Abstract

Mathematics is notorious for being a difficult subject. Algebra, as a whole, is feared and despised; so also is a topic like Fractions. There are many reasons that make mathematics a difficult subject. One of them is its already earned reputation. Teachers, parents and children (as a result of the other two) start the process of teaching and learning mathematics with a pre-conceived notion of the subject being difficult.
