Chinese and English

到 2000的水平。这次国际比赛的经历让 Andrew和我受到极大的震撼,我们对后

来的训练做了重新调整,购置(市面上刚出现)手提电脑、建立开局分析报告、整

个开局的强势出局、战后的分析及检讨这些都是从国际比赛得到的宝贵经验。

国际赛后回加拿大,最困扰我的是找不到一个教练可以教导 Andrew,把他的棋力

提升到新的高度甚至世界水平。我发现,怎样把一个小孩子训练登上国际舞臺,

多数教练都没有经验。对 Andrew来説,从书本中学习可能是最好的选择。

在接触了几个象棋私人家教后,我找不到可以使 Andrew继续进步的教育方式。一

天我突然想到,象棋大师的棋谱都是公开的,為什么我不分析他们的棋谱,让

Andrew学习他们开局的方式呢?事实证明,这种无师自通的方式对 Andrew来说是

可行的。

一连串的父教子的自学,让 Andrew Ho 12 岁时得到了加拿大 12 岁组、少年(14 岁)

组、青年(18岁)组的三冠王,破了加拿大棋界的纪录,并在巴西的分龄世界国际

象棋大赛获得第 5名,Andrew Ho成了 FIDE国际象棋大师。而日夜专研棋的代价

也让我深深体会古时拜师三跪之礼的意义.90年代我是怎样在没有教练的情况下,

把 Andrew训练达到世界水平呢?主要从以下几方面着手:

与几个退休的象棋大师联係。

学习中国如何训练少年棋手,分析一些象棋大师是怎样被训练的。在网上

寻找其他国家怎样训练少年棋手的资料。

添置象棋录影带和如何开局的象棋书籍,订购世界上所有主要的象棋杂誌。

添置电脑象棋软件和个人电脑,全天候的练习棋艺。

让 Andrew 做大量的谜题,脑力及棋力可以同步提升.运也是為什么

何数棋谜(Ho Math Chess)下棋俱乐部有一半的时间在做脑力的训练.

做完以上资料分析后,我的结论是,比赛时,如果棋手在开局获得先手,在心理

上就巳佔了上风。如果在开局理论上成為专家,一个平常水平的棋手就很难打败

一个开局专家棋手。我把钻研开局理论作为 Andrew的重点训练项目。这种无教练

训练方式最大的好处就是可以在任何时间、任何地点进行,所需要的只是一台电

脑和象棋书籍。

训练 Andrew时我遇到了另一难题。我发现当遇到不熟悉的开局时,棋手们花费太

多时閒去寻找答案。90年代初,我利用当时两本最流行的象棋开局书籍研究学习

了所有主要的开局,为 Andrew找出遇到不同的开局时可以运用对应的各种棋路。

我们把他所有的对应开局走法画在图纸上,最后这些图大到可以覆盖住整张办公

桌的表面。

Page 5: Canada Vancouver Ho Math Chess Program Description in Chinese and English

5

Andrew的脑子里有个记忆库,他的对手走什么棋路时他都知道如何回应。他对於

有关“What if”的开局方式準备得很出色。如果对手下的棋路是他喜欢的开局,

那么大多数棋手都没有能力去反击。有一段时间 Andrew在温哥华甚至被称為是

“终结者”(Terminator)。Andrew很快就成了最小的加拿大青少年象棋冠军、国

际象棋协会颁佈的大师和加拿大象棋大师。

我的训练方式也许可以训练一个孩子成為象棋大师,但我也相对地付出了极大的

代价:往往清晨 2点还在研究第二天的战法,日夜不休的研究、无限的时间投入

及极大的担忧、心力及财力的巨大花费。我想过,如果时间能倒转的话,我也许

不会再花费如此多的时间及心思去训练 Andrew。作為替代,我会挪用一些下棋的

时间去指导他的数学知识。因為数学会帮助 Andrew一路通往大学甚至研究所

(Andrew後來得生化硕士並進了医学院)。这也是促使我以后自己创办了何数棋谜

(Ho Math Chess)学习中心,把数学和棋艺联合起来教授的原因,这样,孩子们

就能同时学习数学和国际象棋了。

真实正牌何数棋谜创办的理念及它的历史背景

待家长诚心 对学生尽责 竞争凭创新 打拼才成功

何数棋谜的理念是不但要提高学生数学的能力及分数,并且也让学生觉得学数学是件有乐趣的事.

大部份的学生对多做数学题都没有兴趣, 但对电动游戏则此较有兴趣. 一般的家教或培训学中

心教数学只是為了分数, 所以学生在这种环境下学得效果就是成紜虽然进步了, 仍是有个不灵

巧的头脑. 学数学只是為了升学吗? 上培训中心补数学只是為了改进数学分数吗? 从实用及现

实的观里点来说, 这些看法是有点道理的. 但从小学生的观点来及未来人生竞争力来看, 这些

只為了增加分数而採取的一些教学手段未免太枯燥无聊了. 补数学只是為了改进数学分数的短

期目标最大缺点是没有培养学生思考的能力, 无思唯能力问题在将来升大学或做事都会再显现

出来.数学教育家多年来一直在寻找一个理想的数学教学方法那就是如何够让学生觉得学数学也

是件有趣的事. 何数棋谜将数学与小学生喜欢的游戏结合,是一个好的,学生喜欢学数学的培训

中心. 何数棋谜不但要提高学生数学的能力, 并且要让学生觉得学数学也是件有乐趣的事.

何数棋谜(何数学棋艺)教学理念及方法為有 BC数学教师证书的何老师(Frank Ho)於 1995 年首创

发明.引起何数棋谜创办的动机及歷史真是非常独特. 何老师的儿子(Andrew Ho)於 5岁多时对

国际象棋发生兴趣, 但何老师当时不会下棋,於是何老师展开了一连串的父教子的自学活动.

Andrew Ho 於 12岁时得了加拿大 12岁组,少年 (14岁)组,青年(18岁)组的三冠王,破了加拿大

棋界的纪录, 并且於巴西的分龄世界国际象棋大赛时得第 5名. Andrew Ho现為 FIDE 国际象棋

大师. 由於何老师对国际象棋发生兴趣引发了何老师研究国际象棋与数学的关系. 而后何老师

的太太 Amanda 何老师也加入了研发团队,结果是何数棋谜团队研发出世界独一无二有版权 (加

拿大 1069744) 及有商标注册 (TMA771400) 结合数学,国际象棋,谜题,与智能开癸的材料. 划时

代创新教材也震撼了儿童幼教界. 中英文报纸, 电视台等媒介都报导过 (详情见

www.mathandchess.com).所以何数棋谜的创办有其理念及文化背景. 何数棋谜不但提高学生数

学的能力,并且也让学生觉得学数学是件有乐趣的事. 温哥华许多补习班都希望发展成为国际连

锁店但只有何数棋谜真正做成功了. 为什么? 一定有其特殊原因的. 何数棋谜并研发了专教资

优生的教材.

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.
