I hated all my math teachers and because they did not explain and made class boring. I try to always explain the why/how and engage my classes

I want my students to identify with math and critical thinking skills. Seeing a bigger picture instead of whats right there in front of them. Create a delayed gratification.

3s--  I can do this and this is not as hard as it looks...   understanding that how I feel about a subject now is a totally different question than how I feel about it an hour from now...    there is a difference between not understanding something and just needing one thing to quit...

The joy I feel when I get the tasks right. the teacher's complimenting me for doing a good job and showing my understand. when I consistently figure out the solution  to tasks, I feel confident approaching more difficult tasks and have found out that I have been successful in math.

It is possible to create interest by showing tips and tricks or showing students that there are actually different ways of solving the same problem. Out of the different ways, they are likely to come across one that is easy for them to remember.

I had a teacher for pre-cal that would copy the page from the book and place it on the overhead to talk about the particular example she was showing.  She also would add things to it with her vis-a- vis :)  To this day, I do not like to write examples or work with a lot of other "business" on the page. Or even go over things that are already written out....

I try to create an atmosphere where all questions are ok.  You you have a hesitation about something ask so you can move forward.  I also do not embarrass students for their questions because I had a Calculus teacher in HS that would do that so you never wanted to raise your hand.

I was not the smartest Math Student. I had to work really hard. In college Calculus, I studied by working on every problem in the book that I had an answer for. I had a big whiteboard. If I got a problem wrong I would erase it and do it again. This affects me now because I tend to have high expectations for students in terms of intrinsic motivation.  I am still waiting for students to live up to what I expect of them.

Most of my teachers were very boring/lacked personality. I only enjoyed math because it was my favorite subject. I want to be the teacher who is unforgettable not only for being a great educator but also a great person.

The math subject that I struggled with most in high school and college was Geometry. I could do the work and earn good grades but I could not connect the "why". Those connections came to me as I taught Geometry through the years. I would get so excited and the kids would think I was nuts. That struggle helped me look for common misconceptions that students may have and use that to adjust my teaching. I also could relate to the struggle.

Making mistakes is a part of the learning process. In math there will be lots of mistakes and even more opportunites to correct mistakes - just like life.

Math History: Generally speaking, I like things to do with precision to a large extent. I like following logical thought processes based on deductive reasonings. I was just lucky to have had teachers that provide logical approach and aptitudes in teaching math in those days. I just like math in short. There shouldn't be any problem explaining the process and mechanics of mathematics.
