As someone who is VERY much used to going through the difficult and frustrating process of learning a mathematical concept for the first time, I know how great it feels to finally have something click. Although it’s not exactly the same, helping a student reach this understanding does give me a similar satisfaction. At the same time, as a physics major (who has a strong fancy for mathematics), I can’t help but want to try and dispel the notion that “math is hard.”
