“Math again!!” is what you hear in school whenever a math
lesson starts. I just do not understand why it is so hated in school. But maybe
I am wrong. Maybe I am mixing two
feelings here, hatred and fear. Is it possible that students are afraid of math?
It is quite possible this way. Sometimes it so happens that fear and hatred
join hands to cast their effect. And that effect is that students would never
wish to study math. Why is it so? Why do students “hate and fear” math? Why do
they find it boring? Is it because of math itself or the way it is taught at
school? In this article I will explore this topic in detail since I experience
the above mentioned situations taking place at my own school.
Alright, so first let us take the fear aspect.
