Mathematics is disliked by most students.They hate it they condemn it.Many struggle with it while some are just tolerating it because they want a degree. After the degree I guess maths will become a stranger.To know maths you have to love maths.So how do you love mathematics?
- Go back to basics: To understand and love any particular subject or course, you should know its basics.Are you finding a particular topic difficult? I suggest you go to its roots, understand the basics.You will be shocked when you find out what you were missing.
- Familiarize don't Memorize: That's a whole lot of formula in mathematics. How do you memorize them? You don't need to, all you have to do is familiarize yourself with them.Practice practice practice, with time it will stick.
- Relate to real world: The last time I checked, mathematicians where human.That is to tell you that all topics in mathematics where inspired through mathematicians trying to solve real world problems around them. To love a particular subject more relate it to real world situations(that guy owing you ₦1000 has minus1000 of any amount in his pocket).
What are your thoughts about mathematics? Good or bad.
