>>13091268>Jaime EscalanteYou can actually look up exactly how he taught he class
First, he worked in private with another teacher and then used this money to hire TAs
Second, you were not allowed to attend class if you didn't do the assigned work, and all students met with TAs after class to do the work since it was a shitty ghetto anyway and they had nothing else to do except get shot or robbed
Third, he taught from 1960s copies of Thomas' Calculus and Leithold, which are superior books to anything else
Finally he encouraged team-sports/competition style environment, doing olympiad style problems which he said motivated students to learn when it became a game or competition
So really all he did was institute a olympiad math circle for regular kids
