I gave example in a real life situation for them to understand not just the mathematical operation but also the purpose of the lessons for their life today and in the future. The challenge made me believed that students can learn but in many different ways individually and in many different approaches by the teacher. I believed that education starts at home and should be added and refined by the teachings inside the classrooms in the schools.
My degree in Civil Engineering pushed me hard to study math. I am not an excellent student in high school but an average student in all subjects. M ... read more
