Hatred for mathematics at school

India

I was very poor at mathematics during school days.I just use to hate the subject and my confidence level was also low. It was so difficult to learn by heart theories and formulas. On the day of mathematics exam I get very nervous.What if I forget the formulas and theories. I used to get very panic on seeing the question paper. Many students now days face the same problem and hate the subject.Many have fears.How can we overcome this fear and love mathematics.

Maybe you should enroll in summer classes or Math tutorials. I was also having difficulties in Math when I was younger. Our school's summer program for Math and English was mandatory so that failing students like me would have a chance to graduate. After that summer class I was more confident at solving equations and memorizing formulas. I can even perform arithmetic in my head without the use of calculators.

Really good to hear that. I think I must try the summer classes.

I got my children private tutors when they were young on subjects that I see they are having difficulty or if I had time I tutor them myself so we could save, they bond with their tutors and boosts their confidence because they always have somebody to ask or phone.

I don't like Math too, when I was younger. But now, I realize, it is easy as long as you study it!
