The article expresses the difficulties of both learning and teaching math. The author suggests that teaching methods are outdated and not necessarily relevant to today's students. The author also points out that students can struggle with a variety of conditions that may limit their ability to absorb and retain information, such as arithmophobia, number phobia, dyscalculia, and intra parietal suclus (IPS). The author suggests that "math therapy" may be a useful tool for students struggling with these issues.
