Dear All,
Following our last extra session today, I would like to reiterate my heartfelt gratitude for being such an amazing cohort of students!
As I mentioned in the last sessions, you have come a long way and I am really proud of your progress!
I would like to wish everyone best of luck in your exams!
Please let me add an extra short note:
There is no such thing as a silly question or a silly mistake. Remember in our first session (or even now) when I started talking about what maths means (passion for learning), what an error and mistake entails etc. We desperately need the errors, because we MAKE (not just do -replicate) science and (re)discover maths.
Each and every one of us in their very own and unique way.
Mistake means take in err…Err (error) means "be in motion, wander around or even go astray”.
It is like the roadmap…It is our story, our journey.
Embrace it, learn from this and keep trying…It is a form of art.
Little by little (it is not always easy but it has to be enjoyable!) you will excel in all of this!
Remember the learning curve – always slow at the start, but later on it takes off.
Have fun and always ask questions!
Hope you enjoyed the journey this semester and wish you all the very best in your future studies!
Have a nice evening and best of luck!
Best wishes,
Dimitris
