- In this illuminating talk, high school mathematics teacher and CZcams star Eddie Woo shares his passion for mathematics, declaring that "mathematics is a sense, just like sight and touch" and one we can all embrace. Using surprising examples of geometry, he encourages everyone to seek out the patterns around us, for "a whole new way to see the world". A public high school teacher for more than 10 years, Eddie Woo gained international attention when he posted videos of his classroom lessons online, to assist an ill student. His CZcams channel, WooTube, has more than 200,000 subscribers and over 13 million views.
Eddie believe that mathematics can be embraced and even enjoyed by absolutely everybody. He was named Australia's Local Hero and was a Top 10 Finalist in the Global Teacher Prize for his love of teaching mathematics. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx

what do teachers need? passion, charisma, eloquence and substance. This guy has all of that in spades
and better salary!
@@iam2strong that too
@@iam2strong I’m sorry… better salary? What country do you live in? 90% of teachers here in QLD earn more than your high-end, high-degree ultra-study Uni pathway jobs.
@@WildcardASMR well, sorry because not the whole world is like QLD or whatever
@@MahmoudSayed-hg8rb That's why I said 'What country do you live in?' How dense and narrow-minded are you?
This dude single handedly made me want to study math and consider it a passion rather than a chore. Thanks to him in a couple of years I’ll be graduating in CS, something that may seem “average” for most people but for me is my greatest achievements so far.
I sure hope to meet you one day, Eddie!
That’s cool man! I’m thinking of majoring in math in college rn thanks to him. But I’m still hesitant.
@@anantsharma7955 Do it!! Plenty of jobs either way for you
Way to go! That is INCREDIBLE!!!
Congrats brother.
Impressive
Was anyone else admiring the pattern in the background the whole time
I swear i did
No joke, those tessellations were pretty captivating
satisfying
I was so into the pattern after the video, I 3d printed those things and built a tessellation of them on my desk. Still stands today!
me , 😂
This talk wasn’t a talk...it is poetry!!! Clearly seen that he loved English and also math!
Well, he loves pattern for sure
There's something phenomenal about learning a subject from someone who is so very passionate about the subject that they teach.
Beautyful
A lot of talks doesn't aprecciate that approach of "I'm not gonna say that X can be better if Y happens, I'm gonna explain the problems, and show a pratical solution", it's show don't tell.
He explained that people isn't interested in mathematics because it 'feels like' forced chores, but instead of complaining and saying "we need nice teachers like i am, be like me" he showed that we needed passionated instructors to properly love it by being one and doing a small exercize in a cheerful and enjoyable way.
“and you’re asian” i love this guy
this is an important factor!
With an Australian accent to boot! I love it!
you love him because he is asain don’t you
This is pretty funny because I love maths and I am Asian too! I want to be a mathematician some day! 😂😂😂
I want to like, but don't want to be the person to mess up the 777. So 👍🏾.
"There is a mathematical reality woven into the fabric of the universe that you share with winding rivers, towering trees, and raging storms." that is a Shot of Awe if I've ever heard one.
That line was a work of art
@@Wolf-hd1hr Yepe, he prepared a wonderful poetic speech. His speech is very catchy because he brilliantly learned and applied how to deliver a perfect speech, using descriptive words words, smooth transitions, example from a real life and pinch of humour. He is a brilliant math teacher and an astonishing speech artist.
I would’ve gone so far as to show the super clusters and filaments of the universe in contrast to the blood vessels.
The Last Jedi is a mathematician
@@HumbleServantofAllah642 He's taking time to explain, and entice curiosity.
My classes were dedicated to cramming. teacher's chant was to cover the topics only once, and within the allotted time it is afforded. Must move on, allotted time to explain has expired. then, 'NEXT TOPIC".
Keep up students, or you will not sustain.
very little joy exists as a teaching ingredient in schools of the USA.
