No. Books can't understand how you think and learn and help guide you. There is no substitute for a good teacher. Is there a best book for that student? Probably, but who is that student? We don't know!
Beyond just learning mathematics, seeing the art and beauty in it is also best taught by someone who knows the subject and the student. Without the beauty, it's just what could be in a textbook, assuming you found the right book.
If you're asking if you can find a good book to teach someone, that depends on your style and theirs . . .
We will almost certainly have good student-focused AI teachers during our lifetimes for things like math and languages. Will AI be able to show us the art? I can't say for sure, but I bet so . . .
- concordDance 4y ago> There is no substitute for a good teacher. Note that this does not mean one cannot fully learn a subject from books or that the average teacher is better than books or that a good teacher dealing with 30 other kids will be better than a good book.
- graphpapa 4y agoOf course you’re not guaranteed a good teacher by studying the conventional way. Studying from books is a great skill to develop regardless.
