Praise for matHUMANtics

David Jackson, Founder/CEO of matHUMANtics

I hope you find something here that helps you to better understand mathematics. However, none of the pages I have listed here seem all that different than any other attempts to write math. For that, I must apologize. What's different about matHUMANtics? Well, it isn't what I write. The difference is an approach to teaching that is uncommon. I invite you to discuss mathematics with me. If you accept, then I will engage you in a conversation unlike any you have had before. Together, we will talk about the humanity of mathematics. We will discuss its history, the real motivations behind its history, and, most importantly, we will discover the knowledge you seek is already within your subconscious. We just need to tease it out with some Socratic method. By joining me in recreating and rediscovering mathematics, you will realize that you too are capable of creating and discovering new mathematics. This conversation cannot be presented on any webpage or in any book. How could it? We haven't had it yet! This is what matHUMANtics offers that is so hard to find: an approach to math that respects who you are and the way you think. And you won't find it anywhere in these pages. You must join me for a conversation. I will be here when you are ready.

Contrary to the title of this blog, I love mathematics. Yet I, too, quickly developed a hatred for what I was required to peddle in public school under the banner of mathematics. Through matHUMANtics, we can help rescue education from the clutches of the blind bureaucracy that is destroying the dreams of too many teachers and their pupils. Our consultants offer both formal courses and personalized video chats to help you deepen your understanding of mathematics without being subjected to fragile expertise or daunting pace of instruction. We need only 10% of the population to rise up against the rising tide of mediocrity in education. Let us be the first to spread the joy of the mathematical perspective. If you are a teacher, parent, or student desperately seeking an uncommon approach to learning and teaching mathematics, then matHUMANtics is for you!
