Evaluating your attitude towards maths

Normally it is seen that students are not interested in maths ; may be they find it quite tough or have set a negative attitude that they will not be able to do it.So, in order to learn maths firstly one needs to develop a positive attitude towards the subject because your attitude directly affects everything that you attempt  and determines your success.the most important thing is not to pass the subject for marks but students should learn it by heart. They should try to understand each and every concept related to their topic and clear out their basics first because if the foundation is strong ,only then the building will be strong..i.e if fundamentals will be clear,  so definitely one will find the subject easier and more interesting.I have normally seen students cramming the theorems in maths ,mainly in higher classes.but, i  would definitely suggest not to cram the theorems as it will not help the students in any way.One should try his/her level best to understand the basic of the theorem because ultimately maths means to develop your mental level.So the main thing is that one should have a positive attitude towards maths.

Your attitude towards maths affects how well or often you do it ,and mainly how much enjoyment you derive from it.Many students have a negative attitude towards maths that can be described as "maths phobia" or "maths avoidance". Math phobia is a state of such tension or fear that the learning process in maths is blocked or interrupted. Maths avoidance usually occurs because the fear causes a person to react negatively to mathematical situations and therefore avoid them as much as possible.

The mathephobics have generally difficulty doing well in maths. But the thing ts that difficulty is not related to their ability but their attitude; the fear they have in mind that they cannot do well in maths which really affects their performance. Researchers have found that one of the traits of mathematical problem solvers is a low level of anxiety. So, if you feel you have this fear of maths, it is important to recognize that you can change your mental state that causes fear. Identify the negative statements that you make that are self negating and that cause you do poorly merely because you expect to do poorly .You should stop making negative statements and start making positive ones towards maths and your mathematical abilities. Definitely, you will be able to develop better mathematical skills than earlier. I expect that my article will help you to do better in maths.
