January seems to be the time when I embark on all kinds of self-improvement schemes. Despite the timing, they don’t really have anything to do with New Year’s resolutions, per se. Instead, I think these plans come about because I’m trapped in my house for most of the winter and have time to dwell on my shortcomings.
Anyway, my latest effort at self-improvement involves taking math classes! I have forgotten all about Algebra, and was never any good at geometry or trigonometry. I might have taken a pre-calculus course in college and a statistics class or two, but there again, I remember nothing. I want to start with Algebra and work my way through several courses just so I understand what’s going on.
So now I’m looking at Online Colleges that offer these classes at reasonable prices. I just need to “audit” the classes or take them on a pass/fail basis. I don’t want to deal with actually enrolling in a school and getting grades or whatever, so we’ll see how that goes.
I’m obviously too late to start the winter semester, but maybe spring or summer would work!