No wonder that math has fallen here. Current teaching methods leave those students who are mathematically inclined to fail.
this guy is an insane teacher (insane in the fact that whatever he teaches is easily understandable and keeps students engaged).
a model teacher :)
Exactly. I'm in 9th grade of school, but watching his videos, I'm now in 11th grade in just 4 months
Almost finishing
The last line
"Even in the party of 5000 people I am proud to declare that I love maths..."
Just loved it😍😍😍
I failed maths in high school and was held back for a year, so I swore to hate it forever and now here comes this man making me want to dig up my maths manuals and start doing exercises for the fun of it. I adore him.
The best one is Schaum's "Advanced Mathematics for Engineers and Scientists" - it's a 1970s school book with loads of solved examples, that starts simple with counting and goes up to major subjects like vector calculus.
Me too.😩😩
@@lyrimetacurl0 my God.. That's my favourite math book back in college! It looks scary at first coz it's very thick but the notes and example are easy to follow.. I didn't do well in math for my diploma infact flunk it a few semesters and had to repeat but i swear i will get revenge on it one day.. Now im a bachelor's degree holder in mathematics and pursuing my masters in science in the field of modelling
dude, as for me Mathematics is my blood itself
Where can I buy this book?
I went to church and youth group with Eddie Woo. He was the same at 15 and he's the same now. Always been a passionate, lovely, God-fearing guy.
What does god have to do with anything?
@@razalasreficul6902 with him obviously. I'm not religious but "God-fearing" isn't a descriptor that bothers me like it does you for whatever reason.
Snorn Cake
1) The commenter is saying that EDDIE is still all those things now as he was then. He was an amazing kid even in his youth. No need to be triggered. Chill.
2) God-fearing people act honorably, responsibly, and with a purpose because, well, they fear (=honor in reverence) God. It is clearly a compliment for Eddie.
@@wsk5nwytscnkfsu god-fearing people act honourably, responsibly and with a purpose.
Well yeah, just depending on how you think about God changes if other people think you're honourable etc.
If somebody says "my god doesn't like heretics" and kills others for that reason, I wouldn't say that's honourable. That person might be god-fearing tho (And that situation has happened in almost if not all religions).
Get your point tho, I'm just bored picking apart your statement here ^^
@Rickie j While I respect the differences in our thoughts and opinions, in this case, what YOU think of who God is and what it means to "fear God" is irrelevant to the merit of the original comment, nor does it matter to EDDIE himself. HE is a God-fearing man (according to the commenter), whether you want him to or not. The true meaning of "God-fearing" is complicated often misunderstood (as you just described) outside of faith circles but it is perfectly well understood among believers. If you respect Eddie's gift and passion, have the decency to also respect his faith.
Mathematics is the sense you never knew you had - Eddie Woo

08:43 "..with time and the right guidance"
Thanks Eddie.
Of course he's asian
I failed math in high school, and here I am about to finish my bachelor's degree in CS! Math is great when you have a great teacher like this guy right here!

@@dielaughing73 oh yeah
I once heard a similar argument to this.. and it related exactly to the idea that math is an inate sense.
The argument was that most people, especially any athlete that plays ball sports, intuitively knows geometry and calculus, even if they dont know it. And the argument is that when you see a baseball hit off of the bat, your brain immediately starts calculating its initial velocity and throughout the flight of the ball, you are recalculating the same equation over and over again to predict, with a very high degree of accuracy, the place where that ball will land.
And you can do all of these calculations subconsciously, while simultaneously accounting for variables like wind, sun and the fact that your only means of measurement (your eyes) are moving, bouncing as you run, and also taking stock of potential dangers, like other players, the outfield wall, or anything you might trip over.
Now you could apply this to any ball sport, racket sport or racing. Our brain is a phenomenally complex and beautiful computer capabale of astounding things.
Honestly, I think things like that rely on reproduction. Sports players have seen the trajectory of the ball so many times in so many different situations that the brain gets used to it following a certain path.
Yung Dani I've always been good at catching balls, ever since I was a kid, despite not doing repetition training. While people certainly get better as they do things, that's just obvious.
