Maths is one of those things you need a very good teacher for. I'm not inherently good at maths, but I can do it to a certain level without much trouble.
So many people suffer doing maths. All my mathematician friends feel that there must be something wrong with how they teach it. It is a shame, because on some levels it's pretty fascinating stuff.

Congrats 8u
I've been neglecting the room items.
I want clothes items in case they inflate and I can sell them 8>

I've had several teachers and none of them helped me much xD
I think some people just aren't good at certain things.

After I get all the items I probably will try to get some extra avatar items.

I don't think I had any particularly helpful math teacher either.

Tests are nerve wracking regardless of whether or not I study although the amount of nerves is probably proportional to the amount of study I've done.
You just never know what they'll put onto the test paper or if you'll spontaneously forget or you do stupid mistakes.

I've never really had a major problem with math and especially since my entire degree is math and applied science. There's a lot of calculations involved, the occasional report, a lot of research.
All my tests are problem solving ones that include numbers, equations and interpretation from work into numbers @_@
Whoop, whoop engineering life.

I struggled the most with English in high school and sociology and philosophy courses in uni. F*ck arts >> None of it makes sense to me.

Ahaha. Poshi, I must be the opposite to you, I could manage maths okay, but I wouldn't say it was my strong point.
Now I'm a PhD student in Literature and Philosophy XD Go arts!

Most definitely. I took a sociology course once.
I wanted to cry throughout the duration of the course.
I really tried to do well but I only managed a 63. I'll sit in lectures thinking, 'OK, this is understandable, I can do this,' and then we get to the text analysis part and I'm like, 'from which magic hat did you pull that conclusion from 8u fml.'

I have a lot of trouble concentrating on things that don't interest me.
Like math. So that's part of the problem. But when I try hard to learn it, it still doesn't sink in.
Someone told me I had ADD or ADHD and I said "No, I just don't like boring things :u"

I can understand how math can be dull to most people. Haha.
I enjoy methodical things and also problem solving so these type of things make me somewhat happy >>
That's what my friend asks whenever he gives me a stupidly boring video and asks me to watch. I try and then I don't finish and then he complains that I must have ADD to not be able to get through a 5 min youtube video.
I just squirm about when things are dull.

Interest is at least half of what makes you want to learn, I'm certain.

If it's something that interests me, it'll have my undivided attention xD
That's just how it is.
