HOWEVER….• It does not mean that if your score is low that
you are not good in Math at all; it only shows a certain degree of liking or disliking towards math. If your score is low, then there are things that you need to know in order to improve your liking in Math…
•DO YOU WANT TO KNOW THESE WAYS?

TIPS IN LOVING AND IN LIKING MATHEMATICS!
• 3. BE REGULAR• Dedicate some time to learn math each day. Make sure to allot at least an hour a day.
• An hour day makes your Math Okay!
![Page 15: How to love and like mathematics by Feljone Ragma](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061111/54559605af79590b088b49a0/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
TIPS IN LOVING AND IN LIKING MATHEMATICS!
• 4. PRACTICE• It makes you perfect. Solve as many math
problems as you can. In this way, you may get good feeling and get used to solving various math problems
![Page 16: How to love and like mathematics by Feljone Ragma](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061111/54559605af79590b088b49a0/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
FOOD FOR THOUGHT!
• In the process of practicing and repeated solving, try to get some easier steps…
• In solving this 16-5-3-23-39+16+75, regrouping according to signs can be used.
![Page 17: How to love and like mathematics by Feljone Ragma](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061111/54559605af79590b088b49a0/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
FOOD FOR THOUGHT!
• Observe characteristics; i.e. getting the slope, y-intercept and x-intercept of linear equations
Given Slope Y-intercept X-intercepty= 2x+4 2 4 -2
y=5x-10 5 -10 2y=4x-20
y=7x-14y=3x+7y=2x-15y=3x+10

TIPS IN LOVING AND IN LIKING MATHEMATICS!
• 5. SEEK HELP• Consult the more knowledgeable. You can
always seek help on something confusing and things you don't know yet
![Page 19: How to love and like mathematics by Feljone Ragma](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061111/54559605af79590b088b49a0/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
In seeking help…
• One can ask for the explanation of the solution• One can collaborate with another. One can
present a solution subject for critiquing.• One can discuss things that are not so clear
• NEVER SEEK HELP FOR THE PURPOSE OF JUST LEETTING THE MORE KNOWLEDGEABLE GIVE THE CORRECT ANSWER!

• 6. Play Math!...Connect math to the real world!
•HOW?

TIPS IN LOVING AND IN LIKING MATHEMATICS!
• You can play puzzles….quiz bees with friends…number games…number magic
• EX.• Think of any number multiply by 2, then subtract 8,
then add 2, divide the result by 2. Give me the answer, I’ll give the original number. (+III)
• Think of any number multiply by 4, then add 5 then subtract 3..then the result must be divided by 2, give me the result and I’ll give the original number. (-I/II)

TIPS IN LOVING AND IN LIKING MATHEMATICS!
• 7. Don't give up• All it takes is a little patience, a little
confidence and creativity to really love math! Don't be afraid to make mistakes. Experimentation and solving problems are exactly what math is all about. If you're having problems solving a difficult equation, don't give up! Ask for help!

TIPS IN LOVING AND IN LIKING MATHEMATICS!
• REMEMBER!
• Even the great mathematicians, EINSTEIN, EUCLID, PYTHAGORAS, ARISTOTLE, etc. didn’t get the answers to their questions right away.
They were even frustrated; but, they never gave up. They persevered..Look at them now,
even they are gone…their memories and legacies LEAVE ON…
