23 years later, in 2022, I found the teacher (who had relocated from Offa to Osogbo) and went to greet him in Osogbo.

I also presented a copy of my memoir (I mentioned my math story in the book) to him.

Since then, we've been in touch. One of his children is my follower.

Man saved me from math!

[Sir J (J9) @SirJarus]

I was so poor in Mathematics that I was nicknamed "I don't know Math (sic)" in Class 6 because I gave that as answer to my teacher when he asked me a question in class.

JSS 1-3, same story.

I think I had P7 in it in Junior WAEC.

SS 1-2, similar story.

Then in January 1999, second term into SS2, with GCE staring me in the face, I attended a private lesson. The teacher taught me Factorization and I realized I got it. His explanation was spot on.

For the first time in my life, I understood a math topic clearly.

Then I went back to JSS 1 math texbook for personal study and finished it within a week. Then moved to JSS 2 and finished it within 2 weeks. Then JSS 3 math, then SS1, then SS2.

Then to GCE past questions.

I sat for GCE in August 1999 or so during holiday after SSS2 and made a B2.

Then WAEC in SSS3 in May 2000 and got B2 again (felt bad for this because I wanted A1).

Meanwhile, I saw that many of my school mates in Science classes (who did Further Math) did not even have B2 that I had in Math in WAEC and that prompted me to enrol for another private lesson in Further Math. "If I could score higher in Math than many science students that did Further math, I should be able to do Further math too".

I practiced a couple of topics in Further Math - Calculus, Partial Fraction etc - while waiting for OAU to resume, knowing I would need Mathematics to do well in Economics that I got admission for.

Math soon became my favourite subject. Needless to say I had A in all but one of the Math courses I did from Year 1 to graduation in Ife.

From being poor in Math to it becoming my best subject, it was a comeback I never saw coming. A turnaround that contributed largely to who I am today (my eventual grade in Economics helped largely by my scores in Math courses).

In 2022, 23 years after, I searched for and reconnected with the private teacher that saved me in SS 2 in 1999.

If you are broke as a man, it’s not only women that will treat you bad with utter disrespect, even your friends, family and enemies will treat you one kind. It’s only you and God.

A father in Iran built a simple tactile football field so his 9-year-old blind son, Alireza, can experience World Cup matches through touch. A beautiful example of love, creativity, and inclusion. ⚽❤️
