Some thoughts on learning Mathematics?

Learning Math can be easy as crunching numbers on the calculator!


There can be dozens of reasons why people hate mathematics,  "It is so confusing",  "It defies the common sense", "People who know how to solve it BRAG about it";  Luckily,  people who complained about math still have the desire to improve mathematics skills, at least want to pass the math courses. Shame on those simply giving up math!

(1) Easy example first !  
      It is like installing some furniture from IKEA by following the manual,  or learn to use some high-tech step by step by following the demo. Everybody has the learning process. The only difference would be the time difference. Some people figure it out a little bit quicker, but it doesn't mean that's always good! ......

      Because they have a bigger chance to make mistakes! There is always some balance between the speed and the quality! Also the trying/thinking process will definite help you in the future.

(2)  One example at a time! One step at a time! No matter how smart/fast of a computer or calculator, can you type two keys, crunch two numbers at the same time and get the output at the same time? Most of us are not genius as Albert Einstein(the funny thing is that, he is a genius, but he can't easily get a job after he got his degree, the same as the dumb little doctor here), enjoy the moment after you did the example by yourself! Grab a beer to cheer or buy yourself a fancy/dreaming dress.

One at a time!
