Math seems difficult because it takes time and energy. Many people don't experience sufficient time to "get" math lessons, and they fall behind as the teacher moves on. Many move on to study more complex concepts with a shaky foundation. We often end up with a weak structure that is doomed to collapse at some point.

Before, I really hated math because I can't relate to it. But when I developed an interest in Astrology then in Astronomy, that's when I realized that Mathematics is not only the Mother of Science but for me, Mathematics is the language of the Universe. I believe that when learning math, it has to be personal to you. Well, that's my 2 cents. 👍

This is so right on - I've shown this from the then highly controversial "math" program I developed in way back in my remedial tutoring days which also began k-4. Controversial because my preference was to start kids off whenever possible BEFORE they could even count to 30 with fractions as their FIRST math experience. Fractions were learned thru origami, geometry and Egyptian Rope Surveying using an Egyptain "tape measure" the kids make themselves along with a tall and wide triangular strung across and plumb line intersection leveling homemade tool . Take any piece of light rope and four different colored markers. Basically you take any made up unit of length like a domino works great and you lay it over the white nylon rope and with black mark away; at every 12 marks carefully, double mark, and write the next number of say 1 thru 50 for a 12unit x 50 tape measure. Then take another color and mark every third mark, another color marks every fourth and the third color marks every 5th (you get the 3-4-5 ratio from which you can make a perfect right angle and all kinds of other cool stuff.) You only do geometry with a compass and straight edge. You also make geometric optical illusions of curves-art by using only straight lines and have the kids slowly NO-pressure learn precision (very important) thru geometric coloring books AFTER teaching them the seven ways to hold and move a crayon or colored pencil. You create puzzles to solve and just let them play - they will - IF IF no pressure or expectations. Colored paper used and scissor cut into fractions. Show them the radius circumscribed onto the circle circumference to create the hexagon oh and how to divide a cherry pie into six pieces and also show to construct the pentagon. Thru play they will learn BASIC addition subtraction multiplication and division subliminally without any "instruction." To convince parents why your starting with fractions show this simple experiment explaining the first "math" (actually Arithmetic but just use the math word because THEY ARE learning thru relationship EXPERIENCES anyway). Get 10 kids and 5 donuts very unevenly raised, 20/10 is better and divide the kids into two groups from one group those kids do the cutting the kids from the other group do the choosing which half. Watch what happens, those kids with the least "math" instruction (BS) will not use the diameter in half approach but look closely and analyze the unevenness before cutting. Then the results most often will not LOOK anything close to half and half approaching equals BUT BUT instead weigh the two halves and see for yourself the closer results - that was some pretty advanced mathematical vector-approaching thinking for 5 year olds. Lay out simple buildings outside on the pavement using chalk and your Egyptian tape measure and have all kinds of fun, diagonals to check squareness etc etc. Do simple simple division and multiply problems geometrically drawn instead (NO paper, NO numerals) these kids will have NO problems understanding multiply and divide fractions like the insanity of normal instructions creating opposite sentences. "When one M's and D's whole numbers you get more and less but it is the opposite when doing fractions" - with colored paper cut-outs 4 pieces of 1/3rds = 1 circle plus a little bit (1/3). I took no money until after 6 months or so when the kids could do double digit times double digit FAST and accurate in their heads and divide two digit in to 6-7 digit also in their heads using ZERO multiplication tables but instead the Egyptian and/or Russian Abacus method of halves and doubling and the modified E pyramid of 1-2-5-7 instead of the standard E P of 1-2-4-8 because 5 times a number = half times ten (just add a zero) then add base number doubled to get the 7 result and from there - - then build TO the division "goal" - - easy to learn - in your head when taught the simple rules / tricks a quick mental cast out nines to verify results. Oh and when adding tall lists of say 3 digit or more numbers kids start from the LEFT and work right instead of the other way around and they do the whole think mentally with NO pencils and NO (BS) carrying - accurately to very impressive results. BUT by the book school-principles WILL often can mad - "you can't do that cause that is NOT the way its done regardless if you get the right answers in one-fifth time time - or less!! And boy does "this-kind" get mad. It all works believe me - try it yourself.

