I had to really work at Math to keep my grades up.
I had a lot of extra tutoring at night, because my Dad was a teacher. He always made me prove my work and never gave me the answer. He was tough but fair.

3/10, but, I don’t like this episode because of everyone’s attitude, including Andy’s, which sucks. It reminds me of my own childhood, in which I was horrible at math, because I didn’t understand it, and yet got punished for it. Years later, it came to light that I am mildly dyslexic, with numbers being worse than letters and words. I guess I wasn’t as stupid or lazy as I was made to believe. Sorry about the venting. I just hate this episode.
I had trouble with math in grade school because of the way they taught it. We had to memorize multiplication tables and do flash cards for addition and subtraction. I would know 7x3 since I learned the 3’s table but didn’t know 3x7 until we got to the 7’s table. We had quizzes where we were timed, rather than being taught to understand the relation between numbers. Didn’t know that multiplication was a series of additions.
I’m 64 years old and the exact same thing happened to me when I was a kid. It’s still fresh in my mind

Oh my gosh, yes! I remember in first grade we were given a paper with like 20 subtraction problems that we had a time limit to do. I was in such a hurry to get done what I didn’t know how to do, that I wrote anything down, as I didn’t understand how to subtract, not to mention the fact that I felt the numbers were jumbled. I guess it was a flash card memorization test. Anyway, my mom found the paper, which was almost all wrong answers, and I was worn out for it. Fast forward 40+ years later, and I told her how that stuck with me, and I had made a pact to myself that I would NEVER punish my children for bad grades; When my kids were in school, I sat them down and helped them to understand the problem, not punish them for it. She apologized and said “I didn’t know”. I said “because you never asked”. Nothing like old school parenting 🙄
The Luck of Newton Monroe, this episode and Banjo Playing Deputy are my least favorite episodes in B&W
4/10
Not good at arithmetic either, nor Andy Griffith Show quizzes, apparently.

10/10. Not so funny of an episode given the story line. But I think there is some truth to this episode though. You can push a person too hard and they end up doing worse.
