Mathematics helps us have better problem-solving skills according to Francis Ejikeme-Nzeh
Give me anything but not Mathematics, While growing up I hated mathematics but definitely not all the topics
there. I love topics like addition and subtraction.
How on earth do you expect me to find x and y when am not a police officer. If I become a doctor will I be asked
to find x and y? Most students are tired of finding x and y all the time because they don’t know how it relates to
real-life situations.
School owners, teachers, and parents need to examine what a student need and how to apply it in their life.
It is not about giving out a scheme of work and teaching. You need to examine and explain how a subject and
topic is important to their lives with its application in real-life situations.
