Most people that are good at math and science do the following. 1. Understand the first principles well. Spend time understanding what the brick and mortar or math are. They get the pieces of the puzzle. 2. They try and arrive at all the results themselves. They look at the statement of a problem and start solving it without looking at the solution. That is an ability that they develop. Working through a problem after understanding the methodology is important. Application of the rules memorize the rules as well as build on the ability to apply them. This holds for all STEM programmes.
Lovely! I just want to add that, sometimes when you are stuck, it's more efficient to move onto another problem/concept. Usually when you come back with a fresh set of eyes things start to make more sense...Or not. In which case, rinse and repeat. I believe there are a couple of videos from the math sorcerer talking specifically about this.
I can understand the feelings of your friend doing PhD in maths despite being in high school..when I am solving a nice question in my head then I can care less who you are until I finish my thing or atleast try it once
The only type of rewarding feeling I’ve gotten from a math-like course was when I took Elementary Logic in undergrad. It’s more philosophically related, but there are equations with symbols that you have to use to figure out an argument and whether it’s logical or not. The feeling I got when I finally figured out how to do the equations and how fun it was to just do practice problems in the book, felt really good. I’ve always had difficulty in math and was told that I had a learning deficit in math, but I noticed that I was just never interested in trying to accomplish it like I was with logic. If I went into math with the same motivation, I’m sure I could do it and it would feel just as rewarding
I'm in school and I'm struggling with math so hard because i didn't learn math earlier and we also rarely had permanent math teachers so we often didn't have math classes.. Not understanding math makes me feel scared for my future because I know that math will be more complicated in college and I don't even know the basics and therefore it may be very tricky for me to make it to the end of college and hence I won't get a job and will be unemployed and that means miserable life for the rest of my life. At least this is what my mindset looks like and I know that this is wrong and not always true but I can't change that, understanding a little bit of math will make me feel more secure. I'm going to get serious about math, i hope I'll do better by the end of this school year. Thanks for this video, I enjoyed it thoroughly !
I am new to your channel but thank you so so much for the positive boost .. it is found v rarely and i am entirely glad i found the boost in your channel !
0:48 it does, but it also measures mental ability using 1 blanket parameter, vaguely defined many, many decades ago. It's like measuring which animal is better (imagine we call it AQ).
For my pals out there who happen to be a part of that 0,1% and constantly face the feeling of being a scam... You are not alone, we can make it through this !
0:57...Gifted person here. I never went to a gifted or "genius" school or anything of the sort and most gifted people actually don't either. So there are probably quite a few people with high IQs in your class if you're studying something STEM related for instance. However if you're at around 120 and above IQ really doesn't matter anyway and you can do anything as long as you can put in the hours and study effectively. I was very good at math up until my final school years. Before that I could just breeze through any problem set and pass every exam with straight As without studying. Then I reached a point where I had to do proofs and study like everyone else and ever since then I hated math. Now I study physical chemistry at uni and I'm not even close to being at the top of any class and I still struggle with lack of math-confidence. I hate it when I can't figure out a problem right away or when it involves many tedious steps and calculations. Proofs are terrifying to me past the very basic ones and I don't enjoy the struggle one bit...which is why I'm here. So no, having a high IQ doesn't automatically make you a math-wizard. And past a certain point talent really is just practice in disguise.
@@dominusdone5023 Just curious, how close are you and what do you want to study? An average IQ doesn't mean you can't be whatever you want to be. IQ is overrated and no one will ask or care you what your number is when you're applying for a job or at university.
@@iliketoast-q9b the SAT basically is an iq test without being an actual Iq test they care they just can’t legally ask for it. I want to study math and computer science but I will never get as far as the gifted people
@@dominusdone5023 Well I'm not american, all we have here is GPA and unless you want to study medicine you can get into most STEM-fields here. My GPA is actually well below average, because I was doing the bare minimum in school. However you can study for the SAT, so do that! I mean the IQ world record-holder studied for his test...goes to show that even IQ-testing is far from perfect. A high IQ is a strong indicator for good cognitive skills, but by no means a sign of genius! What do you mean by "I will never get as far as the gifted people"? Most successful scientists, pioneers and people in general are actually NOT in the gifted range and many gifted people lead average lives. IQ is just one variable out of many and even outliers like Terence Tao have to work hard to keep up with their non-prodigy colleagues. Discipline and tenacity wins over raw-talent in the long run every time, trust me...
