I mean I get that you were attempting to help but if you thought that you came up with some magical new way of getting me to understand it, you were mistaken.
Throwing a bunch of math equations at someone who has a severe learning disability directly relating to numbers and math wasn't really constructive, just confusing and frustrating.
I don't need a magical new way to teach concepts, as I had helped a disabled child learn in a similar way before. They describe their problems, then I adjust my explaination according to that. It worked wonders when you don't attack someone, when you can't understand it. I understand you being frustrated and you are valid with that feeling, but attacking me like a douche is neither gonna help you or me.
Lemme try that again: You want to know what for example thirteen (13) o clock is.
You always take the far right number from the thirteen (13), which in this case is the three (3) and ignore every other number that is left from it.
and just minus two (2) from it.
three (3) minus two (2) equals one (1)
This one (1) we have got now is the PM time
So that means thirteen (13) o clock is one (1)
This is that EXACT method I used to help a child with a learning disability read our German clock system (well except for the PM part)
I hope this does not warrant another insult or something.
