Learn Math With Zero Knowledge

[@Nooreazy]

If anyone is having doubts, I learned math from zero after graduating high school. Like I didn't even know fractions. I now have a bachelor's of engineering in chemical engineering. And you too can learn math, just like I did. I highly suggest KZbin to supplement your learning and you will thank yourself for it. As math is used everyday.

I'm 81 years old, and always had the dream of being a mathematician; and although I had a paper published once in the Journal of Symbolic Logic in 1988, The False Assumption Underlying Berry's Paradox, and have created the foundation of a new set theory, I don't really know math, or set theory for that matter, at all. This video points the way, it seems, or at least gives a place to start. So I'm going to get the book and see how far I can go with and beyond it in the limited time I have left.

I'm actually self studying using your Udemy class College Algebra, I bought several books you recommended (in your first video last year and in the recent one as well), but instead of paper I use my iPad Air and the app GoodNotes 5. To prevent distractions, I turn on Do Not Disturb. So I can follow Udemy on my Mac, writing on my iPad and using my iPhone as a timer. To me the benefit of using a notes app on my iPad, is that it takes no space and I can review my notes (usually on Sunday). Like you, I learn by reading and writing, so it helps to achieve both. I'm 42 and self studying math to help me prepare to return to college next September. Your channel is a blessing. Thank you for your amazing content.

[@TomokoAbe_]

I remember when I jumped into college algebra, as I was 50 years old and decided to get my bachelor's. Well, I did not take any math for 20+ years. What I did is start from the BEGINNING. I bought this book that went from basic math all the way to algebra, statistics and some trig. It was just one book and I studied it DAILY. I definitely needed that basic math because my instructor was anti-calculator and the only time she allowed it was when it was mandatory to use. Anything you could figure out without a calculator you had to do by hand. So half the exams were without a calculator and the rest was with one. It was online college algebra and I ended up studying about 6 to 8 hours a day but I made an "A" in the class. Most of the students dropped out because she was tough. I have my Master's degree now. But learning from scratch is essential. I mean training your brain to do problems by hand without a calculator--addition, subtraction, multiplication, division problems, proved essential. If you do not do these problems by hand, I guarantee you will forget how. It is not everyday you do long division, or dealing with fractions. So you really DO have to relearn everything---but the process is rapid as long as you study DAILY. KZbin was very helpful. There are times you WILL get stuck but there is always some instructor who will explain how to do it in simple terms. I remember some of those algebra problems are super LONG. I mean you are on your second or third page still working on a single problem! If you mess up (usually SIMPLE math error) you screwed up the whole problem. She had weekly TIMED mandatory quizzes and the tests went over several chapters, mandatory to take them at the college as they were proctored. If you miss two quizzes she would give an "F" to the student and she never gave points or dropped your worst exam grade. Online is a LOT harder than in person. But as I was working I chose to go that route. She was tough but I sure loved that professor. She was awesome! PS: I normally suck in math. IF I CAN MAKE A's in math, so can you.

I never did homework and feel asleep in all my exams, while getting kicked out of school on a regular basis. Despite all this I still managed to pass all my exams. Now I'm ready to revisit and learn what I should've been learning back then at the age of 28. I take particular care now to explain my working out, as it helps others to understand.

Some other books are big and the pages flop around, so you spend more time wrestling with the book instead of wrestling with the problems. (Go ahead & mark up the book. You own it! I use highlighter a lot as I study. Pencil in comments, because you may want to remove them later.)

Thanks for sharing!

[@ffilcnikrud8975]

As an English Major with a minor in Theology, I’m going to take your advice. I was always weak in algebra but geometry I always got great grades? Math is a fascinating area learning and I want to brush up and learn the math that I barely survived 30 years ago

[@inezaa]

Picking this book up right now thank you

[@Zorbak962]

The book looks great! I just ordered it off Amazon. thanks for the recommendation and video!

[@Quotesclub24]

This is the best math book i have ever seen in the bases of explanations but there are few ans which are wrong. It's okay and your explantion is super good

[@StopWhining491]

A math book with answers! Phenomenal! Texts with answers only to odd-numbered problems don't encourage students to attempt even-numbered problems. If you don't know where you're going, how do you know when you get there?

[@kevans2984]

I teach middle and high school maths through calculus. These books are terrific and I often incorporate them as supplementary material for additional help and concept review. Simple, concise and thorough

[@madz48261]

Always great to get new information. This book looks amazing.

[@TrilokNegi10]

A Nice book ! Feels like beautifully taken notes.

[@habibtheonly]

This is my favourite channel. I especially like it when you explain everything so nicely. I wish you a lot of success with the channel and happy life.

[@jithendram9961]

Thanks a lot. This is exactly what I was searching for and this has come in my luck by YT recommendation.

[@TheMathSorcerer]

Glad to hear it!

[@ollielon5926]

Another book that I've heard many people talk about is the Art of Problem Solving. It's actually a series. It goes from pre-algebra all the way to Calculus and competition math.

[@nigelcardoso7653]

Can you link the book?

