I was never a Math guy because I hate numbers and formulas. Whenever I see numbers , I almost get fainted. I think I was and still is experience phobia about Math.That's why I never did good in my Math class when I was young. I enjoy my study in creativity ,imagination stuffs, humanity and historical stuffs as well. That's why I didn't like scientific stuffs at all even sometimes I found it was interesting though. I think it is a matter of right brain dominated or left brain dominated issue just like what we have learned from introduction to Psychology mentioned about. However, I do want to overcome my fear of Maths and enjoy a little bit of it even I may not be an outstanding person in this subject. But if I can enjoy it just a little bit more, I think I will feel happy about it. What is advise for me ? Share with me ?

@wildlittlefan i was only joking, to be serious I think math games is fine, never thought that math was fun or was any use but in real life it has plenty of uses like computing square meters of a property, computing board foot in materials, yes again the fun part assets and liabilities, the only real math i know is one we could apply in real life otherwise its the the same boring subject in school and I felt very much the same way you did till I rediscovered applications in real life

Turn math into something fun. There are iPhone apps, books and math board games that could interest you. I used to hate math years ago but then I knew it's something I needed to overcome and learn. Start slow and make a goal of learning math. Try to improve on your weak points and just have fun and not worry too much. The trick is practice makes perfect and you can learn from YouTube videos about many categories in math. Lastly, believe in yourself that you can do it, persevere and never give up. You can do it.