It's about predicting the trajectory and having good kinetic vision. The more you do it, the more you start to notice patterns. The more you see those patterns, the better you understand them.
No skill is different.
@@CottidaeSEA
While it is possible that your genetics gave you the oppertunity to be better at catching balls, it does not even matter that much. I don't know you but you probably believe you've always been better than other people at catching balls because somebody (like your dad) has told you so in your childhood. Or you could not find a lot of skills you were good at so the human likes to praise itself with something.
The Idea of being good at sports in correlation to being good in mathematics/physics to me seems like a weird one. Otherwise all topsporters would be high-functioning physisists as well right ;) well.. the opposite seems to be true.
Yung Dani, I'm not exactly sure what you mean. While it's true that I believe that I've been better than others at catching balls than others, that's because that's simply what was shown through making comparisons with others. I've barely gotten compliments, so that's completely off, and none of which have been in relation to catching things. In fact, my dad didn't even know my catching ability until couple of years ago. As for if there are no other skills I'm good at, there are plenty that I'm good at. In fact, things that require me to make many precise movements at the same time are what I'm the worst at. Most other things I can do fairly well. Of course, it's not that I can't learn something that requires many precise movements at the same time, it's just that it takes a longer time to learn. It's a worse aptitude, not inability.
As for your laughable comparison, the reason why they aren't both has to do with time spent doing something. Not their aptitude. Your aptitude toward something can be extremely high, that is to say a genius. However, if you don't nurture that ability, your genius doesn't matter. So assuming they had spent the same amount of time studying physics, who's to say that they couldn't be top physicists?
As or me, I have a high aptitude toward a lot of things, not on a genius level however, but I've never had the motivation nor will to actually get better at one particular skill. In fact, one of my better skills would be my English, which is my second language.
Oh, and regarding aptitude, I don't believe that I'm somehow special. I know my strengths and weaknesses well, and I don't believe anyone else is different in that sense. The difference is where our aptitudes lie. There are obviously some who will be underperformers and outperformers, but I believe that I'd at best be on the high end of the average part of the spectrum.
Math sounds a bit broad, but the truth is we have dozens of senses beyond the basic 5, such as the sense of distance, weight, heat, balance, color, kinesthetic, chemo, gas, danger, etc.
Most people refer to it as instinct, but they are in fact our hidden senses.
"Mathematics is Not just about Calculating "x"...It's also about Figuring out "Y" (why)...❤️"
"torture, a dry, solitary, joyless exercise I only engaged in because someone else forced me to": he coud have been describing maths as I see it.
😂😂
That is what he said
@@sing759 But it's not what he thinks about maths now!
Whereas for me, for over 55 years, maths has been something I don't understand and that triggers a feeling of a kind of cold horror.
For the last 30 years I've tried to understand a little: no pressure, just a kind of curiosity. But that has got me nowhere. That's why I listen to people like Mr (or Dr?) Woo, in the hope that they might be of some help. I've also seen websites and bought books. Friends have tried to help sometimes.
But it's been in vain up to now.
So passionate, such a great communicator!
Essentials Of Math you look like a calculus fan.
Ehh, it isn't my favorite.
He didn't say uhh,, or umm his entire speech! He should teach public speaking I would take that class in a heartbeat!
Integrating functions isn’t my favourite as well
Guess he "differentiated" himself from others didn't he ;)
There are some hero's who don't wear a cape.
go on, I'm listening.
Eddie Woo doesn't wear a cape because he still has his glasses on.
And there are some places where you shouldn't use apostrophes
Cough cough copycat
Yes, some just use correct grammar.
That quote about music being people counting without knowing it is so powerful.
I have a fear of maths. My palms could create pools of sweat whenever I encounter numbers; be it in a classroom, a grocery store, in front of my computer, and just about everywhere. Now I'm in my first week of University taking engineering, and Calculus intimidates me an awful lot, more so that I have little to no background knowledge left on areas that are needed for me to understand it. And as much as I think deeply of other fields I could excel at, I want to believe that I can stop my palms from sweating over the very things I always ran away from. Thank you for this Ted Talk, Mr. Woo!
