Do you fear math or know someone that does? Chances are that if you are like most people than you do know at least one person that fears math. But, the question now becomes do the students really need another year of math or should our attention be directed to helping them make sure that they have been taught is actually understood? Math is everywhere and literally can be used every day.

I have taught math in high school and tutored math in college. I found that once you take the fear away, they absorb knowledge like a sponge.

If you reduce your fear of math, you will succeed.

One of the best ways to have students or anyone really to embrace something that they fear is to make them believe that they can succeed. Failure seems to be a big part of fear.

2

3
