His advice of having a growth mindset is absolutely great! Before I started my journey to learning advanced math, I researched a growth mindset, read Carol Dweck’s book on growth mindset, and found quotes to help me out when I get stuck. I also identified helpful math resources to help explain mathematical concepts when I don’t understand something. There are so many resources available for various math topics. For those struggling in math, don’t give up!
Very enlightening interview with Professor Fernandez. His "growth mindset" philosophy can be applied to all aspects of life. Thank you for sharing this excellent and inspiring video.
This is what I asked for - more interviews with math's authors especially while there is an opportunity- I listened to every second of this video - I will save one of his books for a christmas gift idea for me :)
Simlified Calculus is a perfect introduction to calculus. I think it would be great even for 6th-8th grades at school. Short and clear, only 160 pages, another hundred pages are appendices. Even exercises are here. Thanks for posting it. Special thanks for interview, it was very interesting!
Proud to have given the 150th 👍! ❤ This guest of yours if fully consistent, by the richness of what he brings about, with the mood and contents of your channel, which has opened for me new unsuspected views, making me think that, as maths is, the future of our planet will be one of the Spirit, or it will never be. Let's go for it ! ✌ Thank you, Math Sorcerer !
Hey math sorcerer this interview is great! You should totally keep doing stuff like this! Have you ever considered a podcast? Maybe similar to these interviews but with your additional comments as well. I’d love to hear your input on the guests remarks. I know you have to consider video length though. Thanks for the high quality, well thought out content.
Great advice, especially on proofs! I added his book on calculus simplified to my wish list. Hopefully it will be on sale tomorrow. 👍 Update: If you are in an undergrad calculus class, buy Calculus Simplified. Great book!
This video is about 40 years too late for me, but still motivational. Also a bit late for a younger generation that for some reason never engages with Maths, which is frustrating, and robs young people of many opportunities. Why do some kids never open up to the subject and give up too easily?
Yes, I had difficulty with that too. There is something deeply flawed in the premises and presupposions that surround that. And I’m curious what he had to do to make it more “inclusive.”
Oscar appears to be a superb, inspiring teacher based on my impression of how he presented himself in this video. That said, however, the books discussed in this video are, in my opinion, written purely for recreational reading perhaps with an eye toward sparking an interest in mathematics in children, or for adults with a latent curiosity about the subject, and is a respectable enterprise unto itself. However, you will NOT learn any mathematics from these books nor any book like it. These are solely written as popular account of the subject and, despite best intentions of the author, these types of books do not teach. If you want to learn mathematics, find a good mathematics textbook. In addition to actually TEACHING you the mathematics, most good textbooks provide excellent, and sufficient, motivation for the use of mathematics in the introduction and applications of concepts are generally found in abundance throughout the chapter exercises.
@@danielmrosser Im finished and done with Muti Variable Calculus and Ordinary Differential Equations, moving on to the next level after Multi Variable Calculus and ODE, what the next level? :)
@@huiyinghong3073 Fourier analysis and partial differential equations would be the logical next step. You may also consider taking a course in complex variables.
@@danielmrosser Im done with Undergrad Complex analysis, PDE and Fourier analysis as well. Complex analysis is the pinnacle of Math courses for my school. Whats the next step?
Not even 5 minutes into this video and Prof. Social Justice has given me a run down of why he's a superior human being for pandering to the feelings of overgrown children AS IF IT'S ACTUALLY THE TOPIC AT HAND. WOW. Tell me how you work at Wellesley without saying it lol. Only academics can be this naive and immature to have such viewpoints - viewpoints that are so worn-out and cliche at this point that it's cringy at best. It's as if he sat down for this interview with the intent to let everyone know that he'll follow any mass psychosis and never have an original thought. AND ALL OF THAT IN A MATH VIDEO. WHHHHYYYYYYYY
He has the exact same name and last name as my favorite math professor of all time.
Cool😊
Coincedence? I think not!

Agreed. I had been hearing that from a few sources.
A couple more years of CZcams channel growth and I look forward to your Terence Tao interview:)
What about Multi-Variable Calculus?
This is great. A Math Sorcerer podcast would be amazing where it's interviews like this but with more free-flowing conversation.

I respect your hard work sir
Your previous videos questions helped me a lot

An hour long video! This is the greatest background video to my poetry analysis essay writing
Just ordered this book and then youtube shows me this. Makes me really excited to get it! Thanks for this

Great vid as always
THANKS OSCAR
!Excellent!. Both.. speak Spanish. As you perform a Spanish new Chanel. Please make interview in Spanish. I glad to watch here.
Everyday Calculus just arrived in today's mail!
Great advice, especially on proofs! I added his book on calculus simplified to my wish list. Hopefully it will be on sale tomorrow. 👍
Update: If you are in an undergrad calculus class, buy Calculus Simplified. Great book!
Very good and insightful
The yet part was really good
What an awesome video. I definitely need to get this book.
Amazing. Oscar has a halo around his head. How could one not buy his books?

Thank you
Sir please make a video on all best books of differential equations taking together all books.
Calculus of happiness? No
Calculus is happiness itself

Interesting guest props for you! Men with minds are so Attractive I'm Mesmerized... ∆
I can do many calculus by mind.
What about Multi-Variable Calculus?
❤
I WAS CALLED A MATHEMAGICIAN.
This guy's politics pretty much sunk an otherwise pleasant video
Complex math, complex Relationships.🤣
The first three minutes on the bigotry of inclusivity is difficult. Thanks otherwise for these interviews they really are interesting.
Yes, I had difficulty with that too. There is something deeply flawed in the premises and presupposions that surround that.
And I’m curious what he had to do to make it more “inclusive.”

@@huiyinghong3073 so many books to recommend for studying multi variable calculus. I’d recommend Calculus text written by Howard Anton.