"I want to believe that i can stop my palms from sweating over the very things I always ran away from."
What a beautiful line.
@@elaine3867 Thank you 🥺
This guy helped me understand combinatorics in a way I could never understand before. Great teacher!
Pineapple29 how ? His lectures are available online or what ?
Harsh Singh it is, search his name, findout how division by zero's not possible
But they are just small lectures right ? No full topic like calculus is covered ?
I love this guy, eddie woo, his youtube videos also

Mathematics is the universe's language.
K
It could have picked something easier, sheesh.
@@ramasama like? But lol
@@zapcrossworld4036 I don't know, like... 'murican.
a language which i will never understand.
9:31 I actually teared up hearing this. I’ve always believed to be incapable of learning maths, I’ve always called myself a “none mathematic person”. I shall no longer limit myself with that belief.
I literally took mathematics as my optional subject in my High school even after being terrible at it, just to give it a try after watching this video! And in my term 1 result i scored 39/40 and wish to even study it further. You have changed so much of my life Eddie woo, it's crazy.
Wow, that's amazing! Way to go! Whatever you choose to do in life, your analytical skills will help a ton. Students like you are why Mr. Woo loves to teach!
Well in my case i did terrible and took humanities but after seeing this video I now started studying maths independently just for fun and now im confident to take admission in a data science course. Our mind is absolutely limitless.
Now I realise how he can so perfectly explain the most complex math phenomenons so easily. He is a great storyteller. He is great at making up a story and explaining it in a "fun" sort of way. I'm glad that he turned to maths. No doubt he would've been a great writer/English teacher. But in maths he has literally become a legend!
Good observation I agree well said
Second blade.
For me, Math is like a series revelations of why the nature's pattern(or at least the orderly chaos) is like this. I love the subject
*I searched for How to love Mathematics and this came up*
well
step1. forget everything school teaches you, cuz that's just memorization.
step2. watch content and learn from people like Eddie who are actually passionate about mathematics. and also stay curious!
Loool I search up how to love chemistry😂
@@livethefuture2492 you guys memorize MATHS?! we don’t do that here wtf is wrong with your system
Good search 😃
I searched how to be smart in math
I hate it when people see maths as a school subject, and when they fail, they hate it. It's an awesome tool for almost every kind of purpose, mostly that you don't know you would use.
I also love MATHEMATICS ❤ hehehe
I don't mind it. I prefer words, though.
Hey how do you excel in Maths
Me too
I watched his videos that made me understand " e" and logs. Changed my perspective about maths.
pranav kotwal E
I just watched that last night!
*E*
How can I see his lectures ?
now go through various equivalent rigorous definitions of e and logarithm. lol
”Mathematics is our sense for patterns, relationships and logical connections.” Love that quote, gonna remember that one! Amazing ted talk!
I've never heard someone talk so beautifully about mathematics, let alone compare it to art. Loved it.
This man has saved me from Failing my Boards Mathematics Exam. HUGE RESPECT FOR HIM FROM INDIA.
Imagine if Sal Khan and Eddie Woo opened their own school
that would literally save the entire planet
It'd place undue importance on mathematics.
Sal Kahn is boring. It's healthier to be in school around other people than looking at a computer screen. But schools need to be more flexible. Maybe they're not for everyone.
@@cockeyedoptimista Have you ever even saw any videos on khan academy? I disagree with ya.
@@beanyys1158 Yes, I have "saw" a lot of them. I was watching them a lot for awhile about 7 years ago. But the endless nature of it all bothered me; it seemed addictive in an unhealthy way. If it was your only access to information, it would be alright, though. You're free to like it! This Woo guy seems more alive, though.
I started to love Math after i got out of School.
For some reason, my Math teachers were just horrible, they made me hate Math to the core.
But, on CZcams, i would see random videos about Math, Science, Physics, and then, i began to wonder how does this work, how does that work, why does it work, etc.., and those questions all lead to Mathematics.
