You will not find an easier course to study than mathematics. 1+1 is 2 any year you wake up. The rules are fixed. They don't vary with time, weather or environment. My experience with students point to a general lack of self belief and passion. They just follow the general belief that the subject is difficult.

My study also shows that many students lack basic arithmetic skills....i mean simple tens anx units, addition and subtraction, Times table 1-12. I have met undergraduates and graduates struggling with simple additions which is embarrassing.

The teachers have their role to play but I consider it a taboo for any parent to allow their child finish primary education without knowing in details:

Times table 1-12
Addition and subtraction/Tens and units
BODMAS
Mean, mode and median
The kidmust develop a routine to practice


These are rudiments the child must understand before secondary education. They form the basis for mathematics,additional mathematics, physics, chemistry, accounting, economics, engineering, computer science, etc.

Jf your child understand these basics jn mathematics then it is either an 'A' or an 'A' at the SSCE in mathematics.

There are thousands of ways to relax but my lovely thing is write a paper, firstly I started to write like a hobby, but then I understood that it's my future job.
