    This is like the concepts in Khan Academy set loose into the teaching wilds. Sound ideas.
    Looking forward to seeing more of this. 👍

      That's exactly right - Khan Academy videos are great, but ultimately just videos. I think what teachers need is a coherent way to use such videos (Khan's or ideally their own), in a way that makes teaching more of a human experience. That's what Modern Classrooms educators around the world are trying to do!

    Most teachers in American public schools are awful at teaching math and make the process more painful then it needs to be.

    I'm a big fan of your videos on UA-cam and I was wondering if I could have your permission to translate one of your videos into Chinese and share it on platforms like Chinese TikTok. I really enjoyed the content and I think it would be a hit in China. Of course, I'll make sure to credit you and include a link to your UA-cam channel in the post. Let me know if you're cool with it and if you have any specific preferences for the translation. Thanks a lot for considering this request - looking forward to potentially working together on this.

      Oh, search up TED Translators. I'm one of them, and I translate videos there. I recommend this to you, as I can see that you are passionate :)

    I never enjoyed maths. Up to the age of 10 in primary school I was able to do the simple arithmetic and calculation we had to do, but it nerevr interested me.
    Then in secondary school I started to flounder. I was lost and have been ever since.
    I am abysmally bad at maths. And Dr Barnett is just like many other irritating people who say they can help, who say they have methods.
    Dozens of teachers have said this sort of thing before, and yet people are still bad at maths and prone to maths anxiety. So why does none of them try to explain first what it is about maths that people hate the subject so much. Well? What is it?

    They don't like English either! Mathematics (maths). 😂😂😂

    Now, in 2024, actor Terrence Howard is shining a light on how the basic principles we were taught about the numbers zero and one are false, because they defy the laws of physics. 🤔😒

      What he's shining is a turd, not a light

      Terrence Howard has mental issues so whatever he says should be disregarded.

      Wow. That actor gets the most basic arithmetic wrong, and you admire him for that. I think the title of the TED video may have a point.
