Geniuses who failed math

Horner eventually began writing, quote, to every museum in the English speaking world, asking if they had any jobs open for anyone ranging from a technician to a director. End quote. Well, the reason behind his educational struggle became clear in 1979, when Horner was diagnosed with a Dyslexia. Quote, to this day, I struggle with the side effects. Self paced learning is a strategy that helped me to cope. Audiobooks are also very helpful with technology

I read this in the biography about him by Walter Isaacson and he said, when asked why he didn't know his own home address was that he never memorized anything that could look up, which is not a bad thing to do, but especially in today's world with the Internet. And I would say that for myself, I never try to do the math without a calculator, which, in my own way, I think makes me a genius as well. I'm just kidding

Just want to share my story on math. I just test detest. I do not like math. I hate math. It was always my worst subject. I always failed from trigonometry, geometry what is that? Do we really need that? I don't even know. But the story I wanted to share is that a couple years ago, I decided to go back to school. I was doing online classes. Everything was online, and I did have to take math. And guess what?

You. As I said, I was horrible in math. I was really, really lucky and blessed because my oldest son was excellent in math. So when my second son was born and they were going through school, the oldest one was able to teach the second one how to do math, and he did really well, the second one did. Then my daughter was born, and when she needed to do math, my second son was able to tell her
