Solving the Rubik's Cube is a lot of fun but if you had no idea how to do, it could be like a pain in the butt. The only way you could think of to solve your Rubik's cube is when you dismantle it and rearranged it back! It's funny isn't it ?But well, that could be a solution, at least, but not legit. I really wanted to learn the Rubik's cube back then because there's a Mathematics Festival in the public schools where solving the Rubik's cube is one the contests. In my eagerness to learn it, I went to Youtube and watched a couple of video tutorials but it was too fast for me to follow. What's the sense of a tutorial video when you don't target for the learning output of your audience? It was when I happened to talk to my sister who was having an internship from PNU that my thirst to learn the Rubik's cube was answered. She said it was her spring board in one of her Math classes and that she knows how to do it really well. And I said to myself, well, I've watched a couple of tutorials from people who knows how to solve the Rubik's cube really fast with all their Algorithm techniques, but what I wanted is to have someone who could teach me in a an easy way approach, and someone who could see my weakness in learning the cube and not just to showcase to me that she/he is good at it. So here's my video tutorials on how to learn the Rubik's cube the easiest way. It was proven effective since I have taught more than a hundred Rubik's cube fanatic kids ranging from 8-14 years old using my approach.
1. First and foremost, I had to give a little lecture about the Rubik's cube and then I will demonstrate to them how I solve it. It's my way of directing them mentally and attitude wise towards this new learning goal.
2. Learning the first layer is the most challenging part because this is the first time to ever try to solve the Rubik's cube with logic by applying simple algorithm. It is very crucial to set the positive learning attitude of the kids before they hold the Rubik's cube.
3. Learning the second layer could be very exciting because the pattern is easy to memorize. It might be overwhelming for the kids with this new learning experience but kids had to practice this layer a couple of times before proceeding to the next and final layer.
3. The third layer is the most challenging part because there are 2 preliminary steps that kids need to solve before applying the pattern of True and False. But, it should be very easy like setting up a table for a very nice dinner.
Well, I hope you had a great time learning the Rubik's cube with my video tutorials. The next thing you need to do after knowing all the patterns and algorithms is to practice regularly because its only when you practice that makes your finger movements faster like a reflex. You can set up a time to beat your last record and who knows you could be one of the fastest Rubik's cube solver in the world. Explore more and find some techniques!
