Are You Math Phobia?

For a lot of people, MATH is the abbreviation for ‘Mental Abuse To Humans’. You must have heard of it too, right? Well, it’s not true. Maths is a scoring subject and the only way to learn Mathematics is to do Mathematics. If you can’t relate interesting word with Maths, then sorry to say but you too belong to the ‘Maths Phobic’ club. Fight the fear of Math today and score well tomorrow. Here’s how:

1. Explore new learning options

If you’re sick of old, heavy and bulky Maths books Learn Maths with educational tablets. Educational DVDs, CDs and Pen Drives are next on the list. Such educational devices feature advanced learning modules and come pre-loaded with rich content library and assessment tools. These tools facilitate learning from attractive illustrations, examples, diagrams, presentations, charts, animation etc. You can find a number of Maths Apps for your smartphone on Google and learn as per your convenience anytime and anywhere!

2. Try out with friends

For most students, Maths is hard and often uninteresting. If you are one of them, you can add a fun element to your learning by solving math problems with your friends. Talk about problems, compete with each other and assess each other’s performance. You’ll find it more helpful than sitting in your room alone and fighting with Algebra, Trigonometry or Integration.

3. Read every problem completely

Many a time important information goes unnoticed when you read a problem just for the sake of getting an answer. Glancing hastily and starting calculations often lead to wrong answers. Efforts and time, all in vain! To avoid this, pen down every given value and figure out what is required. If you find the question complicated, read it again.

4. Change the words

Whenever you find any Math problem boring, make it a little interesting for yourself. Try changing names, words, etc. just to hold your interest in the problem. Never change the original numbers in your problem when changing words. This might lead to wrong answers and a heavy disappointment.

5. Understand by drawing

Be a little creative! If possible, try to understand problems by drawing diagrams. This really helps in understanding exactly what the question is asking making it easier to find a solution.

6. Practice makes a man perfect

Math demands practice. After you are finished with your text book learning, use reference books to solve more questions. This will help in confidence building and will make certain concepts more clear.
