Disagree. Sometimes you need the right person to explain it to you.

Disagree with the statement.  Agree with Gator and Dragonfly.  :)

Ya know, one of the coolest things about teaching is the look in a child's eyes when he/she gets it.  Yes.  They most certainly can make tremendous strides, and it feels good.

Keep up the good work, those kids are the worlds future. I also answered your question about the new cat we had at the shelter.

Daisy is a great name. That's really sweet.
Our newest feral is named Ringo. He drums on the door to come in. The guy has rhythm!! He almost trusts us enough for us to betray that trust and send him for neutering. ;)

I'm a kept woman now. I stopped teaching a few years ago. I miss the kids, but I love being home.

Disagree

I have tutored math from kids to adults. 

It's amazing how their confusion can rest on a simple concept that they somehow missed or simply never understood.

Then it's like putting a charged battery in a Rolls Royce---everything works like it was designed to.

Disagree.  I used to be okay in Maths (I've failed a few tests), but I started working on it more, and I love it!  I'm now studying Maths at a very high level.

Disagree. I had a terrible maths teacher, I understood maths far more when I left school and had to apply it to everyday life. I suddenly thought why didn't they just teach us this way before, rather than out of a textbook?

In higher level math, you'd realize that being good at math isn't something you're born with. Math is one of those things where the only way to get better is to struggle and putting in the most effort everyday. I remember upper division college math courses where people ate, slept, and cried in lecture hall while studying. You can say those classmates are really well off now.

Work hard where it matters.

Math matters.