It turns out, without Math, we would be living in the stone age.
And then, i began to love Math, i saw what some of the Equations mean, where they come from, i really love the Math channel 3Blue1Brown btw.
I am now back to learning Math, on my own, and its so much fun when you understand why something is the way it is.
Same, man. I'm currently dropped out of college, looking for a job, while learning Math on my own in my free time. I found wonders from this subject which I didn't back in high school, where I even hated the way they teach it: all the same rigorous and boring memorizing.
That's basically how I wound up here :)
Try Zach Star. He makes similar content but expands beyond the math by showing how the math shows up in other fields.
That's why you are here
Same here. It also amuses me that you are subbed to the channels I find very intriguing. Especially Arvin Ash , professor Dave and PBS eons
As a 15 year old these type of things are beginning to make my perspective of seeing things clear, I don't why people aren't showing these things to us , If I ask 'why' For some question then most of the people say thats just how it is , it's great that internet is providing the answers that noone does but unfortunately people are busy watching series instead of these.
Ys, I stopped asking ppl y when I was 3 and started trying to solve myself coz they kept on saying that and it made everything boring 😩
I had to learn Math by myself in Bolivia. Because Primary, High School and University : ZERO. Now I am a very good mathematician.
I Can't Believe That I'm Watching This For Entertainment !
Same
Yah
IKR 😂😂
I'm here for enlightenment!
*"Mathematics is the sense you never knew you had"* If and only if we had teachers like Eddie Woo
👍
sure
Math is the language that connects us with our Universal Creator. Every number, formula, theorem, etc. is the vocabulary and grammar point of such language.
Watching his videos, it's so easy to forget Eddie Woo didn't start out in maths.
He approaches his classroom lectures with such enthusiasm, and brings that out in his students, that you'd think he'd been born for the job.
But as he points out here, and as I've long maintained, maths isn't something that only some people can do. It's something that a lot of people have been scared away from, but the appreciation of the subject, the understanding of mathematical ideas beyond mere rote number crunching, is something anyone can learn.
This pleasant looking teacher has vast, at least a million followers in India. He teaches maths as a fun, absorbing & enjoyable. His body language is appealing. He has made many Indians to love mathematics.. He is icon of intelligence and modesty. I have watched all his youtube clips.. Science & mathematics have no territorial boundaries. . God Bless him..always..
That's why i am proud to declare, l love MATHEMATICS 😍😍😍...

He is the teacher we all need. The teacher that truly love and good at teaching.
I love this guys, especially his attitude and positive vibe.
I’ve learned to appreciate patterns and math in language after learning Linguistics
This talk gave me the chills. He is an absolutely amazing, inspirational teacher.
I don’t think I’ve ever been so gripped by anyone in a lecture ever, he’s such an amazing communicator and is so passionate about his subject
Why aren't we taught mathematics like that in schools😭
I wish this guy was my maths teacher 😄

This guy, no special interest on math, yet he becomes the expert on it! Thats what we call hardwork, and he wants to do it for others bcs it said that Australia lacking maths teacher, thats his biggest motivation I think, and to think about other's needs and he fight for it, that's admirable. This guy deserves a hug for his concerns about others :)
I hope I can be a cool math teacher too hehe
I had to leave school early, to support my family. Now I am older, and have time, instead of playing computer games, I should go back, way back, and study mathematics. Your enthusiasm, is infectious :)
I want him as my maths teacher

I’m a Chinese immigrant in Sweden. I start to work as a substitute teacher from last term, teaching textile, home economics etc.
I feel so inspired from you, that your passion for teaching and how you love a subject like math.
Thank you for sharing your experience. I will watching your videos even I’m not teaching math.
Take care😊
Sharing this passion, it's nice to hear people understanding and explaining just how beautiful math can be. Had I seen this in person it would've definitely recieved a standing ovation from me :)
This guy is brilliant. I love his enthusiasm for math, for his students, and for life.
Haha, he goes straight to fractal geometry...MY MAN!
