    My problem was that everything seemed to be taught so abstract. Give me a math formula to memorize and don’t explain why it’s useful? It makes no sense to me. Explain how and why it’s used, ok! I have context, I can begin to understand this now.

      I thought I was just bad at math for most of my life. Turns out, I’m actually quite good at it once I understand how it actually fits into the real world.

        Yeah I was very good at SOME math. Turns out having you dad drag you out to the garage to explain angles and geometry to you using a racecar is very helpful if you’re into that sort of thing lol
