The Math Mojo "Manifesto" Almost everyone feels that they could be better at math than they already are. And they are right! Do you have a definition of math that makes sense to you? Probably not. Why not? Isn't it crazy that they spend so much time trying to teach you math in school, and they don't even help you understand what it is? We are usually taught math as a "subject" in school. Math is so much more than that! It is philosophy, art, entertainment, and more. We are usually taught that there is "one way" to get an answer. That is one of the worst things you can tell someone. First of all, it is not true! For instance, there are hundreds and hundreds of ways to multiply. And one of the worst ways is to torture yourself with the "tables" and rote memory. Second of all, even if there were "one best way" to get an answer, it would surely not be the one they teach you in school. Math Mojo uses lots of ways to do the operations of math that are much more inspiring than memorizing some boring stuff and taking senseless tests. Math Mojo is dedicated to making math about how you view your world, not how teachers view you. My priority is not teachers. My priority is your relationship to reality. Math can be a great tool for understanding the world. And the world is not math tests. The world is much cooler than that!   I am a Hunchback by Robert Louis Stevenson.    I am a hunchback, yellow faced,    A hateful sight to see,    'Tis all that other men can do    To pass and let me be.    I am a woman, my hair is white,    I was a darkhaired lass;    The gin dances in my head,    I stumble as I pass.    I am a man that God made at first,    And teachers tried to harm,    Here! hunchback take my friendly hand,    Good woman, take my arm.