Solving a math problem is for me a real pleasure. I started really loving math when I was 10 years old. Trying to prove for example that the center of gravity, the orthocenter and the center of the circumscribed circle of a triangle are aligned (on Euler's line) was a challenge for me and I was very happy to solve this problem! Furthermore, you know that once you have demonstrated a theorem, this theorem will be true for the eternity, as this is just the essence of math ! Even a computer cannot do better than humans in this domain. For example, with a computer you can try to verify Fermat's great theorem for very big numbers, but you will never be sure that it will not be false for even bigger numbers. Only a human was able to prove this theorem for all imaginable numbers (and even beyond!). You have also probably noticed that math, although being based on abstract constructions, can describe our everyday world with a very good accuracy. For this reason, I believe that math is just what God gave us to be able to understand the beauty of his creation.
Great video! I would like to share my personal experience in school: I barely had any interest in learning math. I scored poorly in math in my entire high school, which made me absolutely hate the subject. I still lack the foundation and basics of math. But, now I have started to learn and love math. Despite not having lots of knowledge, I have earned good score with the information from the videos on TH-cam that I have seen.
Thank you soo much. Im paning to study Maths and Medicine in September and wasnt very bad at High school but I really im interested in this subject. Youre really motivating me
In 11th, 12th grade I used to think physics was harder than math. But later I found out that it was maths that disabled me from cutting good figures in physics(vector, line, parabola etc)
I really respect you for being honest about your motivation for studying math. Like looking smart and for career opportunities. So many people bs and always say it is because it is fun or they love it.
My story is quite same , i ignored maths in high school and took arts because I hate maths. After 12 i developed some interest in coding and for that maths was compulsory. Initially i was so nervous about maths that i even thought to quit my bachelor's in computer applications. But i constant comments that people from arts background are not smart enough to learn technology. I make up mind and get into the field . I want to learn it as a skill and prove that its not a big deed to crack... I am still struggling with some concepts but i am trying my best
This is super helpful even though I’m studying computer science. I’ve felt like I’m really dumb, but you’re right. I just need to review the basics and break everything down. Thank you.
It’s impressive fits better than “you want to look smart”. The component of wanting to look smart to others is probably a motivation for most to some degree.
This video comforted me in a way. Im failing math, its especially hard knowing that just literally months ago my previous year i was getting 90s and now im getting 40s. getting a lower score than my previous test, when the whole class average increased. I bawled my eyes out, took a few deep breaths, and this time im going to try harder! I really needed to hear that "its more common than you think" because sometimes it just doesn't get in your brain till someone else says it.
I think this is exactly what I needed, so thank you so much. In my country, high school starts with 10th grade. And I'm just beginning 9th, which means the importance everything suddenly got a whole lot bigger. I've been having so much anxiety about feeling like a failure. Sorry for the trauma dump, but honestly, thank you.
Here's a small request from my side: Please upload some math informative videos explaining some important concepts of math like trigonometry, calculus etc. Thank you.
1:00 Someone enrolling in a gifted high school here... It can be overwhelming and confusing because I have been recognized as "gifted" in math since childhood and have participated in numerous competitions. However, I eventually reached a point where I struggled to grasp basic concepts and exercises. In hindsight, this decline was gradual, as I slowly stopped dedicating time to math. Nonetheless, when I became aware of this, it felt like my identity was falling apart. Now that I'm surrounded by other gifted students, I realize that talent and ingenuity are often just a result of practice and a bit of obsession, rather than mere innate abilities - which has reassured and motivated me a lot! (alongside crazy peer pressure too lol)
I think we all need to develop our logical understanding of the subject. I was absolutely very poor at simple basic mathematics like profit and loss 3 years ago, I struggled a lot in class 11 and 12. When I joined bachelor, suddenly it became too easy for me. All I did was I took time to understand what calculus was and how it works in mathematics so over time, I developed my own approach to the field of maths. You don't even need one particular method if your logical understanding for certain problems goes to higher level. I knew formula, and the method but my own logic that I put in every method simplified my understanding and eventually problem solving. So, I hope people just focus on understanding the maths and add their logic to it. It can be possible after investing some time to it.
