What is something that was explained to you wrong such that you could never understand it, and you received a clarifying explanation that finally made sense? (lemmy.world)

The number of math epiphanies I've had on youtube is way too high. Good math teachers are a rare breed.

For sure! The same can probably be said for science teachers too.

Sometimes a specific explanation works for you, but school has to be generic enough for explanation to work for most. There are probably a million videos with explanations that are utter shit.

There are, unfortunately, also millions of teachers who are utter shit. I appreciate every single one of the good ones I've met along the way.
