“Really math becomes easy when
the teacher explains well and I follow it up at home,” exclaimed passionately
an engineering student.
Competent teacher, conducting a
review of the extensive notes after the class, and practice by reworking the
steps, are all needed to understand math. Math professor must discuss math in
an eloquent and conversationalist way and demonstrates an ability to challenge
the students. Likely students, on their part, must review the explanatory notes
after the class to positively enhance memory retention. Then, actual rework or
practice on what was carefully discussed and solved efficiently in the
classroom must be given with considerable time. And complex math instantly
becomes an easy prey!

A Math Professor |
Any prominent professor must know
very well the intricacies and remarkable beauty of the numbers hidden in
complex math; he can explain lucidly the subject matter in a understandable way
and invite the students who are concerned of numbers to seek and interact
during the classroom discussion. The classroom typically becomes a learning
place where students frequently refer to as their second home. This is the
place where they can voice out and willingly share their own opinion with
others; and naturally learn from their classmates by politely asking. A
competent teacher is like an environmental designer; keep classroom atmosphere
conducive to sufficiently learning. He properly establishes redlines; build up
student’s necessary confidence. A competent professor works on this way!
Conducting a review on the
specific topics discusses in the classroom scientifically proves to retain
further one’s memory. The study convincingly showed that the first in a two-hour
lecture is the most effective period for memory retention. Faced with this
dilemma, a comprehensive review after the class is dearly needed to recover
essential part of the time where memory retention was least. Referring to the
notes for a few minutes after classroom enhance more considerably your memory.
Any lapses and misunderstood notes can be easily corrected by recalling your
memory. Hence, a review is a must!

Ultimately, students must rework
the complex problems and its solution steps. Although simple as it is, this is
the most significant part of learning math. The practice enables students to
comprehend the whys, how, and when these steps are done. It remains their mind
working; challenging ideas at will and keeps them on the state of accurately
analyzing and recognizing patterns. Math is like a game of chess; sometimes pondering
the board to find the best moves over your fierce opponents; the clearer the
picture over the specific situation, the better your possible moves and win the
games. Reworking the classroom’s lectures naturally makes understanding
perfect!
It is not that math is difficult
because it is math and students could not get along with numbers. But with
competent teachers, coupled with numerous patience to open your notes after the
class and constant practice, learning math becomes easy and enjoyable. Students
and math subsequently become the distinct best of friends.
