As the creator of the Awesome Math resource [1], I'm looking to gather and organize math resources specifically for those who fit this description. If that's you, what are your main challenges? Why does math feel difficult? Do you struggle with math notation, similar to how adult musicians without formal training can find modern music notation difficult? What stops you from picking up a math textbook and working through it? Have you ever tried that? What alternatives to traditional textbooks would work better for you?

If you had to go back to the basics, what level would you start from? High school? Middle school? Elementary school? For example, are you comfortable with elementary algebra [2]—solving linear and quadratic equations, simplifying algebraic expressions with fractions and powers, etc.? If not, is this something you feel you need to master before moving on to more advanced math topics?

If you could have a kind of survival guide before progressing to more advanced resources, what would you want included? What would be unnecessary? What topics would you want clearly explained? Which areas of math would you like covered—linear algebra, calculus, geometry, arithmetic, probability theory, combinatorics, something else? Do you know of any such guides? If you've tried them, what did you like about them, and what could be improved?

Feel free to respond here, but if you'd like to stay in touch as I continue developing this long-term project, please also send me an email (see profile) and let me know what you're interested in. I may reach out again later as I make progress.
