If you’re zoning out and not paying attention in class, it’s going to be much harder to keep up. Any time your teacher is going over problems or explaining a concept, follow along carefully. Make notes and practice doing the work. Make sure to ask your teacher if you have any questions or need more explanation. Math, like many subjects, is cumulative, which means everything you learned before matters for what you learn next. All the skills you learn build on each other, so it’s important to keep practicing. Try to work in a couple drills for things you’ve learned before every time you study. Think of these as warm-up exercises for the new techniques you will try. If there’s something you don’t understand or a math concept you’re struggling with, reach out to your teacher. If there are tutoring programs at your school, local library, or somewhere else, take advantage of those, too. Don’t be embarrassed to ask for help. Math can be difficult, and there’s a lot of information to keep up with. The most important thing is to make sure you understand how to do the work, and anything that helps you do that is a good thing. Convince yourself something like: "I can become better at math, learn to like it, and I can see the point of math. I need it for technology, science, and preparing for more advanced math. I can use data and formulas in real world applications. I can do it all by trying my best, and I will continue to learn and improve my understandings." We all communicate with symbols. Words are symbols. So, whatever you can write, read, hear and speak can be clear and meaningful in math. Love your math-sense. Math empowers you to quantify, measure, count, use data, calculate, name and describe objects, places and may use pictorial diagrams, maps, or depict info as graphs and charts involving numbers, of course. Make a conscious effort to hear and verbalize math. Math symbols should not be treated as inactive marks just "staring at you" -- or you staring at them. Pronounce math symbols as words.