[@elephantintheroom5678]

I absolutely LOVE that book! Between that book and Krista King's courses on Udemy I have learnt a lot of math, whilst teaching my son.

[@PyramidHeadDezby]

This book helped me in my accuplacer test. I haven’t done Math since dropping out of high school. Highly recommend it!

[@mahmudsyakiran803]

After watching this video, I went to Amazon and ordered one. Thank You very much!

[@LinusE]

I'm currently studying to become a teacher in languages. However, back in my school days I loved physics and maths and I wanna read those subjects again and maybe add them to my teaching license, this channel is awesome!

[@Byronic_Hero]

Due to my lifelong failure in math, I have also been looking into B.Ed in TESOL and social sciences but those ones also require maths, statistical methods which I won't be able to survive. Can you please tell me more about your degree program and where are you doing it from?

[@LinusE]

@@Byronic_Hero I live in Sweden so regulations might be different from yours. I am currently finishing my degree as a language teacher. In order to add math (or any other subject) I need to X amount of university credits in that subject in order to add it. Depending on the subject, the amount differs. For math it’s 120 credits which equals 2 years studies. Usually universities here have specific ”packs” specifically for teacher students that contain the math needed for someone who wants to teach. You can ofc do a bachelors in math but that’s a bit much work

[@Byronic_Hero]

@@LinusE What if someone doesn't want to teach mathematics, is there a different stream for them that focuses on maybe English? Not to sound creepy but I am stuck abroad in a menial job and I am grasping at a straw. If you could further tell me about the university and the Bachelor's program that might be suitable for me. I'd appreciate it a lot, thanks.

[@LinusE]

@@Byronic_Hero if you’re looking at teaching I’d suggest various teaching programmes. Teacher programmes aren’t (atleast here) usually ”bachelors” or ”masters” but simply teacher programmes. As far as bachelors goes, that’s entirely up to you depending on what you want to do

[@f1xzor]

Great video again! As always! ❤️

[@TheBruceKeller]

I've been through college level Stats and Business Stats, but honestly that was all 15+ years ago... so this might be a good way to start back up to make sure I know the fundamentals really well!

[@IamPoob]

Thanks, I've been looking for something exactly like this!

[@cooltier6174]

I love your content it's extremely influential.

[@ashaer]

I miss being a mathematician. Had to give up most of its rigor to survive working in the corporate jungle. Analysis, topology, measure, functional analysis, manifolds and algebra were my tools for the longest time.

[@TheMathSorcerer]

I understand! At least we have self-study:) You can use your spare time to read a little, collect some books:) It can be so much fun!

[@dexter073]

Thanks for the great video!. Your videos always inspires me to keep learning mathematics. It would be helpful if you could make a future video on utilizing GPT3 or other AIs for learning mathematics. The GPT3 plugin for logseq is just awesome and I did already challenge it with some IMO questions. I think it did a reasonable job of solving them and presenting step-by-step solutions. For example, Me: For any nonempty set S of real numbers, let σ(S) denote the sum of the elements of S. Given a set A of n positive integers, consider the collection of all distinct sums σ(S) as S ranges over the nonempty subsets of A. Prove that this collection of sums can be partitioned into n classes so that in each class, the ratio of the largest sum to the smallest sum does not exceed 2. GPT: Proof: We will prove this by induction on n. Base Case: When n = 1, the set A contains only one positive integer, say a. Then the collection of all distinct sums σ(S) as S ranges over the nonempty subsets of A is just {a}. This can be partitioned into one class, and the ratio of the largest sum to the smallest sum is 1, which does not exceed 2. Inductive Step: Assume that the statement is true for n = k. We will prove it for n = k + 1. Let A = {a1, a2, ..., ak, ak+1} be a set of k + 1 positive integers. Let S1 = {a1, a2, ..., ak} and S2 = {a1, a2, ..., ak, ak+1}. Then the collection of all distinct sums σ(S) as S ranges over the nonempty subsets of A is {σ(S1), σ(S2)}. By the inductive hypothesis, the collection of all distinct sums σ(S) as S ranges over the nonempty subsets of S1 can be partitioned into k classes so that in each class, the ratio of the largest sum to the smallest sum does not exceed 2. Let C1, C2, ..., Ck be these k classes. Then the collection of all distinct sums σ(S) as S ranges over the nonempty subsets of A can be partitioned into k + 1 classes as follows: C1 ∪ {σ(S2)}, C2 ∪ {σ(S2)}, ..., Ck ∪ {σ(S2)}. In each of these classes, the ratio of the largest sum to the smallest sum is at most 2. Therefore, by induction, the statement is true for all n.

[@robynholliday4794]

This is the book I’m starting with - excellent

[@homamthewise6941]

Great vid as always

[@Aryanandha30]

I love the design of the book! It looks like a handwritten notebook. Personally, I would love to learn from a book like that

[@TheBilgepumper]

I hope you can review the geometry book in the Big Fat Notebooks series sometime. Or some more high-school level geometry books in general. The book in this review looks perfect for some friends of mine, also.

[@John_Smith__]

I agree that to learn Mathematics everyone needs to read And Write and make exercises ... there is no other way. Great little book for beginners no doubt.
