I thought I sucked at math for a long time, reinforced because my math teachers in school believed it too.
Turns out I suck at spatial thinking. I can’t manipulate things like plots and curves in my head and they don’t help me understand mathematical principles. Algebra and logic though come easy to me. So learning math became an exercise in translation.
That is to say, please don’t think you suck at math and definitely look at different ways to learn the same concepts if something is not clicking.