@@georgecarlinn6288 Yes that idea - to make a free multi-you tube course for free (no ads I get paid for) is on my agenda - tho I am very busy with other projects right now. You will read on many YT's claiming to teach Egyptian Arithmetic that their method of division (mentioned in original post) which utilizes using ONLY unit fractions (always a ONE on "top" thus 3/4 is the same as 1/2+1/4 is how to write it in Egyptian) anyway you will read that in many remainders you get wild results. Yes but on the plus side building to the quotient using UNIT fractions ONLY instead of decimals allows young kids multiple ways to get the same answer AND emphasizes what I believe was a major factor in WHY Egyptian math intentionally did not use a zero (other then empties for place value) because of their view that division is more important then summing or accumulation - that all numbers must relate to one. My research found that unit fractions were used until in the 1500's. Society needs to more concentrate on how it divides things (production) then how one individual can create large person sums (wealth) from unequal divisions OF whatever production. Is right? Yes or no? Try dividing a loaf of bread into seven servings using both the decimal system and the unit-fraction system - it shows the obvious practical advantage of the obvious choice - IF you had to actually cut a loaf. This explanation can be found in some of the older books no longer in print on Egyptian "Math". Final additional example - dividing the diameter of a circle into nine parts and making a square the side-lengths of 8/9ths parts IF you draw this geometrically and add a few Archimedes "Constructive Geometry" tricks that uses a Gnome-Square (which moves) you can further come incredibly close to finding the length of the circumference. The square a size of 8/9ths of the diameter of a circle works out to 3.16 if my memory's correct. Archimedes at least gave credit to the Egyptians for their EXACT theory of squaring a circle that can be achieved using Archimedes geometric tool that neatly trisects angles. Thus he wrote their formula for finding the area of a circle which, algebraically, works out EXACTLY - try it. Extend a diameter-ray past the circumference from the center the second leg of this triangle is the radius at 90 degrees to the ray and then from that point with your compass set to the length of the circumference as the hypotenuse finish-scribe the triangle - its area is the area of the circle - exactly NOT approximately. (Per ole Archy AND like I said it writes out nicely as a proof).

I went from being a D- math student in high school to a teacher's helper in the tenth grade. I took a class called bonehead math by other students. Thanks to my math teacher Mr. Powell I got over my fear of math. Mr. Powell was special, in that he made me feel special by memorizing the formula for a magic square (where all the numbers on a line would equal the same number), right before the Rubix cube became a thing. Our School district was shut down after that so I didn't pursue math as an extended course.

I completely agree with what this video says, but also feel I've had a counter experience of math. From a very young age (6 or 7), I can recall visualising numbers in my head. By the time I was 8, I could "see" basic addition in my head. I still don't know how to explain it. This continued all the way up to calculus, where I found I could mentally deconstruct integrals and derivatives to more basic math. I've never been able to relate to "math is hard", and I've often wondered if something different happened when I started learning numbers or mathematics. To be clear, I'm not a math genius or able to calculate complex formulas quickly in my head. It's just the concepts that make sense and allow me to work with math without getting overwhelmed by cognitive load. Thank you for this video, as it presents some interesting research on how math is learned. I've always been keen to share knowledge and try to help others as I can, so this is really useful to have in mind.

The best way to remember math formulas is to construct them yourself and understand where they are coming from (and of course using them a lot). In the courses in college I took they didn't teach the formulas. They just taught when to use them. It was awful. So when they were going over different problems and solving them, I was researching or trying to figure out some of the formulas on my own and I still remember most of them and can explain why they are the way they are. If you need them quickly then the best method I can suggest is the flash card method. You can search what that is and practice. The act of creating the cards as well as practicing with them makes remembering things extremely quick but it does not mean you'll understand the formula (which is still the best way to remember it or even quickly reconstruct it if you forget).

I could go on and on.

The exercise was just following the signs that the problem presented. No integrity. New math taught Americans the dynamics that were necessary for the Integrity that math presents. If you understand education, you will recognize that the integrity of an idea lies in the dynamics and not the problem. If you accept destiny as an answer, then everything will fall into place.

Is there any Math specialist? My daughter is 1 and half year can I do anything to teach her little bit math? If yes then how ?

Some people do not have an aptitude for math and no amount of "teaching" will cause them to "get it"--ever. No clever "program" or technique or method or system will help them--period.

What a crock. You can learn Arithmetic by manipulating objects in the beginning but the power of Mathematics is in its use of symbols to quantitatively analyze different and seemingly unrelated scenarios.

there's a quote I once read and can't remember exactly or source. It was in an old book about mathematics (history, concepts, curiosities, biographies, etc), and it went something like "after a point the pen does algebra by itself" - the point being how powerful algebra, not the pen, was, because of, not despite, it's level of abstraction (which is closely related to it's use of symbols). I've also read some old mathematical proofs made using geometry rather than algebra and they just seemed way more convoluted than their algebraic counterparts. I found myself agreeing to a lot of this video but feeling there was a missing caveat that it was not about math in general but more about the first few steps for children.

I never understood what really -5 is just looking at the numerical real nrs axis & knowing that nr are infinite... so I couldn't really do calculations on my own just if I learnt by heart some rules... when adding, when extracting, when multiplying and when dividing... ik + with + equals - & - with + is... am.. don't remember, or didn't really know

In other words 'play based learning', which sounds good in theory, but requires sharp teachers to make it work. It is not uncommon for 'play based learning' to be a big play time with no further extension, under teachers who are not motivated.

Math "works" because we have an ordered universe. But that opens a "Pandora's Box" that most people would rather not gaze into. So for nearly all of us, math remains an abstraction.
