Tear them or.
You are a product of a terrible teacher
Go to any school and ask the students to identify the subject they dislike most. Many of them will chorus “mathematics”. What makes student harbour a passionate hatred for this subject still remains a mystery for most educationist  .

. Many reasons have been proposed . One which seems to be overlooked is the fact that students do not feel connected to the subject in anyway  . Imagine spending hours finding ” x” when “x” is neither your brother or your sister only to search for “x the following day. It is not only routinal but boring. The student begins to wonder whether to use the same formula to find his biro.  This is because the teacher failed to explain to him the application of these formulas in real life situation.

Many mathematics teachers were top in their classes when they were students. When they are not learning in class, they are studying in the library. They spend little time socialising  and having fun     . They grow up to become an expert in mathematics but deficient in relating same to the student . They begin a topic by introducing an abstract theory and leave the student wondering how this theory concerns his life.

They do not deserve to be blamed.They only repeated what was handed over to them by their teacher  . Garbage in garbage out. They can choose to create a new tomorrow.

We can have outstanding mathematician but terrible teachers of mathematics. Great mathematics Teachers begin by stimulating the interest of the student. Students who are less than fourteen years of age are emotionally focused. They tend to feel more and rationalise less .

Simultaneous Equation. : Divide the children into groups of 4 .Ask tleaxh group to go to four different shops . Give each group #200 to buy pencil and biro  .total amount of both items  should be six. Compare each group answer. . Solve on the board. Which group got it right?

Speed : Take student outside  Measure any point A about 100m apart. Get each student to walk fast or run from point A to B and get another student to record time against the student. After each student must have done dat,take them back to the class and calculate the speed of three students. The remaining students should calculate their own  walking speed.

Volume of cylinder : Tell student to bring any empty milk ,or tomatoes container to class. Using ruler, they watch you measure the height and Diameter and repeat the same for their container. After that, you calculate the volume or area using formula method and watch them do the same  .

Average : each student is given a company name and asked to go to the library and get the prices of shares for nine consecutive days.They are to find the moving average of five

Area  The student measure the length and breadth of one class room tile  . Student count the number of tile in the class and find the product.

One way we make mathematics boring is that we do not involve the student in getting the data. We spoon feed them the data . In real life,they have to know how to get the data themselves.  Getting them to measure it themselves makes them engaged. One parent told me his child measures everything he can lay his hands on at home . After measurement, he would begin to calculate  . Things got out of hand when the television fell off. These method make class lovely, children interesting and active participant in the learning process, .Soon children will begin to love the subject

This is superb
A good way to educate
Re: I Regretted Going To University by VEE2010(m): 11:17pm On Sep 28, 2020
I hope the younger generations will learn from this.
Education is not just about acquiring qualifications, it is about learning to be productive. Theoretical knowledge should be an advantage to refresh your skills in order to have a better chance in the society.
Most of today's graduates are simply not employable given our poor and static education system. The world has gone beyond simple paper certifications.
Skill sets should be the first indicator rather than relying solely on paper that can be easily bribed to get in Nigeria.
I remember before I graduated my EDP was already opening my eyes to business. I developed and started production of paintings via EDP.
Learn something that will add value to your life. No one wants to hirer a liability.
Going to school is very important, so creating value makes you competitive

Life rewards your education as opposed to your qualifications!

University qualification is not really necessary but your education - some of which is usually to be introduced in a formal educational setting - is what matters most.

Have you built your capacity to solve any problems? You will definitely be employed or better still be an employer, if you can demonstrate to yourself or to any organisation that you have some developed capacity or even some potential to solve an existing problem.

Yes, the university system in Nigeria can be crappy but it's real value is to teach you how to think. That's why you learn all sort of abstract concepts without any seeming application to real life but it is to expand and develop your capacity to think and solve problems. And that is all you need to succeed in your life.

For full disclosure, I used to be a lecturer in the university.
My life changed as a student when I discovered this fact and I made sure my students understood this clearly.
I have left teaching but I have a good number of successful humans calling to thank me for good education.

pathetic, lame and dumb.

I didn't bother to read all you wrote here stopped half way.
most mathematics teacher never socialized in school? they are teaching abstract garbage in garbage out. the whole world seems to be lost why students don't have interest in mathematics. but somehow Mr you have all the answers.
such an dumb generalization that doesn't take individuality into consideration. where in the world did you get all this trash.
I pity the faculty of those liking this trash you wrote.

as a mathematician. I tell you the reason for the lack of interest in mathematics and numbers is simple: just social madness ( how we easily grab the unnecessary things of life, entertainment and leisure has occupied the brains of people hence the consider anything brain cracking as boring.

ps: next time you say such trash do well to recognize that you are in a public domain.
bottom line your deficiency in mathematics and numeracy is caused by your 10000% social nature, and internal fear of the unknown. leave the messenger(teacher) and focus on the message(math)

The person you quoted is right

And you are DEAD WRONG!
Most mathematics teachers suck in this $hithole country
I don't know much of elsewhere

Their empty headedness lack of pragmatism and outdated way of teaching and mentality has bred a generation of Nigerians that HATE mathematics and have no interest in it

If not for stumbling on some very good textbooks
And learning mathematics in my own unconventional way

I would have fallen in that bracket too.

Mathematics teachers need to step up and improve on their delivery
Period!
