I don't know whether I'm alone in this field of thought but I have found it difficult to love mathmatics no matter how hard I try. I equally have the same negative perception towards my maths teachers.

That is the main reason why there is annual mass failure record , especially in nigeria. But, honestly, maths is not as scary as people put it. I love maths.

Maths is such an easy subject. It is all about understanding the basic principles. I love my dad anyday. Thanks to him for making me a Maths guru.

I never hated Mathematics. Though i found some aspects like Geometry very interesting, there were some other areas i had issues with. However the ones i enjoyed was just a piece of cake.

Re: Why Do People Generally Hate Maths? by Nobody: 9:41am On Jul 05, 2012
The main reason is this: Mathematics requires a lot of thinking and logic...Most people from this part of the world are lazy mentally...That is why we have quack Engineers and Computer Programmers all over the place. You have to be ready to task yourself mentally for you to be great friends with mathematics...Mathematics is life bro. Everything you see around you is mathematical...From the words you speak per minute to your heartbeat rate, to the replication rate of bacterial, human, fungal cells, to the number of your steps per minute, to the flow of the day, the amount of revolutions of the earth per year...LIFE IS MATHEMATICS; MATHEMATICS IS LIFE....Believe it or not: Mathematicians are the most intelligent set of humans...QUOTE ME ANYWHERE

Maybe people don't like thinking too much. Sometimes something has to make you like a subject.
Re: Why Do People Generally Hate Maths? by Nobody: 9:42am On Jul 05, 2012
Love maths, simple, logical and to the point. Bad teachers can make you think you hate maths though

I hate and dont know Mathematics before, coz i dont develope interest in it. But now i tink i m performing beta dan b4 coz i now develope interest in it!
Re: Why Do People Generally Hate Maths? by Nobody: 9:54am On Jul 05, 2012
Another reason why people hate Maths is the Teachers employed to teach the subject. I can remember how right from primary school up to secondary school alot of the maths teachers that I cam across were usually mean to their students if they fail to grasp the principles. They have in a way discouraged alot of people from truly loving maths as a subject.
Re: Why Do People Generally Hate Maths? by sarutobie(m): 9:55am On Jul 05, 2012

Re: Why Do People Generally Hate Maths? by LesbianBoy(m): 9:55am On Jul 05, 2012
OP, the teachers are to blame! Maths is one of the easiest subject!
Re: Why Do People Generally Hate Maths? by Afam4eva(m): 9:56am On Jul 05, 2012
People normally hate anything that incolves too much calculations and are not straight forward. But what some people don't realise if that maths is straight forward once you know the formulae for a particular equation. Just make sure you take maths seriously in nursery, primary and junior secondary school and you'll love mathematics.

But i was able to study it up to graduate level, even though only four of us graduated without re sitting a paper then. Love and passion is all that is needed to do well in any thing.
Re: Why Do People Generally Hate Maths? by Nobody: 9:58am On Jul 05, 2012
[b][/b]Maths is just like any other subjects in the school, belief me if any body is performing well in any course the curiousity and the seal of the person matters. If we all hv a seal dt maths phobia has to be a thing of past is definately going to be so. But it is a thing of sham dt may science student in Nigeria still found to hv not idea about basic rudiment of maths. So take it from me maths is the bedrock of all technological advancement!
