Welcoming note

I have decided to create a blog for the upcoming chapter notes and presentation notes.

Please feel free to drop any comments here if you are too shy to do so in the classroom.

Any enquiries or problems related about any topics which I have taught you before and you still do not understand are welcome, also my teaching strategies, any improvement which you want me to make for your own benefits are also welcome or any criticism, whether I am going too slow, or too fast or is it boring you, please let me know.

Let us all learn together. No matter how small the deed is, it really does makes a difference.

Cheers
