C&M gave me the real feeling that I was actually doing something, not just plugging and chugging away.
Before I came to college I loved math. It had always been my favorite class all through school. When I graduated high school I even got the math award.. When I got to [college] my love of math quickly died. . . I no longer understood math or calculus for that matter. Then I switched majors and I had to continuing taking more Math. Last semester I was also in traditional Calc II and was getting a D- before I dropped it. Someone suggested I take C&M CalcII. I figured it couldn't be any worse than last semester so I signed up for it. I'm glad I did. I wouldn't say that I love math now, but I am being to like it again. This class not only helped teach mathematics but it explained mathematics. The normal classes don't do this.
