I've done a couple of math (calculus I) help phone sessions with my co-worker now. He has been surprised that they have turned out so well: he felt that we both communicated very well, and that I was able to effectively explain the details of the quiz problems that he had incorrectly answered.
With that said, tonight's session, which focused on u substitutions, made me appreciate the world of rich, stimulating ideas that calculus opens up. In particular, IMO, regarding u subs, being able to take an integral of a difficult function and transform it (via u substitution) into an integral of an elementary function that can be easily integrated, is just awesome and fascinating.
A world of rich, stimulating ideas...awesome and fascinating. Calculus.
Yeah well, I think my brain might be a little different to yours. :-)