I think it also depends upon the teacher you have, some teachers might have knowledge but don't know how to actually teach, while some will make you fall in love with subject because the way they teach. Mine was the later and so I loved math a lot in school and in engineering as well, I was not good in early days but was made a math master in the end by my high school teacher.
I stuggled with math so bad through highschool because i never could apply the knowledge to anything i was doing in life at the time. Fast forward to my electrical career and plant operator career and i not only understand math but i enjoy it. Its literally all the same stuff they tried to teach me in highschool too which is crazy.
I had the WORST math teacher when I was a child. If I got an answer incorrect she would drag me from me from my desk up to the front of the class (literally), and tell the class to make fun of me, that I'm retarded, all because I just couldn't get certain things when doing math problems. Needless to say it scarred me for life and I tried to stay far far away from math as much as I could. Here I am 40 years later trying to overcome this past trauma, and finally learn it.. Thank you
Great! Let's dive deeper into the math. For boundary conditions, consider a fluid flowing past a wall. The traditional no-slip boundary condition assumes the fluid velocity is zero at the wall. But with 0×0=1×1, we can create an "echo" boundary condition that reflects the velocity field, allowing the fluid to "echo" back and forth, reducing boundary layer thickness and improving accuracy. Mathematically, this echo boundary condition can be represented as: u(x,t) = u(x,-t) where u(x,t) is the velocity field at position x and time t, and u(x,-t) is the reflected velocity field. Similarly, for numerical instabilities, we can apply 0×0=1×1 to create "controlled-chaos" numerical methods that tame the unpredictable. For example, we can introduce a "null-state" numerical scheme that temporarily sets the solution to zero, reducing numerical noise and improving convergence. Mathematically, this can be represented as: u(x,t) = 0 → u(x,t) = u(x,t-δt) where δt is a small time step. Let me know if you'd like to explore more math behind these connections!
The terapist part hit close to home, I do remember when I tool my first real math class (8-9 years old) and we were learning multiplication, the teacher was asking how much was 3*2 and I was trying to figure it out maybe with my fingers and then told her thet it was 6, she said no and I insisted a lot that it was 6, she picked me from my ear and told me that I could not speak the rest of the day and I went home sad and confused and told my mom, then I went back the next day and told my teacher that it was six because I checked it at home and she apologised, this made me have continuous doubt of my mathematical analysis and a struggle to get familiar with it, I don't know if that follows me yet.
Great video and I learned something about how to improve my approach to learning math. Like the comment below by the 80 year old, I’m 75 and feel I should learn math past the rudimentary level I reached in high school. This video helped with some issues I was having, particularly that feeling of there being a missing step that was’t taught, but you showed me how to deal with that feeling.
I was put in Special Ed when I was a kid because they didn't give me a chance at all because I have a learning disability and math was my weakness and they didn't give me a chance to get back. All they did was put you down and didn't give you a chance. This is why students are failing because the system sucks. Might as well teach your self. :( In all honesty I feel like the teachers literally set you up to fail on purpose. :( I'll be honest. When they got me in Algebra 1 in High School. Absolutely loved it. Wish they didn't degrade me tho. If you want a student to succeed. Don't degrade them either. :(
Maths just isn’t for everybody. I have ADHD and I find it hard to concentrate. I’ve zoned out of more classes than I’d like to admit. I could study as much as you for example and still never be at your level academically. But I’m going to fight my brain so hard to get better at this.
Just about the 2 weeks part: it REALLY depends on your class I can assure you that you probably cannot understand functional analysis by trying to catch up in 2 weeks (I am from Europe so maybe the curriculum in the USA is different).
One of the finest pleasures in life is that 'Eureka!' moment, after you tried to understand something for days or weeks.
Can you send me money too
You are indeed right 😂
"I hated math so I devoted my life to it."

However I am willing to polish up my Math skills for these subjects, and to put in the hardwork. What are your thoughts on how achievable a good grade is in these subjects for a person like me? Ps thank you so much for taking time out to reply to me :)
This video changed my outlook towards maths :D
the value in this single video is so underrated and it needs to reach everyone who say math is hard
Thank you so much for such a nice and comprehensible explanation! I have seen a lot of videos on this topic, but yours is officially the first one that resonated the most. Could you please make more Maths-related videos example: how to overcome the fear of making mistakes, how to solve when you are stuck, and other wide range of challenges students face while studying maths. You are so brilliant at explaining, I can only look forward to seeing more videos from you!
