Yes, you CAN be a “math person” — as long as you follow these learning techniques. • ❍ Subscribe to The Well on YouTube: https://bit.ly/welcometothewell • ❍ Up next: Un-sabotage yourself with intrinsic motivation • Un-sabotage yourself with intrinsic m... • Po-Shen Loh is an International Mathematical Olympiad coach, and he challenges the notion that some people are inherently “not math people.” He believes that every one has the potential to understand mathematics, as long as they start with the desire to learn. • A unique aspect of mathematics is its reliance on a sequence of dependent concepts. Unlike subjects such as history, where concepts are broader and less interdependent, math involves a deeper chain of connected ideas. This makes the learning process fragile; missing a single concept can disrupt comprehension due to the interlinked nature of mathematical ideas. • Loh draws a comparison with a train journey: If there is a gap in the track (a missing concept), the train cannot proceed. He suggests a personalized learning approach, allowing individuals to learn at their own pace in order to fill gaps in understanding. With this approach, anyone can excel in math — and even find it easier than other subjects. • Read the full video transcript: https://bigthink.com/the-well/unlock-... • ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- • ❍ About The Well ❍ • Do we inhabit a multiverse?
