    I'm an engineer and i can now see how little I've learnt all through school and college, even thought it always felt a lot. The way we are taught maths, just remembering the formulas not why and what they are, it makes it feel like so much more than it actually is. The feeling of truly understanding a mathematical concept and knowing how and where it is applied is priceless.

      So true! In my school, we were taught some formulas here and there, but only to work out the problems on the worksheets. Then, we moved on the next unit in order to pass the exams. Most of the grades in the class were validated with homework (60%) and it was only a completion grade. 😂 So my math skills really never developed, despite me being able to advance to the next grade. I want to just start the journey all over again because I do believe this is a life skill that improves the way you generally think or rationalize. This video really comes in handy for that.

When you start to understand some of the math behind something like orbital transits or logic of how computers operate, it really does become a lot more fascinating.

    The thing is: math is a language. You should be teached about how to be fluent in it, being able to improvise and to make equations like you write an idea or essay with words. In school/university they only teach you empirically like, put this number here this other here and calculate.

So I started over again in my mid 40s, now that I have time and the means to do it. I think the advantage this time for me is the fact that I can really dig into areas I enjoy. And with some life experience behind me I think it helps me compared to when I was young learning this stuff with no frame of reference.

Interesting thing that happens though; the great trainers tend to learn more about the subject as they teach it and they get better at it themselves.

    There are 3 ways of doing math. Discrete Math is used for exact answers. Calculus and Rounding for approximate answers. Probability for guess numbers. But really calculus can get exact answers because the size of universe are as minuscule

    I've always struggled with Mathematics in school from Elementary all the way to College. This is the subject which I devoted most of my time to, staying up late and then waking up in the early hours of the morning in order to finish my homework. I feel that this is the one subject in school where it is absolutely essential to have a patient and devoted teacher who will guide you through it instead of only focusing on the students who excel at it.

      All it takes is for a teacher to crush a student's self esteem once or twice and they'll never bother trying again. School made failure a big deal, if I got a bad grade I was mocked by teachers and other students, I had to fear how my family would react and I had to fear my scores not being high enough when finishing the year. It grinds you down and makes you hate trying anymore because you associate learning with inevitable failure and stress.
      Failure is a part of learning, it's the act of putting your plans into practice and seeing with your own eyes where and how your method doesn't work which naturally makes you come up with better conclusions. School destroys that, a lot of people grow up thinking that they should never try anything ever because if they're not good at the start, they'll never be good ever.

    I despised learning math in school. The stressful environment, combined with the pressure of academic achievement and competition, always left a negative connotation in my mind-as if math was a challenge and a struggle. Interestingly, outside of the school season, I found that delving into mathematics became engaging-essentially, any time math was not associated with school.
    I enjoy self-guided learning and want to improve my mathematical skills on my own terms, so this guide was perfect.

I stopped with calculus in hs. I really enjoyed it and was able to tutor many of my classmates. However now I’m seeing now abysmal my California public school education was, and math especially. Through youtube I’m seeing so much explanation and enthusiasm, whereas my education was “memorize this, it just ‘is’, and do a hundred repetitions of solving the equation by tomorrow”. I’m not sure there was actual teaching going on at any point!

Try proposing you're awesome idea to some traditional liberal arts purists ,whom unfortunately run the national gamut, as they get on their intellectual high horse over "well rounded" knowledge because saying the word or suggesting "specialization" or "vocational" in affiliation with a math curriculum would have them think you're an idiot.

      Its mostly because how they are taught. Luckily got a chemistry teacher who was very much fascinated with the subject itself, he taught us very well, he was a researcher, although it was no requirement for a teacher to be one, I think that's one of the reason he was really good at explaining things about the subject. He would go into the details (that he isn't required to) to explain the intricate details just so that to that it starts making sense.
      I liked his teaching because he did not make it plain and boring, and just blabbered theory but he used to provide context, and connect all the things with the real world.
      So I think it depends lot on the teacher's qualification, personal interest in the subject, charisma, to be able to engage students in a subject.
      And is rightly said by Dr. Walter Lewin- "those teachers who make physics boring are criminals", and I think It applies to all the subjects there are to teach in this world. Either you teach it with great interest and develop students' interest in the subject or you don't teach it at all, because that only creates burden, and wrong opinions are formed about the subject even the subject doesn't deserve it the teacher does.

    Honestly this was really helpful. I used to be the “smart kid” that kinda burned out in middle and high school. I kinda learned how to bullshit my way through math because I didn’t think I’d major in stem. Then I fell in love with geology and realized how screwed I was needing to not only know math but get into engineering physics classes. I am just barely getting through trig realizing I don’t think I know much of math at all and don’t know where to start because I have a very bad foundation. So thank you! I’ll definitely try to do some self teaching so I can go into this feeling confident!

      Yeah, I was so good at every subject in elementary school, I didn't have to do a single piece of homework or study and could ace every test in every subject. Then it got hard and I had no idea to how learn.

      But the funny thing is ... you only need a few years to finish all of these! Because you're no longer stuck on a 4hours of math per week (if that) aka school schedule! You can do 4 hours everyday and you'll be done with all of this and then some in maybe a few years, maybe less ^^

    I devloped severe anxiety because of school and especially math
    It was so difficult for me to comprehend It all
    I wasn't able to understand concepts and math is like building blocks if you don't have a base you've got absolutely nothing but I love math I truly do I find it extremely beautiful
    I want to learn and rid of the pain that has stuck with me from memories of not being able to answer in class and being humiliated

    I'm impressed with your level of highly specialized knowledge. As a middle and high school math teacher, it amazes me just how little of the surface we in fact cover of mathematics. Glad there are people like you to teach people beyond their secondary education.

    I've always hated math and did badly in school like most people, but ever since I started to learn programming, I implicitly began liking the logic and (without knowing) made connections to math. Fast forward a couple of years and I had to take math in college to obtain a diploma for my course, and I actually liked it, despite how hard it was for me (we're talking about going from 8th grade math to differential calculus, set theory and some algebra in a semester...).
    Now I've been out of it for a while and working as a software engineer, but due to my interests in math I decided to pick it back up, this time starting with the first book on Discrete Math, and I can't help but notice patterns to programming here, like "that works like a for loop", or "that's polymorphism!".
    Self studying this stuff and not being forced to learn it just to pass exams feels really good, hopefully I'll be able to study enough to go to uni either next year or in 2 years for Computer Science and Engineering, which is an area I'm really passionate about (kinda late at 28 years old, but hey... what can you do!).
    Thanks Wizard, I feel like this is what I was missing as a software engineer and can't help but want to fill in the gaps, now it's only up to me to make it happen!
