I'm studying GCSE maths again as an adult and I wish I'd had a teacher like you when I was younger. You are extremely good at what you do and it is clear that you enjoy it.

I was always beaten by my MATHS teachers, barely used to pass the math exams and many times I failed to top the class because of my pass marks in Maths (while getting over 90-95 in every other subjects) which used to be around 40-50/100. Now when am listening to u, I feel like this is just simple stuff, but it all lies with the person who is explaining. Am trying to let go of the Math phobia that is accumulated within me. I have chosen Humanities in class 11 & 12 and now I've completed my BA, which I've taken because there is no maths and topped in all of them. Now for every competitive exam or to do my PhD or to become a professional Urban planner, you need MATH, and thus I realised in life Math can not be avoided. Maths is haunting me but I feel little couyrgaeous to face those challenges only after am watching your videos and your lucid explanation. No exaggeration but I'd have gotten gold medals had I had a personal Math teacher like you. Thank you :) Ma'am

I struggle with math so for me to understand what you are saying is so amazing, you are a lifesaver. Thank you

Whoah! I was struggling with this concept in class yet you explained it so well and i think i got the hang of it! Maybe my eight grade portions aren't so bad after all now that i've found this video.

Wow! I learnt alot, you make learning easy. I abandoned this subject thinking it was impossible for me. Now i see some that teach are not called for that. Thank you Ma'am

[elizabethwaitherakariuki]

Excellent I thought math was difficult but you have made it easy for me

[lifepersonal]

Thank you, now clearer for me. I struggled with math before.

[AshleighSung]

I'm in year 9 and have been studying algebraic fractions lately but found subtracting the most challenging of all. However, after watching your video I am finally able to understand how to work the equations out. Your step-by-step explaining made it much clearer and easier for me to learn - thank you so much!!

[realitybtsworld]
