I can’t tell you how much this article speaks to me. I, like many others we’re crippled by the fact that I completely shut myself off from math from 6th grade on. Why 6th grade? Why was I in the honors math class to begin with? Why? Because I, like many others, was not born to hate math. I had one bad teacher who didn’t give a damn about teaching kids through barriers such as poor home support, and there is where I the link was broken. The image above that shows the where the disconnect lies in the foundation of mathematical development was where I shut down.

Fast forward to today. Although I am a financial professional, I still sometimes struggle in some of the most basic calculations; but, I am a financial professional because I am no longer afraid to tackle my fears and my weaknesses head on. I will overcome this and I will stop at nothing to make sure that future generations of young adults aren’t held back from realizing their full academic and professional potential because of the fear of math.

I LIKE YOUR DESCRIPTION OF YOUR TOUR. IT WAS A VIVID DESCRIPTION THAT PROVOKED IN ME A DESIRE TO GET A FEEL AND A TOUCH OF THOSE PLACES AND PEOPLE. MORE GREASE TO YOUR ELBOW. ONLY THAT I WAS LEFT TO WONDER HOW THE JOURNEY EVENTUALLY ENDED.
