Math is a language! Just like English – which has building blocks and rules, Math uses its own language – which is made of numbers, formulas and symbols. We put these together to help us measure, identify or solve important problems like change, time, speed, space, distance, force, and quantities.
When we study Math, we find structure and patterns in our lives. With Math, we can create graphics, construct websites, build shopping malls. And generally have a better understanding of how things work, how things change over time, and if/when they will change under different circumstances and conditions.
A good Math tutor will explain why certain methods work better than others, so that you can safely score better marks at your next important exam.
Mathematicians and scientists are continually discovering new theories and inventions. This means that our understanding of Math grows and changes.
So, learning Math helps us to be analytical and to be logical when solving problems. It teaches us to be precise in our thoughts. It also helps us be creative, because different formulae can be used to arrive at the same result.
