To save your trouble, let me answer a couple of your questions:

美國的老師與家長不像台灣的老師與家長要求小孩達到很精熟的地步嗎?

Being in US for N years, here is my take:

Taiwan's education emphasizes on training and skill (熟練), verse thinking to American.  Let me give you an example:

In US, one of the common assignment is writing reports.  It applies to almost all kind of subjects.  Take history as an example, students in history class have to write quite a few reports.  Nevertheless, in Taiwan, history class is "MEMORIZATION".  Similarly, like English, it is still composition after composition for students, but in Taiwan, it is still endless memorization.  Yes, memorization does promote a certain level of knowledge.  However, such a knowledge is DEAD.  I mean it cannot be used in any other way, but for taking the test.  The most obvious one is English.  Every college student in Taiwan has learned English for at least 6 years (maybe more now).  However, how many of them is English proficiency in speaking and listening.  

My point is, when you are trained to think, maybe, your accomplishment is NOT as obvious at the beginning, but once you getting into graduate school, such a training becomes very useful and can promote your study greatly.  We seldom heard that American with advanced degree plagiarize other's publications.  Yet, in Taiwan or China, plagiarization is very common, why?    

各種數學(函數, 代數, 幾何等等等), 對您在日後生活上的幫助是什麼?
Math to lots of people is a scary subject, simply because its emphasis on logic.  Nevertheless, such a logic training may not be that obviously useful in our daily life.  However, when there is a situation need to be resolved, then this logic can be useful.  For example, when you want to buy a computer, how do you determine which brand to buy, by the price, function, equipped components, speed ... To make such a decision is no longer just simple math can do, but a logical thinking.  

Due to the limitation of words allowed in YK+, I can only briefly give you some ideas!
