“My parents wanted me to become a doctor, but I didn't get into the program.”

“Without an education, you can't get anywhere in Egypt, and the competition for jobs is very high.”

“I remember the math classes there with horror and dread. The classroom was dark, and the teacher had a completely expressionless face and voice. I thought, am I going to sit here and do these math problems day in and day out?.”

“Getting a math assignment done is almost better than sex and orgasm.”

“Is it serious that children and young people cannot read and write, but it is okay that they cannot calculate and interpret the numbers around them when they appear in subjects and contexts other than mathematics class? It is not much to demand that teachers who will teach our children in the various subjects at school have basic skills in mathematics.”
