lol if they're failing algebra in college they obviously didn't learn it in high school
-
-
I failed algebra three times in HS, dropped out, went to college for creative writing
-
required to take precalc or "math for liberal arts" and the thought of the latter offended my sensibilities
-
so I studied for a week and tested into the former. ended up switching to math major later and did fine
-
in retrospect the only things holding me back were the belief I was somehow incapable and the fact most math...
-
...teachers are awful at teaching. I tutored calc for awhile and found most of the people memorized...
-
...formulas and had no idea what they were actually doing with them, and just explaining in intuitive terms...
-
...what a limit or a derivative etc actually is and means was enough for them to "get" it
