Follow me on:

According to this Spanish study, more women are impacted by Math Anxiety than men. Apparently the anxiety presents itself with nervousness, tension, confusion, fear and mental block to name a few. If you are one of those individuals who suffer from math anxiety, have a look at what you can do to overcome it. After all, I'm firmly convinced that anyone who sets their mind to learning math, absolutely can!

I don’t believe anyone has math anxiety, since I’m only ten and I learnt calculus, vectors, … and is learning about matrices and tensors for General Relativity

I do Believe people can have a math anxiety…I am currently studing Algebra 2 and its one of my harder clases…if confusion is catogorized as an “math anxiety” well many people must have this, though i agree it can be overcome

@ Chen, Wu Juang. People do have math anxiety, it is a very common thing. Just because you can do math at a young age doesn’t mean that other people can. Maybe you need to ease off of math for a bit and lean grammar!
