Math Interesting

Welcome to free math tutoring online,
We get this question all the time, and here are a few of the answers
that I've given in the past. I'm sorry if they seem long, but it's an
important question, and I've put a lot of thought into the answers. I
hope you can get something out of at least one of them.


1) Here is one of my favorite stories (from _The Little, Brown Book of
Anecdotes_):

At Columbia University, the young professor Raymond Weaver gave his
first class in English literature their first quiz. more examples on math tutoring;
The young men,
who had been trying to make things hard for the new instructor,
whistled with joy when Weaver wrote: "Which of the books read so
far has interested you least?" They were silent, however, when he
wrote the second, and last, question: "To what defect in yourself
do you attribute this lack of interest?"

Math _is_ interesting, and once you've figured out that it's
interesting, it's the easiest thing in the world, and more fun than
baseball or video games or going to the movies. more on free math.
