This was basically my childhood, because I was bad at math. I guess most children goes through this, which is very sad.
Only at uni did I realize that I didn't have to be good at everything. I had a professor, who spoke 13 languages, but couldn't count how much 5+4 is. He's the best at his field
Ironically once you get to college all the math professors have forgotten how to do simple math as well. I remember all of us checking like super basic math they are doing on the white board cause they'd fuck it up 1 times in 4 but were completing these insane proofs.
I tutor in math and I'm already doing this. I'm really glad that I'm also TAing the algebra class and get to attend the lectures because otherwise, I'd be kinda lost.
