Five Hacks to Get Better at Mathematics

Image
  Image credit: Internet   Most students treat Mathematics as one of the toughest subjects to study. I wasn't different. I used to think of mathematics as the toughest subject in academia. There are numerous reasons for this kind of attitude toward mathematics: One of the major reasons is that mathematics is so poorly taught in most of the schools and colleges that students never understand the stuffs under the hood. They are almost forced to practice what schools and colleges teach them. Most of the students do so only for passing their math tests. Hence, the actual beauty of mathematics remains hidden. In this article, I will share five effective tips and tricks that helped me to get better at mathematics. There's a disclaimer that I am not a math expert but I was among the students who just do the calculation as the teacher shows and don't understand what's going on under the hood.

W hen it comes to Study, we think of financial support much more than proper guidelines. Here is a disclaimer that I am not opposing financial support in study, in fact, financial support plays a vital role in study. But a set of proper guidelines is the key to success indeed. Many parents think that they are supporting enough financially their children in study. According to this they expect a well established life of their children. But there is an important pitfall which is if the parents only spend pennies but do not guide their children properly, there is a high possibility that the son/daughter might be misguided. Some parents believe in freedom of choosing career and that's why they do not force their children at all to make an aim in life. That's fine, obviously. But once your child select a goal in his/her life, you should know the goal and guide him to achieve it. That will be the best solution. Because, sometimes children don't really know how to journey through
