I've been lucky enough to have some good maths teachers and lecturers, as well as a very intelligent and patient dad, who have developed my love of maths. They took the time to explain the parts I just couldn't get my head around. Sometimes they were difficult concepts, and other times my brain just couldn't be bothered thinking for itself and it needed a gentle nudge/sledgehammer to steer it in the right direction.
But I don't believe that maths is generally well taught and so I thought I might try to help bridge the learning gap. The goal of this blog is to help answer any maths questions out there, with a particular focus on leaving cert maths.
So if you have any questions just leave a comment or send me an email: alan.l.smyth@gmail.com
And yes, there will be a lot of bad maths puns.
