I do agree Professor Cromwell! One must be able to delay self gratification and must set certain boundaries! As a high school student myself, I've seen a lot of horrid scenes and events play out due to a lack of said qualities!
What I do in my class is far more rigorous. MIT level of rigor. I don’t use a book. BUT we actually PROVE all the rules you used. Everything. Sum, difference, product, EVERYTHiNG. Everything is justified. Every single rule.
I like that. We do that too at City Tutoring though, in our courses. All our courses are proof based, except tutoring since those are more based on what students wants to go over for their courses at their own schools.
Mathematics is highly social. Very highly social. And when we engage in mathematics there is one aim and one aim only- to determine what is true. And God is the source of all things good true and beautiful. So when we engage with math we are learning to see God who is the source of all the truths we are uncovering. Math people are very social.
Yes, we are! I agree. In fact, there was a little joke going around back in my college days from the local bar. They used to say their best student customers were "the Math people".
Greetings from Northern VA! Like diggin into the problems. Merry X-mas! Would you be interested in my math website (not to take away any of your glory of course)?
@citytutoring Just google "Mathknowsis". I am the youtube with the aurora borealis looking video. The links are in my description. They don't seem to want me to add a link.
What a wonderful find!

Thanks.
I love your passion for Math. Also, I would say Elon is obsessed with his goals, at expense of all other aspects in his life
Thank you! And yes, agreed re: Musk.
That's incredible! Mathematics is really unchanging truth, much unlike science.
Exactly! The logic of Mathematics is truly divine.
That was a famous calculus book here in Brazil, when I was in my last high school year.
Of course that was in 1990, not in 1890…

Differential and Integral Calculus, by Granville.

Merry X-mas! Sure, feel free to share anything Math related!
@@citytutoring I saw my comment was removed? Does everything have to be 100% math related in my blog?
@@davidbennett8126 No, not at all! I don't see it though....can you please resend? It might be that if you shared a link sometimes they flag it.

Do you believe in God? If so, do you believe Math has strengthened your faith?
Most certainly! If you have not done so, I recommend you read mathematician John C. Lennox's book called: "Christianity, Opium or Truth?"
