The most effective way for me to learn math is by teaching it to others. Since junior high school, I've been offering math tutoring to my friends and juniors. Initially, my goal was simply to help those struggling to understand the material and to supplement my pocket money. But slowly, I realized that by tutoring, I deepened my understanding of the topics I taught. Furthermore, tutoring juniors helped me remember and reinforce basic math concepts.
My friends often asked me how I consistently got good, even perfect grades in math. I then explained my two-way learning method, which differed from most of my peers which relies on teacher-centered learning. Eventually, many of my friends followed this method, trying to tutor others and even volunteering, exploring their favorite subjects in the same way.
I believe that knowledge can grow and last if we share it, not just for ourselves. It not only strengthened my own understanding but also encouraged my friends to share and learn together.
