Is it because of the teacher and how they instruct the lesson or is it because math is hard? What are some tools/strategies/ even advice for a future math teacher to make the math lessons more appealing for my students? Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) I struggled to understand math as a student, so I dreaded every math lesson/class. What changed everything is when my science teacher took me aside and explained how everyone has certain strengths--for instance, she knew I loved writing. Sometimes, when we have strengths in some subjects, we tend to have challenges in other subjects. I was good at English but found mathematics difficult. Knowing that nothing was wrong with me, that it was normal to struggle in some subjects, I was more confident in math class.                 Rating The suggested solution is respectful of the individual (student) Yes The suggested solution is relevant to the case Yes The suggested solution is reasonable (easy) for the teacher to implement Yes The suggested solution is likely to solve the problem/issue Yes The suggested solution is original Yes Comments: I liked the strategy to encourage students' strengths.
