My thing was the teachers that taught the class were SO BAD at explaining the HOW and the WHY things went from A to B and they went so fast that it was impossible to follow. Why did those numbers do that? How did you perform that operation? You didn't get those answers, they just went on to the next problem and assumed you were reading their minds. That's the thing that bugs me about it.
That was an issue with me too. They went through and it's like they'd show the problem. Tell us it that this equation means you put this number here and by doing that you take this number and it means you move his number here here and here, do this and then PEMDAS as usual. It's so confusing and makes almost no sense. Those invisible numbers are the worst
