    Well that would have helped me back in the 2000's when i was told i worked out maths problems differently to everyone else with this sort of method even though i got the same answers. One teacher had me show my working out for a bunch of problems to understand how i was doing it and it made me internally feel bad at maths because i did it 'wrong'.
