Man, I love doing math. I’m making solution guides to every calculus assignment this year and it’s reminding me of how much I love it. I sometimes wish I had pursued it beyond my bachelors, but I’m not sure if I had the mathematical chops to cut it. Probably could’ve made through a masters program. But I doubt much beyond that. I actually looked into it a few years after I started teaching but there was no way to make it work while also maintaining a full time job. #math #grownostr #teaching

Zac, it’s never too late to start, if it’s your dream, go for it!

I’m psychologist and i’m to start my bachalor’s degree in agronomy now.

You could offer online math courses or tutoring. And its never too late to pursue your passion.

Do you like proofs?

I stopped at bachelor's cuz I like numbers but not proofs 😅

Real and complex analysis were killing me.

I love proofs! But, I never took complex analysis. So that might’ve been the end of the fun for me. lol

I did find calc-based prob and stats quite difficult. I would say that’s toughest math I bumped into.

I think linear algebra was the hardest for me besides the 2 analysises.

I don’t remember struggling with linear algebra too much (although I don’t think I aced it). I just remember really not enjoying it and thinking it was stupid and also thinking “here’s one more reason I don’t want to study computer science”.
