I'd also like to wish nutcracker and dux&src and happy birthday!

Seen it before, not many people want to be taught by someone their own age and younger people don't need to be taught what we are trying to teach.

I reckon:

If you come to an understanding of something yourself, you'll have a 100% chance of memorising it.

 

[Makdadddy]

No, try and teach it to your pet

Just like this one.

Just like this one.

That was the point of it

+ I really think that teaching other people really helps. A lot of kids in my maths classes always ask for my help since I've accelerated the courses before and I'm more than happy to help... however I will refuse to tutor them for money because I don't think I am qualified to do that.

Some kids struggle in my other courses, and I'll help them - I teach them the course material and it does strengthen what I already know. In saying that, I learn most of my stuff through reading over stuff, then writing it myself.

That's pretty true, since you have to have a fairly good understanding of the topic yourself before you can start helping others. Although some people can just absorb the information after reading/hearing it, which I am incredibly jealous of D<

also, uh, it's not nutcracker's birthday. just saying.

 

[nonsenseTM]

how is it important ?

and what does "Earth provides enough to satisfy every man's need, but not every man's greed"
mean?

If you try and teach somebody, you'll have a 90% chance of memorising what you say.

surprisingly, this is very true[not the percentage].. it also helps when you're trying to memorise to speak out loud/or in your head.. talk to yourself

for me anyway!

If you try and teach somebody, you'll have a 90% chance of memorising what you say.

No, you already need to know it to teach someone else. You already know it because you read, highlighted, and summarised it beforehand.

A whole bunch of 'ummahhhumm-ing' while trying to teach someone won't make you any smarter. Self-fulfilling prophecy ftl.

who wants to learn rocket maths, i ll teach you, then i ll understand 90% of it without ever knowing it! win

 

[darkcounty]

Barely anyone asks me to teach them anything and if they do, they cut me off when I'm explaining the good bit :mad1:

So true, this is the same kid who 'knows' he'll get 99.95, right?

If you try and read something, you'll have a 10% chance of memorising what you read.

I really don't like those chances, but I also really don't believe in those chances.

From what I've experienced, if somone teaches me something I usually don't remember it (Perhaps bad teachers? Idk). If I read and understand everything, and write what I know; I remember almost everything.

Though this is completely the opposite for english . English is soo different for some reason.

Group tutor. Study in groups and share what you understand. Everyone will have something to consttribute - some more than others, but that is OK.

I tutored most of the second maths class through to the HSC and ###years later, was thanked by one of them, stating that if it weren't for me, she would have failed. To have that effect on someone's HSC is an AMAZING feeling.

It may be a competitive world, but, in the end, we all have to work together to make this place better, so start at school.

If everyone gets better marks, it brings up your school's scaling.

She's referring to the OP who posted a thread about being confident in attaining 99.95.