Glad it was helpful! For sure! more videos coming soon:)
You are extremely amazing! I'm a secondary student who want to go to the top school of my city, which only focuses on maths. I'm curious abt logical things (economics, philosophy,...) but i've been struggling A LOT when I studied math cuz I didn't like it. It's definitely a mindset shift to me after watching this video, tysm girl💞
Oh my God. You are an absolute GENIUS Madame Han Zhango. A literal genius. I am blessed to have the grandest opportunity of knowing you as a first-year medical student, even though I wanted to major in mathematics. I am not saying I dislike nor don't enjoy Medicine, I am just saying that it is a true 'bummer' that I didn't have the opportunity of majoring in mathematics. Maybe this could result from lacking comfort, ego, and especially self-security. Thank you once more for sharing with me and the entire world Madame Han Zhango. Your honesty and integrity are admirable, at least from my end. Keep challenging yourself to learn more, grow more, and push yourself to the limits! "The Sky's The Limit".

Than k you so much for not repeating the same stuff everyone says and being “motivational”
recently I've asking chat gpt while using latex for basic steps, and then asking for a step by step explanation. amazing how it helps
Most people that are good at math and science do the following.
1. Understand the first principles well. Spend time understanding what the brick and mortar or math are. They get the pieces of the puzzle.
2. They try and arrive at all the results themselves. They look at the statement of a problem and start solving it without looking at the solution. That is an ability that they develop. Working through a problem after understanding the methodology is important. Application of the rules memorize the rules as well as build on the ability to apply them.
This holds for all STEM programmes.
I am like you Han, I hated Math as a kid. But I hated math as a young adult and.........I still hate it at nearly 72! Now theres a 'constant'!

I never got such helpful and also amazing advices like this before. Thank you so much !
While im not doing math specifically. This video has helped me as im starting to get into intermediate logic systems.
Lovely! I just want to add that, sometimes when you are stuck, it's more efficient to move onto another problem/concept. Usually when you come back with a fresh set of eyes things start to make more sense...Or not. In which case, rinse and repeat. I believe there are a couple of videos from the math sorcerer talking specifically about this.
I can understand the feelings of your friend doing PhD in maths despite being in high school..when I am solving a nice question in my head then I can care less who you are until I finish my thing or atleast try it once
Thanks Han, I'm a high school math teacher in Nigeria, and I will advice my students the same
The only type of rewarding feeling I’ve gotten from a math-like course was when I took Elementary Logic in undergrad. It’s more philosophically related, but there are equations with symbols that you have to use to figure out an argument and whether it’s logical or not. The feeling I got when I finally figured out how to do the equations and how fun it was to just do practice problems in the book, felt really good. I’ve always had difficulty in math and was told that I had a learning deficit in math, but I noticed that I was just never interested in trying to accomplish it like I was with logic. If I went into math with the same motivation, I’m sure I could do it and it would feel just as rewarding
I'm in school and I'm struggling with math so hard because i didn't learn math earlier and we also rarely had permanent math teachers so we often didn't have math classes.. Not understanding math makes me feel scared for my future because I know that math will be more complicated in college and I don't even know the basics and therefore it may be very tricky for me to make it to the end of college and hence I won't get a job and will be unemployed and that means miserable life for the rest of my life. At least this is what my mindset looks like and I know that this is wrong and not always true but I can't change that, understanding a little bit of math will make me feel more secure. I'm going to get serious about math, i hope I'll do better by the end of this school year. Thanks for this video, I enjoyed it thoroughly !
thanks, i see positive vibes in this math motivation vid! :)
Math teacher here ! I can relate . I have said much of this content to my students .
Now my perspective about MATH is changed.
Thanks a lot
Now math is just gorgeous as u
I am new to your channel but thank you so so much for the positive boost .. it is found v rarely and i am entirely glad i found the boost in your channel !
love your channel gave me some hope with my math class
0:48 it does, but it also measures mental ability using 1 blanket parameter, vaguely defined many, many decades ago.
