The Guardian/英国卫报:
Chinese maths textbooks to be translated for UK schools
British students may soon study mathematics with Chinese textbooks after a “historic” deal between HarperCollins and a Shanghai publishing house in which books will be translated for use in UK schools.

It’s not the textbooks. It’s mainly uncompromising parents and the long hours spent cramming every day.

This will not help British children catch up or bridge the gap with Chinese children. The idea that there is something inherently but unqualifiably magical in their teaching methods or textbooks is not sound. Number systems in Mandarin and other Asian languages are logical (eg figure for 15 is 10 + 5, not teen + fif) but English is not. So we have eleven and not ten-one, twelve and not ten-two, thirteen and not ten-three, etc. Why fifteen and not fiveteen? Children have already fallen behind before mastering these illogical oddities. The finest textbooks in the world will not help overcome this hurdle.

THAT"S IT...the reason UK is behind in math is because English grammar & syntax is unhelpful!!
I'm amazed on a daily basis by the nonsense that people spout here.

That is NOT nonsense. Many years ago a Chinese friend of mine explained just that, and it made complete sense to me.
