Learning philosophy and then logic and then computer programming taught me math. Or at least taught me how to understand math in a way I’d never been able to in all my many years of education. It makes me wonder how many kids are missing out because we’re focused on teaching math one specific way even though it’s quite clear the way we’re teaching it just doesn’t “click” for a lot of students.


Would you mind expanding on this? What philosophy did you learn? What logic? I'm interested in this approach to learning math.
