I remember being pretty drained from squeezing out all my energy to help my friend understand the material.

...numbers, variables, and symbols, and had the desire to find out more on my own. But it did not come easily. I had to work for hours every evening, rewrite my notes, copy proofs in the text, find other texts with different presentations of the material, and watch dozens of YouTube videos showing example problems. When I am tutoring, I often hear from students, "Oh, well you're a natural! You just 'get' all this math...
