Learning advanced mathmatics for senior citizens?

Nevertheless, I appluad you on wanting to start again.
Someone mentioned taking community college classes, and that is a fine idea.
Are you considering self-study as well? Some people prefer self-study with a good book. If so, the best math books that are full of problems and don’t dwell too much on theory, are from Schaums. Here is a link to some of them.
Good luck – don’t get discouraged. And if you get stuck on a problem – ask fr help in Yahoo Answers!
Community college is a good option because it’s a welcoming environment for older students with less pressure. Instructors there devote all their time to teaching classes and many community colleges have math labs set up too, so you can go in there to ask for additional help from tutors. I’d highly advise it.
With that being said, you have to understand that people understand math all of the time and you have to know that you can understand it in the same sense that they do. You have to be familiar with it and be able to communicate within the language of it. Then you have to compare what you would be like knowing math, and what you are now and figure out how to get from A to B.
I’d suggest using online tutorials to do so, there are 8 billion explanations of everything and becoming familiar with math will help loads.
