A lot of kids don't understand math. I like math and so does my son. Lucky because it makes it easier in store when it's like 10 or 20 percent off. We have if figured real easy.

I loved math until I met algebra. I understood the concepts but never caught on to the reason why I needed to learn this. All my life I have never needed this.

Sometimes i really enjoy participating in maths lessons but sometimes i get terrible bored, I love the problem solving side to maths. But when being taught how to do some maths i often loose attention ending up not knowing what i am doing.

Math is awesome. I think, that if you fear mathematics it is purely because of bad teaching. Everything can be made interesting with the right amount of effort and a little initiative, and math is so essential to alot of other things and studies that it is definately worth putting the time in, to get your kids hooked on it.

Honestly I feel that Maths is quite interesting. Maybe that's why I keep playing around with numbers in my head. E.g when I see a number, my mind would sometimes start working to determine if that number is divisible by 3 or 9 or something like that (usually I'll think of 9, though I have no idea why I think of that).

I'm good with Math... but I don't like it. I get it... but I don't get it. In other words, I can solve the problems you put in front of me but I don't much see the point. And I've always hated it. Numbers are evil. They're out to get me!

I enjoy solving the Math problems actually. Many of my friends hated Maths but the subject I really hated was Science. I mean i could never remember the formulas and the whatever were there. My grades were really low in Science, not in Maths though. I actually enjoyed maths class and did quite well too.

Hi, It is true that most of the students dont like Maths, it is just because they dont understand it. I myself is a student but with a difference that I like Maths the most. It is just interesting. Students have to love it, only then they will get it easier. In most case they put off their studies thinking maths is a boring subject.

Fear to maths among students is really unwanted. It can be avoided by guiding them proprly.
