    1) The student initially disliked mathematics as a child but has come to appreciate it more through college courses and great teachers who helped them understand. 2) Some key things the student has learned include that mathematics is everywhere in nature and daily life, it involves patterns, the Fibonacci sequence, the golden ratio, and how mathematics can serve as a universal language. 3) While mathematics can be difficult, the student has realized its importance and has learned not to give up when facing challenges, instead asking for help to improve their understanding over time.

    My MMW Journey so far

    Mathematics relies on both logic and creativity, and it seeks both for different
    mathematics that relies on beauty and intellectual challenge. Mathematics is the one of those we
    use in our daily lives and daily activities. According to Berner 2018, Mathematics enriches our
    lives and prevents chaos. Some of the characteristics that retain mathematics are the power of
    reasoning, creativity, abstract or spatial thinking, critical thinking, problem solving skills and
    even effective communication skills.
    First of all, I learn something that I’ve never expected in my life. Since I was a kid back
    then, I really don’t like mathematics. The reason why I don’t like math it is because I don't find it
    entertaining and confusing. I am sometimes a slow learner when it comes to math and I get a lot
    of problems that cannot solve and sometimes solutions are confusing. But that’s all from the past
    now. Every year passes until I reach college, I slowly understand math. It is because of the great
    teachers that teach me and help me to understand and like math more. Till now, I didn’t give up
    in understanding and learning math.
    I learn about that mathematics is the study of measurement, properties, equation and
    patterns using number and symbols. When my teacher once said that mathematics can be seen in
    nature and when he gave an example it amazed me and make me think that mathematics is
    everywhere. Everywhere we go and whatever we do. One of my favorite that we tackled is about
    the patterns and its types which is the regular, repeated, or recurring forms or design that can be
    find mostly in nature. Another topic that I learn is about the Fibonacci Sequence. It is a series of
    number in which each number Fibonacci number is the sum of the two preceding numbers,
    example 0,1,1,2,3,5.8,13, etc. Fibonacci sequence is also enjoyable and it is also an infinite
    group of numbers. Our teacher said that the word Fibonacci is came from Mr. Leonardo of Pisa
    who has known by his nickname Fibonacci. It is very satisfying that all the names that comes
    from mathematics has a deep meaning and it has a history where the name taken.
    Just like the golden ratio that is connected to the Fibonacci sequence. In golden ratio we
    can see a pattern and for me it is also satisfying. I learned that the golden ratio’s symbol is “Phi”
    and its different terms are the Golden Section, Golden Mean and Divine Proportion. One thing is
    I learned that photographers, artist, surgeon and etc. are using Golden Ratio to have a catchy and
    perfect image. Next lesson that we discussed and amaze me is that mathematics can be used as a
    universal language. First that comes to my mind when my teacher tells about it is “how can a
    math be a universal language?”. But when the lecture goes on even though it is online class, I
    still understand why, it is because according to Galileo Galilei, “The laws of nature are written in
    the language of Mathematics”. Another is “Mathematics is a human language because it allows
    to communicate people” said Dr. Randy Palisoc. Who would’ve thought that people uses math to
    communicate? Well, scientist, mathematicians, artist, and other professionals that uses math as a
    language. Even us we use math in everything we do without realizing.
    In conclusion, all the lessons that I’ve learned and will learn is very important. I do
    realize that math is the big help in our lives. Although math is sometimes hard to understand, I
    knew I had to get it done, whether it was by asking for help or trying to get it done. I know that
    our teachers are ready to help us to understand it. I now know that I am somebody who always
    tries and won’t give up. I am not afraid to ask for help if I need it. Math might not be my best
    subject, but I have proved that I can get through it.
