    1. I only will say this from my viewpoint - knowing multiplication tables is kinda a must. Calculators are fine and dandy but you should be able to multiply or divide complex and not round numbers - without any outside help. You don’t need to do it all the time, but you do need to understand how is it done.
    2. those are logic symbols. These you actually have to sit down and learn. And more you use them more familiar they will become.
    3. These things going to be used all the time while solving equations. For me it was easier to learn them after I actually solved them myself. You can do (a+b)(a+b) then sum up everything at the end. (a+b)(a-b) and so on…
    4. slow is good. Speed comes with practice, if you understand them and can figure out the solution by doing it step by step slowly - and at the end you check your solution and adds up - you are good to go!

    The biggest problem usually when someone don’t want to do something, while they have to. Whenever you are forced to learn, the process will be slow with suffering.
    Schools should entice and lead and make you want to learn - but if this is missing, then you are on your own - and that’s not good. People don’t enjoy doing stuff that they suck at (hence I avoid Elden Ring like a plague).

    Unfortunately this is the “being adult” part. When you either keep suffering or try to work on your own attitude. If you can’t change the world - then you can change the way you interact with.
    And By the title of this post, you are hoping to change it for the better. It will take time but I believe you can learn to love Math.


  • Your problem might be that you are missing the fundamentals.
    I’m not placing blame here, just trying to point out a problem that might be or not.
    In high school math was always fun to me - because it was always logical and always followed the same rules. But without foundation it is just random things.
    Here are some things that could be considered “basic” math tools to learn.

    Do you know your multiplication tables? Without thinking do you know all the answers?
    Do you know which symbols you understand and which you don’t?
    Do you know some formulas by heart? Like these: (a+b)^2=?
    Do you know how to solve quadratic equations, cubic equations?

    For mistakes it is easier to avoid them when you do everything in steps.
    Calculus and Matrix calculations can be really hard if it wasn’t broken down from the beginning.









  • Leaving a country isn’t that easy. And other countries has problems also - and being foreign in a country isn’t for everyone.
    I believe there is no reason to flee - yet.
    People are angry but it’s not revolution angry. I don’t think with the media and smartphones and all the distractions will let people to do revolution.
    If you still inclined to do so, check your tartget countries requirements for asylum or immigration. There are a lot of loops and hoops.
    Learning a local language, getting a job, a place to live and eke out a life in a strange place without support is really hard.
