Key Idea
Where to start off? Well, the first thing I must say about learning math is to learn it well. When I say learning it well, I don’t mean learning it the basic way: I mean learning the way that is the most understandable. Many teachers can make things hard to understand and can hinder the way the students learn and process information. The easiest way to learn is to find simple explanations for harder topics. You can find these on YouTube. I highly recommend looking at this channel >https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCEWpbFLzoYGPfuWUMFPSaoA.
The Original Chemistry Teacher explains not only math but codes and science as well. They make the videos simple and very easy to understand. Many have learned things that were taught in 2 hours, just by a short 10-minute video. I have learned many things, including polynomials, the quadratic equation and how it is used, and binary code conversion.
One of the reasons why some schools students are doing better than others is because of the teacher’s use of money. We don’t need much money for education, yet the US spends almost half of it on education, still ranking quite low. This depends on the teachers. The teachers must explain how the different subjects work in a way that is understandable. But, in some countries such as South Korea, students study harshly, sometimes even 14 hours a day for exams.
There are many different ways in which a person can learn, but this way is probably one of the most effective ways to learn.
Apps
Apps that I recommend are Khan Academy and IXL. IXL is good for review, but you probably will not use it unless you are in need of some practice. If you do like to practice, IXL would be a great app. To learn, Khan Academy is a great app. They order the math from the different grade levels, making a clean slate for every user. If you are in 6th grade like me, I would recommend starting at the “6th grade” Math section. If you don’t feel ready, (which is understandable) , you can try the “Get Ready for 6th Grade” Math Section. With this, you can feel ready for any
obstacle you may face in math!
Tips
One tip I would share for learning math is to not rush or hurry to understand. You must be patient, otherwise, you will not learn. You want to be completely focused on the topic. If you run into a part that you cannot understand, do everything possible to find out what it is.
To remember something in math, I suggest going back to the topic every now and then. If you don’t use the information you learn, you will probably forget it in a couple of days or weeks.
Q&A
Q: How long do you spend doing math?
A: I usually aim to do about 2 hours of math a day, and at bare minimum 30 minutes. Sometimes, I don’t feel motivated at all, so I’ll only do about 15 minutes a day. Yikes!
Q: How long do you recommend doing math daily?
A: I don’t recommend any certain time, just don’t go until your eyes are on the verge of burning. Also, you can do them in time intervals, so it can be less harsh on your eyes.
Q: Did you ever go to tutor?
A: Yes, I have for about a year or so. I wasn’t really into learning back then, so I forgot most of the stuff I’ve learned. But, I’ve relearned it this year, and I haven’t forgotten!
Q: What if I want to learn even after my eyes get burned and tired?
A: I recommend physical activity. It helps your eyes at an instant! You can watch TV while doing this. Since you are working out, you won’t pay much attention to the screen, so you won’t ruin your eyes. 😀
Thank you for reading this post! Keep updated for more in the future! 😀

I gone to Kumon, wasted so much time because I don’t do the work and I am lazy. Luckily my sis is there to save me.

Yup, time is wasted if you get tutors and don’t pay attention. The same thing happened to me, (as you can see.) Sometimes you’re just better off learning by yourself or with another family member! 😀
