My Experience in Math

From learning about Algebra equations in the 8th grade, to teaching those same equations now, working with math has always been something that I am accustomed to doing. I have always seen mathematics as more than just crunching numbers; it is a language, a world unto itself, yet a world linked with the everyday world that we know. This language is applied in the realm of computer design and operation, supply-chain management, statistical analysis, to name but a few fields. Having seen first-hand all of these applications, I have gained a real appreciation to those who devote themselves to it, and I can see what certain applications a particular math problem might have in the real world, for example.
