Making Math Less Difficult

Math is difficult, don't you think so???
so please please read the following useful article that i copied from some in the net....

Making Math Less Difficult

We have established a few things when it comes to math and difficulty:
Math seems difficult because it takes time and energy.
Many people don't experience sufficient time to "get" math lessons, and they fall behind as the teacher moves on.
Many move on to study more complex concepts with a shaky foundation.
We often end up with a weak structure that is doomed to collapse at some point.
Although this may sound like bad news, it is really good news. The fix is pretty easy—if we’re patient enough!

No matter where you are in your math studies, you can excel if you backtrack far enough to reinforce your foundation. You must fill in the holes with a deep understanding of the basic concepts you encountered in middle school math.
If you’re in middle school right now, do not attempt to move on until you understand pre-algebra concepts fully. Get a tutor if necessary.
If you’re in high school and struggling with math, download a middle school math syllabus or hire a tutor. Make sure you understand every single concept and activity that is covered in middle grades.
If you’re in college, backtrack all the way to basic math and work forward. This won’t take as long as it sounds. You can work forward through years of math in a week or two.

No matter where you start and where you struggle, you must make sure you acknowledge any weak spots in your foundation and fill, fill, fill the holes with practice and understanding!

Goodluck...
