a: Learning ~
b: a jigsaw puzzle
What:
"Learning is like a jigsaw puzzle. You could approach the box of puzzle pieces and memorize the shape and colors of each one; a daunting task to be sure. Another approach is to sort the pieces as you come to them, then find how they fit together. Soon a picture emerges."

Learning PHP is like learning Spanish
a: Learning PHP ~
b: learning Spanish
What: "Learning PHP is like learning Spanish. Or English. Or some widely spoken language that will benefit you in more than just niche circles. PHP on the web is like white paint. It's everywhere. It might not be as pretty as Ruby or as puristic as Python, but as a developer it is worth having at least a working knowledge of PHP."

1 On Top Of The Other
a: Learning math ~
b: building a brick wall
What: "This is because learning math is like building a wall: one brick builds upon the previous one, and if a certain brick is missing, causing a hole in the wall, the whole wall starts crumbling. So I teach math by starting at the beginning, and making sure that the bottom bricks are all there before I build on them."

It's Just Like Riding......
a: Learning math ~
b: riding a bike
What: "Learning math is like learning to ride a bicycle. Without learning how to pedal, you cannot move forward; without learning how to steer, you can't change direction. This is because all functions are in some way connected to one and another. You can't call yourself a cyclist without a complete understanding of the techniques required to properly ride one."

a: Learning math ~
b: topiary for you neurons
What: "Learning math is like topiary for your neurons. Your goal is to train your brain to model the behavior of objects that respect axioms. In programmer talk, you can think of your brain as the machine you're trying to program, the book as your source code, and that "Huh?" feeling as a compiler warning."

Greek as Karate
a: Learning Greek ~
b: Karate
What: "Well, Greek is kind of like Karate, and as one can expect to get "beat up" every day by submitting oneself to the wholesome rigors of Karate, so Greek also will take its toll with memorization, composition exercises, and frequent quizzing."

a: Learning ballet ~
b: learning a language
What: "Learning ballet is like learning a language; a language that involves both your body and an outside source: the music. While you learn how to dance you will learn how to control every miniscule part of your body while also learning how to time your movements with the music. This mental workout stretches and strengthens the existing connections in the brain and it forces the participant to consider his or her environment in a different way."

Many Moods That You Control
a: Learning to use the subjunctive mood ~
b: learning to drive a stick shift
What: "Morano connected the reality of her writings to the overall mystery of life. This is the mystery every human being wants to figure out. Morano also does an excellent job using metaphors throughout the text. For example Morano says, "Learning to use the subjunctive mood is like learning to drive a stick shift. It's like falling in love with a car that isn't new or sporty but has a tilt steering wheel and a price you can afford."Or in other words the subjunctive mood is uncertain."
