Everyday maths made easier – for you…
Does the thought of working out a maths problem cause your mind to go blank, do you feel uncomfortable, helpless or panicked? If so, you may be experiencing maths anxiety or fear of maths – a common negative emotional reaction to maths.
The good news is you can do it – it’s just a matter of finding the right way for you and that’s what we’re here to help you do!
What is maths anxiety?
Maths anxiety is a negative emotional reaction to maths. It’s not linked to your intelligence or ability – in fact, anxiety can mask your real ability. A fear of numbers can lead to you avoiding everyday situations, and cause increased anxiety due to:
- being under pressure and scared of being judged on how quickly you can produce an answer
- negative experiences in the past, eg made to feel you’re not good enough for getting something wrong in school or work
- being scared you’ll get it wrong or just don’t know
Anxiety can create a cycle of avoiding maths, losing confidence and skills, so avoiding numbers even more. Does this sound like you?
You’re not alone!
There are so many people who feel the same as you!
