I hated math as a kid.


Then I went to college and studied philosophy of mathematics. Now it's one of my favorite things in the world.

I got the reason why we don't learn to apply math as much: because it takes a longer time just to learn the procedures and rules because the very large number of details it involves. Then after that, when you can apply it, it becomes a language. Love the video. I suck at math, but loved it. This is my second year studying and I am only at trig!!! However, I can't wait to learn calculus 1, 2, 3 etc. I really enjoy it because to me it is deep and not commercial. I get that same feeling I get listening to Bach. I think different people study it for different things, but I want to start off as a tutor and then get an education to be a teacher.

“Math isn’t a process, but rather a toolbox.” This really stuck out because it takes the stigma away from math itself which can sometimes be overwhelming.

I know how to do every single subject except for math. I always just feel dumb and have a mental breakdown.

[zerefsunlimitedshipworks]

That's how I stopped caring about the difficulty of mathematics, as it ceased to exist in my perspective.

I think the problems goes even deeper, the idea for the importance of the essence of math had faded for generations already and i dont even think fixing it will be that easy either, like even how people teaches it these days are pretty bland which inately is the cause of the degradation or most likely because they were not taught properly as well either,

I know most people kinda realizes math might be our key to achieve the next level of intelliegence but at the same time it also kind of make us realize that it might take us a real while to even get to the starting point judging how the current situation is getting worse by the day, but i guess ill stop rambling for now- we can only hope for the better.

I think propositional logic is key. I like your thoughts though. I think students should learn introductory real analysis in junior high or high school and be introduced to the ideas of inverse operations in the abstract. I think the abstraction should come first and then narrow it down.

This is really a very fun video!!! I really enjoyed it. Also good information.

Such a good video! You taught me something new today, thank you!

The truth about maths is that only basic and financial maths is important but everything else is useless because you will forget it after you graduate let’s be honest

[cvey]

Nah my teacher send me this. If you see this I still ain’t paying attention in ur class

[xuchilbara]

i mean: having all the abilities of a mathematics phd would be great. but sitting down and actually finding the time to learn it is hard. and i am not talking about being the average teenager in an average household. try re-learn it while working 80h a week constantly, and hitting the gym 6h a week (physical health and maintenance becomes EXTREMELY deceisive to your job performance once you reach your 30's) while having about 5h of sleep EVERY day... i may got "time" on the week end but guess what: thats when i do the houselhold chores to maintain the nest and a human being needs to recharge, before entering the next battlefield.... so what i am saying is i cant wait for brain-pill to come out that just grants me all the abilities :, (

I've always had problems with problem solving skills and awareness. This could be really useful

[aliviayorke]

Math is COOL! Thanks for the great details about why!

[anonymousplayer]

I'm someone who is just average at math but found math quite fun

[sebastianarteaga]

mathematics its about patterns: see Henri poincare, science and science

and Prelude to Mathematics, W.W sawyer

mathematics its about logic: see Euclids element

see henri poincare the value of science to see the difference between logic and intuition.
