Yeah, I feel the same. Especially for Spesh, it all seems so logical rendering the classes useless. Honestly the way my teacher transcribes notes to the white board, out of the textbook, for us to copy down is demoralising... Even more so because we use MathsQuest..

I would prefer to just learn, without the bounds of class and syllabi. <-(plural form of syllabus)

I know, I actually enjoyed my summer holiday study.  Then came school, english, class and sacs.  all extremely demoralising.  i also am glad i don't have to use maths quest anymore.  the explanations may be a little off, but the questions in essentials are so much better.

i look through the methods maths quest book and cringe at how amateurish and outdated it is.  it is completely missing some components of the course.  i hope they've at least updated the 3rd edition!

For some reason I do less work during holidays and more work during school so without classes I'm screwed. Although I don't get much out of them, they seem to give me an idea where I should be up to date with.
