The equations where you have to make it as small as possible.
I recently learnt that and I'm not doing the best.
Well, honestly i think it's the teacher...I have two, one that (like you) has a lot of passion in me being a good a mathematician
The other teacher's teaching technique in my opinion, is bad... He's foreign, and he just gives the equations and shows the step, but he doesn't explain well.
Talking of maths teachers, my math teacher told me I'm getting invited to this University for an award on June 3rd for winning this maths competition i was a few out of 40,000+ !
I haven't learnt a lot but i'll try.
