Hi everyone,
Is Mathematics your favorite subject? I like it now.. but when I was in school, it gave me nightmares, literally... 😆
Did a teacher or parent or sibling or friend bring your interest to mathematics? No, all of them tried, but failed.. I began to take interest in it for achieving my career goals.
Are you strong in Mathematics? Not really.. I'd want to be.
What are your grades like in 8th, 9th, 10th? Always struggled to maintain an average score 😆
Do you still study or teach or work in Mathematics field? No, I study, learn mathematics.
Why do you think Mathematics is important? It is important. It sharpens your brain, keeps it active.. the feeling one gets while solving and after doing maths is what I like. Sometimes it's a good stress buster as well. It also makes life easier, when you can add/subtract/divide/calculate percentages in the mind without putting it on paper, like for everyday purposes... just cross-checking a bill, making a simple ballpark figure in mind while going through statistics or other numbers we come across in daily life etc.
One may not understand value of maths at young age, but he definitely will, as he grows up 😆 This is only from the individual perspective. Otherwise maths is important for almost every aspect of our life today..
