Learn Math
This is my website on Mathematics.
It is in the initial stage of its inception and will continue to evolve. I have resigned from my teaching job and have procrastinated the idea of creating this website, knowing that it will take a great deal of my time and effort. So, instead of continuing to procrastinate, I will begin with taking baby steps and make changes to this website as I go along.
My intention is to share my experience on teaching and learning Mathematics. In the long term, it will probably evolve into an online platform for teaching Mathematics.
More than 10 years ago, I created a blog for my Mathematics Department in the junior college that I was teaching in. Eventually, the domain name expired and the blog became defunct. During then, I have written quite a number of blog articles. For a start, I will begin by editing and posting some of these articles that I have written in that blog.
I will mainly be covering issues on the following:
- how to learn Mathematics
- study and teaching skills
- conceptual errors I have encountered during my teachings
- mathematical skills and techniques
As this website is in its early stage of evolvement, I will reorganise my content from time to time as the website evolve.

Learning Math is Progressive
Are you struggling with learning your Mathematics? Perhaps you are struggling with a new concept and you do not even know how to solve a simple, basic problem in that new topic taught to you. Like anything else, learning math is progressive.
How To Improve On Your Mathematics Grades
This is a two-step process to achieve perfect score in your math exams a peer shared with me. He was the highest achiever for Math in my cohort back during varsity days. He is now a professor in the university.
Binomial Theorem: Approximating A Root With An Appropriate Substitution
More often than not there is more than one substitution into a binomial series to approximate the root of an integer. Since the answer is only an approximation by using the first few terms of a series, the value we obtained will be different if we use a different substitution. How do you find an appropriate substitution systematically to approximate the root?