It's like measuring which animal is better (imagine we call it AQ).
For my pals out there who happen to be a part of that 0,1% and constantly face the feeling of being a scam... You are not alone, we can make it through this !
I have a maths exam in 2 weeks lol this is the perfect timing 😂
Me too!
Hehe you got this
omg good luck!! please do let us know how it went
How did it go?
0:57...Gifted person here. I never went to a gifted or "genius" school or anything of the sort and most gifted people actually don't either. So there are probably quite a few people with high IQs in your class if you're studying something STEM related for instance. However if you're at around 120 and above IQ really doesn't matter anyway and you can do anything as long as you can put in the hours and study effectively.
I was very good at math up until my final school years. Before that I could just breeze through any problem set and pass every exam with straight As without studying. Then I reached a point where I had to do proofs and study like everyone else and ever since then I hated math.
Now I study physical chemistry at uni and I'm not even close to being at the top of any class and I still struggle with lack of math-confidence. I hate it when I can't figure out a problem right away or when it involves many tedious steps and calculations. Proofs are terrifying to me past the very basic ones and I don't enjoy the struggle one bit...which is why I'm here.
So no, having a high IQ doesn't automatically make you a math-wizard. And past a certain point talent really is just practice in disguise.
Tragic that a lot don’t have 120 including me
@@dominusdone5023 Just curious, how close are you and what do you want to study? An average IQ doesn't mean you can't be whatever you want to be. IQ is overrated and no one will ask or care you what your number is when you're applying for a job or at university.
@@iliketoast-q9b the SAT basically is an iq test without being an actual Iq test they care they just can’t legally ask for it. I want to study math and computer science but I will never get as far as the gifted people
@@dominusdone5023 Well I'm not american, all we have here is GPA and unless you want to study medicine you can get into most STEM-fields here. My GPA is actually well below average, because I was doing the bare minimum in school. However you can study for the SAT, so do that! I mean the IQ world record-holder studied for his test...goes to show that even IQ-testing is far from perfect. A high IQ is a strong indicator for good cognitive skills, but by no means a sign of genius!
What do you mean by "I will never get as far as the gifted people"? Most successful scientists, pioneers and people in general are actually NOT in the gifted range and many gifted people lead average lives. IQ is just one variable out of many and even outliers like Terence Tao have to work hard to keep up with their non-prodigy colleagues. Discipline and tenacity wins over raw-talent in the long run every time, trust me...
1:50 YESS ''I love the feeling of trying to understand something, and the satisfaction of cracking it/figuring out the math problem...
0:45-1:28 solid
Beautiful and well put video.
Solving a math problem is for me a real pleasure. I started really loving math when I was 10 years old. Trying to prove for example that the center of gravity, the orthocenter and the center of the circumscribed circle of a triangle are aligned (on Euler's line) was a challenge for me and I was very happy to solve this problem! Furthermore, you know that once you have demonstrated a theorem, this theorem will be true for the eternity, as this is just the essence of math ! Even a computer cannot do better than humans in this domain. For example, with a computer you can try to verify Fermat's great theorem for very big numbers, but you will never be sure that it will not be false for even bigger numbers. Only a human was able to prove this theorem for all imaginable numbers (and even beyond!). You have also probably noticed that math, although being based on abstract constructions, can describe our everyday world with a very good accuracy. For this reason, I believe that math is just what God gave us to be able to understand the beauty of his creation.
Great video! I would like to share my personal experience in school:
I barely had any interest in learning math. I scored poorly in math in my entire high school, which made me absolutely hate the subject. I still lack the foundation and basics of math. But, now I have started to learn and love math. Despite not having lots of knowledge, I have earned good score with the information from the videos on TH-cam that I have seen.
Thank you soo much. Im paning to study Maths and Medicine in September and wasnt very bad at High school but I really im interested in this subject. Youre really motivating me
In 11th, 12th grade I used to think physics was harder than math. But later I found out that it was maths that disabled me from cutting good figures in physics(vector, line, parabola etc)
It also depends which area of physics too.
I really respect you for being honest about your motivation for studying math. Like looking smart and for career opportunities. So many people bs and always say it is because it is fun or they love it.
