  • Even assuming your observation was universally true (which I doubt, I firmly believe people can irreversibly deteriorate) - there are circumstances that can prevent you from reaching people. To name the immediate two that come to mind:

    • lack of “alone” time that they will spend with you due to family / spouses / jobs
    • you simply do not find the key (again, assuming it exists) to “peel back” their layer of anger and frustration that clouds their objectivity
















  • I was probably on a different continent ^^ Also, the biggest problem explaining math is not making it understandable, but having a motivated learner. Most students that have a bad teacher in school, or are somehow not motivated in school to begin with, will also not be motivated to focus on easier explanations. Technically a basic interest in math should be fostered / encouraged in kids from an early age, and at the latest in elementary school. If that does not work out, many students will have a hard time with it.

    You are welcome.
