when in school I was told I should go for science, but I was hopeless at chemistry. Glad I did not go that way. Strange enough, in my early 40s I worked at a lab that used polymers and to my surprise, when I read that, I could grasp it. LOL. the easy stuff probably being too easy??? Yes we all think differently. I used to be good at lang…

Yes we all think differently. I used to be good at languages and math, but now both are down the drain and I am glad I can more or less add up my expenses!
Yes, a lot of so-called teachers are TERRIBLE at teaching. Sometimes it’s not their fault, they are basically a warm body temporarily (hopefully) filling a vacancy. I gave up on algebra when I first had it- because our vice-principal was “teaching” it. He didn’t explain anything and I had no one else to ask for help. But in high school I was blessed with an excellent teacher. My glitch was that I wanted to understand. People would say “Do this and then do that,” and I wanted to know “why?” first.
thankfully I was blessed with 2 excellent math teachers, otherwise it would have been disastrous! For physics and chemistry we had the terrible teacher you remember all too well - they both went on with the half of the class who understood, and the rest just went along for the ride!
