  • You ARE smart and have the potential to be good at math. Your schooling (as I've seen in most public schools) is making math harder and harder for you because it's not teaching you the right way to think about math fundamentally. Have you asked your math teacher "Why?" and they said "Just because"? While it's difficult to capture everything about getting good at math in one video, this is my biggest advice. I hope this is a helpful start :)

    I'm an engineer turned teacher. Not to knock teachers, but what I find is that "math teachers" are really good at working problems and seem to lack understanding of the utility of math. Their understanding is academic, where as an engineer or mathematician is a practitioner of math. I believe that is the problem. They don't often explain the why or the math, verses the how.

      😢Ephesians‬ ‭6:10‭-‬18‬ ‭Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness; and your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace; above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God: praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints. The bible is no old book. You have to really let Christ open your eyes; to see the world in shambles. Many people say it's a religion to lock up people in chains, and say it's a rule book.. why? Because people hate hearing the truth, it hurts their flesh, it's hurts their pride, it's exposes on what things have they done..people love this world so much, s*x, money, power, women, supercars.. things of this world. Still trying to find something that can fill that emptiness in your heart. You can't find that in this world.. only in Christ, the bible is no chains, it's a chainbreaker. Breaking your sins into pieces... Repent now, and turn back to the true Lord only.. God bless.😢😢😢😢

During my graduating preparation for the oral math exam I realised how important theory was and what role it could play in practical problems when I needed to know 24 different theses in various fields. 10 years later I found out I also needed an engineering diploma so I've started learning my own way using my earlier experience (which is totally similar to the subject of this video) and it's going quite well!

    This is a great video. You have a wonderful presence! Breaking the problem down, and going back to make sure you understand the gaps in your understanding is perfect, however, I disagree strongly with not looking at the answer. Looking at the answer may guide you significantly. The answer is not such a big deal and just getting it over and knowing it may take stress off of you in order for you to continue your investigation.

    • @wamyy5

I actually used to be one of the best students in math till middle school(had the highest grades mostly) but yeah teachers with memorising ruined it and ended up failing maths 3 times in highschool. And Unmotivated since everyone who passed cheated with teachers assissting them as well....
    but this video reeeeeally helped me so thankyou

    I’ve recently decided I want to become an aerospace engineer, but the problem I’ve ran into is that I’m bad at math and don’t even have my GED yet. But the same day that I decided I knew what I wanted to do for a career, I decided I was going to put my nose to the grindstone and actually figure out how to become better at math as a whole. So far I’ve been studying around 2 to 6 hours a day and I decided to start at the very beginning of basic arithmetic, and work my way up to eventually understanding parts of Physics in college. So far in just three days I’m already at a 9th grade level of math starting from 1st grade math. And this is all just to say that your video is SUPER accurate. It’s not about memorizing math, it’s about understanding math. Once I learned again from the ground up it all made more sense. And I’ve since learned to fall in love with math. Good luck to anyone else on the same journey!

    I remember that in school I enjoyed math class because my teacher would give us a weekly hour where we would just do problems, he’d be in class, available, and we could do it on our own or in groups, with calculators or not, and then he’d ask to see what we had done, with no pressure and a general grade to know where we were. That was a blast because we’d memorise formulas by practising and we’d actually practice because it felt like a game or a quest, I loved that, and it really helped with tests.

      @@wamyy5 yep. For me, I got 27/50 at the end of yr 11 and I thought “right. That’s not on. What do they do every year first week back? Review the past year!” So I got the textbook before I left for summer holidays and I started doing the work. I made a deal with my teacher to leave me alone and I won’t disturb his class and I wanted to know which topic we were doing next and then I proceeded to do basically every question in the book once I understood it. He agreed so long as my marks went up. I finished school with 49/50 and I got 47/50’on the last exam because it was a really difficult question I hadn’t covered in my rush to do everything. Never been asked before for over 13 years so I gambled and lost. Hahaha. Did they listen? Nope.

