The article discusses how non-mathematical students learn to understand mathematics, or rather help understand, in order to form their general mathematical culture of cognition. Thereby, their mathematical thinking becomes a rational and communicative phenomenon, so elements of higher mathematics should become one of the main courses in the fundamental training of future specialists. With his rhetoric and understood argumentation, a creative teacher leads the student to correct reasoning. The understanding of higher mathematics is characterized by the ability to establish logical connections between accumulated and new knowledge. The cognitive ability to prove is very much demanded by the course of mathematics in geographical and environmental research.
Key words: rhetoric in a mathematical lecture, rational reasoning, higher mathematics for students-geographers.
