That's very well done, Scott!

Finding *really* good teachers who can get the point across in simple terms and actually *teach* are rather hard to find.

I was quite fortunate to have had a wonderful teacher for my basic math (I was home schooled, so I took college classes via a BOG waiver (I think?) from a local community college). She made it very simple!

The first time it was really excruciatingly hard was when I had to retake Algebra II after she retired. I took it online, and I feel like I hardly learned a thing. Trig was better, but I still didn't quite get it.

Precalculus had a rough start (mostly in that I got lost on campus and couldn't find the classroom), but once I got to know the teacher a bit it proceeded very nicely (and I actually felt like I learned something).

Then came Calc I. It was a sort of online-lecture hybrid class, where we attended class and had all the regular lecture class things to do but some of the homework was assigned online. If it weren't for the lackluster teacher, I think it would've been a good format.

Anyway, I think that's all I have to say for now.

I need to go to class tomorrow morning, so I think I'm going to bed now...