    hi , the video was amazing .. i wanted to share what else helped me . often times we straightly jump to solving questions of the chapter which makes us bored and leaves us wondering ,, instead divide the chapter in chunks , suppose we are handling derivatives so you can start like the first thing is
    f'(x) = nx^n-1 and then practice the type of questions around this formula ...
    i also suggest deriving trigonometric and calculas formulas to understand their origin and retain them better also dig a bit deeper to understand why we made such topic , example: calculas was develped to calculate what speed , velocities or any other sort of motion on an instant such as calculating the speed at 0.000000001 sec , we tend to take limit tends to zero for this ,which implies that time is approaching 0 but cannot be exact zero itself . maths is a language trust me , the more you speak it (practice it ) the more u get it .. but the practice must be mindful .

  • @biscuit_6081

    Here's how I approached the problem:
    Let the side of the red square= a and blue square= b
    To find: (a^2)/(b^2).
    Now to reduce the variables in the equation I let a = 1 as no specific value is given, (even if you let a to be something else, since we are finding ratios here, it'll always reduce to the simplest form. )
    now we need to find 1/(b^2).
    Notice that the circle has its diameter equal to the hypotenuse of the red square.
    => using the Pythagoras theorem we have diameter = √(1^2+1^2) = √2.
    Diameter of the circle is equal to the side of the blue square. Therefore we have, b =√2 and b^2 = 2. Hence 1/(b^2) = 1/2 .

      that is incorrect. the answer is; 1. NOT a fraction, its a ratio. 2. the answer is a 2 to 4-pi ratio (which is close to 1:2.33)

    Im 19 and I really want to study physics so I'm going to try and get better at math. I've relied on my memorization of problems but could never grasp that math sense. I like probably many people that are watching this video, always thought to myself, why me, why am I the only one that cant use math like an instinct, why can other people understand so fast, why am I so dumb?????? But I will try to get that math sense because I think math is beautiful, it is the language of the universe, it's how we understand everything around us and I want to be part of that.

    Summary:
    *Why Some Struggle with Math*
    - Math is viewed as the hardest subject by some, while being the easiest for others.
    - Secret to ease in math: developing math sense and problem-solving skills.
    - It's not about the number of formulas you know, rather, understanding the underlying principles of math.
    *Role of a Good Math Tutor*
    - Focus on problem-solving skills rather than just a bunch of formulas to memorize.
    *Problem- Remembering vs Understanding*
    - Students struggle with remembering formulas instead of comprehending the concept.
    - Problem-solution skill improves with deeper understanding and reduces the number of memorized formulas.
    - Math skill improvement is equivalent to enhancing skills as a construction worker rather than simply adding tools to your toolbox.
    *Impact of Inadequate Teachers on Learning*
    - Some teachers do not adequately explain mathematical concepts.
    - Limited understanding pressure students to focus on memorization of formulas, leading to difficulties when faced with unobserved problems.
    *Suggestion to Improve Math Understanding: Three-Part Solution*
    1. Break down the mathematical problem into its foundational parts: Understand the underlying parts that make up the problem.
    2. Review the tools needed for each part: Think about whether you comprehend each tool or concept, or merely recite it.
    - If it's the latter, seek further resources to aid understanding (like Khan Academy, CZcams videos, etc.)
    3. Try to solve the problem yourself without looking at the answer key: initially resist prompt solutions and investigate connections between the problem's components, leading to powerful problem-solving skills.
    *Outcome of Understanding Math*
    - In-depth understanding over memorizing eases problem-solving.
    - Understanding prepares you for real-life scenarios better; since solutions are seldom provided.
    - Initial effort to understand the foundation will be rewarded long term.
    - Becoming a master in math is achievable by understanding the subject matter.
    *Conclusion*
    - Repeat after me: "Math is not about memorizing."
    - Understanding math concepts deeply is the 'real' secret to excelling in the subject.
    - Following these simple steps can transform your math learning experience.
