I did great in arithmatic but once I moved into algebra, geometry, etc., I hated math..... and it was because of the teachers - all coaches, all resented teaching classes and had no patience with anyone who wasn't a 'natural' at the subject

My former deceased wife Joyce was a math specialist teacher.

If a teacher acts as though you should already understand, they cannot teach that subject. A terrible class to endure.

I had a mix of teachers too and math was/is not my strong suit either..:)

The best usually do rise to the top...

Can algebra be taught? Bill's Calmwood's ready but the Roost will be delayed in presenting the final post until later today. Internet problems are being experienced. However, I want to thank you for your thoughtful comment. You're great kid. Bill

I had both good teachers and bad.  The worst teacher I ever had was high school American History teacher.  I did not learn one single thing from him.  Everything I learned about American History was from reading on my own.  One of the best teachers I had was World History.  She made me want to learn about American History.