I find this one of the most beautiful Ted talks to have ever been made about mathematics
What a captivating talk... never ever thought of maths the way Mr Woo percieved it!!! Right now I am feeling a deep sadness and regret knowing I missed my chances in life due to my bad mathematic teachers. The world needs more teachers like Mr Woo.
First time I came across Eddie was him explaining survivorship bias and it was such a great way he engaged with his class. Been following his videos ever since
*Eddie Woo You changed my perception towards mathematics first I liked mathematics now I love it*

A beautiful talk that has a wonderful " pattern " . Thank You Eddie Woo !
He has a sense of humor!
I wish he was my math teacher...
He's a legend!
people don't like math because they don't know the usefulness of it,
but if they could see that its really useful in some cases (limited by ones imagination),
it will change their mind
That being said, the only way ever that people are forced to use math, ia to have a job that uses math. E.g. Engineers, physicists, scientists, game developers, theorists, statisticians etc.
I wish I realised how good, useful and fun math is earlier.
In my country, studying science or math is not an option if you didn't study them in HS.
Paulo Castro anyone who can do even a little maths can’t help themselves to love mathematics. Maths is beautiful it isnt a subject for ones who understand it but their passion.
US schools fail to provide for showing us (and spending CLASSROOM time) on usefulness.
They loose student's souls on a daily basis.
people dont like mathematics because of the school system.
if you forced someone to do anything they would hate it.
Amazing communicator. Amazing mathematician. Amazing teacher. Simply inspirational
Incredible talk, congratulations for being such a good motivational speaker and great storyteller, Eddie!
I hate maths but there is something on the back of my head telling me that Maths is for me..
Saad Patel maths is probably for everyone
This is coming from someone who is good at maths at high school level: math on its own is pretty worthless lol
@@mranonymous2729 It's the Applied Mathematics that counts. Eddie said so himself. He was in University when he truly realised the beauty of mathematics.
For example, highschool physics seems worthless on its own. Like nobody is gonna look at a car's speedometer every 2 seconds and calculate the acceleration. But when you start making designs for real-life objects like buildings and bridges in University, you're bound to realise how beautiful the subject is. It's a payoff for years of effort and clinging to it which finally leads you to look at the world differently
Keep saying it till you believe it 😂😂😂
@@mranonymous2729 life is meaningless too, You can contribute to the world in two ways, One is in helping in the understanding of the universe , the other by making our civilisation better and making life beautiful and ever-lasting, Both are equally important and are closely related but people now days just run after money (which itself isn't that bad ) but you have to look beyond your selfish and just give a little bit more to humanity
His communication skills are phenomenal! I can see why so many consider him a great teacher.
“You see, son ? Math is fun. Math is inspiring.
Now finish your Math homework.”
I've followed and watched his classroom math vids for many years now, and I'm happy for Eddie Woo. The audience loved him. CZcamsrs loved his speech. I loved it, too. It was just superb and inspiring and very articulate and eloquent in ways with all the references to math being a sense, comparative geometry, and his overall enthusiasm is genuine.
I haven't heard of Eddie Woo before watching the Australian Story, but I am now a fan!
eddie current hehe
You should watch his maths tutorial. So good.m
Eddie is such a legend. I am 40 year old and is still a student of his as I keep watching his lectures online. I even feel now I have just begun learning Math because of his wonderful approach. He helped me realized how Mathematics is actually a part of everything on Earth. Thanks Eddie! And please continue to inspire people like me.
Eddie had made me like math for a long time now, after seeing him on a tv series, but now I'll never give up...good job Eddie🥰
Great speaker and teacher.
Hope his students appreciate him.

He's really a great teacher! He made me love maths!
He's so thought provoking and a natural public speaker without knowing it. Never change Eddie, my nieces and nephews learn from you, but I do too!
What a fine blend of words creating real imagery! A masterpiece talk ever on maths!
this is so good, I've been watching his videos for a couple of months now and it always fills me with joy and enthusiasm
