My mathematical past: in-class exercise on Sept.20
(1) Something(s) that really reached me as a math learner at any age
(2) Frustrations with math learning
(3) A math "teacher" you want to emulate - a role model
(4) A math teacher whose ways you want to avoid
~------------------------------------------------------------------~
(1) Well I'd have to say Math 12 was really the point in which I decided to pursue math (or maybe it was grade 11, but somewhere between those years anyways).
(2) Oh there are many. Many, many, many! I think the hardest for me was math proofs, which require a high level of thoroughness for sure! But that said, grade 11 was NO walk in the park for me, because that was where the curriculum introduced parabolas and the quadratic formula... which yes, does throw lots and lots of students off track :\
(3) My grade 12 math teacher at Lord Byng high school, hands down! Why? Because he was just so dynamic and had a passion that ultimately made me choose math :)
(4) Probably (no definitely) my grade 9 math teacher. She sort of just really didn't... know how to teach 14 to 15 year olds.

Again, this is somewhat vague. You haven't elaborated on WHAT reached you, what was difficult, etc.