My story is quite same , i ignored maths in high school and took arts because I hate maths. After 12 i developed some interest in coding and for that maths was compulsory. Initially i was so nervous about maths that i even thought to quit my bachelor's in computer applications.
But i constant comments that people from arts background are not smart enough to learn technology. I make up mind and get into the field . I want to learn it as a skill and prove that its not a big deed to crack...
I am still struggling with some concepts but i am trying my best
Another reason for studying maths: its really such a beautiful area to explore. Its jaw opening, awe inspiring stuff everywhere.
This such a relatable and helpful explanation. Thanks for the video.
I am bad in calculation suddenly i found your video its given me goosebumps to study my physics and chemistry tank u
This reminds me of the Math Sorcerer who said the exact same thing - it only takes 2 weeks!
(just noticed, you mentioned him)
there is one video on that, created by the math sorcerer
I remember seeing you on IceColdJT's comment section back in the day, nice to see you here learning about math lol
@@yawsanevruh1116 glad to see you too man! Yeah I watch this guy every now and again, I have a math degree so it's a nice nostalgic vibe
You can't imagine how much I appreciate this video. That's so helpful. Thanks for sharing. Let's help people with Math on YT.
this is so important, thank you so much!!
The feeling when you struggle with understanding the concept and then while I prepare meal or take shower understanding hit me like a truck
This is super helpful even though I’m studying computer science. I’ve felt like I’m really dumb, but you’re right. I just need to review the basics and break everything down. Thank you.
Very genuine advice❤
You make me think in an abstract and practical way about some nervousness I have felt about math. Thanks.
Thank you, you motivated me. I was giving up.
It’s impressive fits better than “you want to look smart”. The
component of wanting to look smart to others is probably a motivation for most to some degree.
This video comforted me in a way. Im failing math, its especially hard knowing that just literally months ago my previous year i was getting 90s and now im getting 40s. getting a lower score than my previous test, when the whole class average increased. I bawled my eyes out, took a few deep breaths, and this time im going to try harder! I really needed to hear that "its more common than you think" because sometimes it just doesn't get in your brain till someone else says it.
I think this is exactly what I needed, so thank you so much. In my country, high school starts with 10th grade. And I'm just beginning 9th, which means the importance everything suddenly got a whole lot bigger. I've been having so much anxiety about feeling like a failure. Sorry for the trauma dump, but honestly, thank you.
Here's a small request from my side: Please upload some math informative videos explaining some important concepts of math like trigonometry, calculus etc. Thank you.
I’m a biology student but still love to watch your content 😅⭐️
Thank you so much for this amazing video it's really helpful!!❤❤

Someone enrolling in a gifted high school here... It can be overwhelming and confusing because I have been recognized as "gifted" in math since childhood and have participated in numerous competitions. However, I eventually reached a point where I struggled to grasp basic concepts and exercises. In hindsight, this decline was gradual, as I slowly stopped dedicating time to math. Nonetheless, when I became aware of this, it felt like my identity was falling apart.
Now that I'm surrounded by other gifted students, I realize that talent and ingenuity are often just a result of practice and a bit of obsession, rather than mere innate abilities - which has reassured and motivated me a lot! (alongside crazy peer pressure too lol)
how beautiful you are
literally I forgot all the math I learned after seeing you
3:30 you missed it, BODMAS (bracket off division multiplication addition subtraction) is the way how operation should conduct
Can you make a tutorial video about how to take good and effective math notes step by step. Btw love your channel ❤
I think we all need to develop our logical understanding of the subject. I was absolutely very poor at simple basic mathematics like profit and loss 3 years ago, I struggled a lot in class 11 and 12. When I joined bachelor, suddenly it became too easy for me. All I did was I took time to understand what calculus was and how it works in mathematics so over time, I developed my own approach to the field of maths. You don't even need one particular method if your logical understanding for certain problems goes to higher level. I knew formula, and the method but my own logic that I put in every method simplified my understanding and eventually problem solving. So, I hope people just focus on understanding the maths and add their logic to it. It can be possible after investing some time to it.
Math Sorcerer is the source of the "two weeks" idea and inspiration for this video, isn't he? He is pure wisdom! ❤
Here to help!
