  Case: Math Advice from Students Who Hate Math
I always wondered by students never liked math, they dread coming into the class or lesson. 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!)
Many students have an aversion to math. This may be emotional because it frustrates them or simply because they find it boring. The most important thing to keep in mind while teaching math is teaching a growth mindset. A growth mindset helps students want to learn and get better, instead of being bogged down by mistakes they are making. Making math interactive as well with activities and relevant lessons that relate directly to the real world may also help the students connect more with math.