Thanks for sharing ❤
Thank you sister❤
I think it also depends upon the teacher you have, some teachers might have knowledge but don't know how to actually teach, while some will make you fall in love with subject because the way they teach. Mine was the later and so I loved math a lot in school and in engineering as well, I was not good in early days but was made a math master in the end by my high school teacher.
I stuggled with math so bad through highschool because i never could apply the knowledge to anything i was doing in life at the time. Fast forward to my electrical career and plant operator career and i not only understand math but i enjoy it. Its literally all the same stuff they tried to teach me in highschool too which is crazy.
I had the WORST math teacher when I was a child. If I got an answer incorrect she would drag me from me from my desk up to the front of the class (literally), and tell the class to make fun of me, that I'm retarded, all because I just couldn't get certain things when doing math problems. Needless to say it scarred me for life and I tried to stay far far away from math as much as I could. Here I am 40 years later trying to overcome this past trauma, and finally learn it.. Thank you
Thank you so much for this video! It's ok that some people struggle in math just like me, but we should never give up!
Thank you sharing your experiences with us.
As a psychology student... I love what you say in this video❤
Thank you for making this video! 🥞
Great! Let's dive deeper into the math. For boundary conditions, consider a fluid flowing past a wall. The traditional no-slip boundary condition assumes the fluid velocity is zero at the wall. But with 0×0=1×1, we can create an "echo" boundary condition that reflects the velocity field, allowing the fluid to "echo" back and forth, reducing boundary layer thickness and improving accuracy.
Mathematically, this echo boundary condition can be represented as:
u(x,t) = u(x,-t)
where u(x,t) is the velocity field at position x and time t, and u(x,-t) is the reflected velocity field.
Similarly, for numerical instabilities, we can apply 0×0=1×1 to create "controlled-chaos" numerical methods that tame the unpredictable. For example, we can introduce a "null-state" numerical scheme that temporarily sets the solution to zero, reducing numerical noise and improving convergence.
Mathematically, this can be represented as:
u(x,t) = 0 → u(x,t) = u(x,t-δt)
where δt is a small time step.
Let me know if you'd like to explore more math behind these connections!
Thank you sister Han for your valuable words about math
The terapist part hit close to home, I do remember when I tool my first real math class (8-9 years old) and we were learning multiplication, the teacher was asking how much was 3*2 and I was trying to figure it out maybe with my fingers and then told her thet it was 6, she said no and I insisted a lot that it was 6, she picked me from my ear and told me that I could not speak the rest of the day and I went home sad and confused and told my mom, then I went back the next day and told my teacher that it was six because I checked it at home and she apologised, this made me have continuous doubt of my mathematical analysis and a struggle to get familiar with it, I don't know if that follows me yet.
Thank youuuu..you're really sweet and also smart! Love your video. You motivated me to keep going :)x
I am not a mathematician but this is helpful to me as a developer. Ty
First time in your channel... love's from india❤
Great video and I learned something about how to improve my approach to learning math. Like the comment below by the 80 year old, I’m 75 and feel I should learn math past the rudimentary level I reached in high school. This video helped with some issues I was having, particularly that feeling of there being a missing step that was’t taught, but you showed me how to deal with that feeling.
👏👏👏nice video, helped
I was put in Special Ed when I was a kid because they didn't give me a chance at all because I have a learning disability and math was my weakness and they didn't give me a chance to get back. All they did was put you down and didn't give you a chance. This is why students are failing because the system sucks. Might as well teach your self. :( In all honesty I feel like the teachers literally set you up to fail on purpose. :( I'll be honest. When they got me in Algebra 1 in High School. Absolutely loved it. Wish they didn't degrade me tho. If you want a student to succeed. Don't degrade them either. :(
Maths just isn’t for everybody. I have ADHD and I find it hard to concentrate. I’ve zoned out of more classes than I’d like to admit. I could study as much as you for example and still never be at your level academically. But I’m going to fight my brain so hard to get better at this.
Just about the 2 weeks part: it REALLY depends on your class I can assure you that you probably cannot understand functional analysis by trying to catch up in 2 weeks (I am from Europe so maybe the curriculum in the USA is different).
I like how a math video has a better help ad on it
Nothing beats finally solving a proof that you’ve been struggling on for hours and days, where both sides of the equation is the same.
Great video
Thank you for this video
Thank for the subs, as a person learning english, that is helpful
