Silent Reading
Learning To Hate Mathematics
I started to dread arithmetic back in the third grade because I didnt
want to memorize the multiplication table. Unlike learning how to read,
studying math seemed to have no purpose other than to give me massive
Headaches and shattered nerves. The alphabet was a wonderful code that,

when deciphered, entertained me with stories and revealed all kinds of secrets
about the world. Multiplication tables, on the other hand, just told me how much
six times nine was. There was no joy in knowing that. Although even in third
grade I understood that I shared with many other pupils a terrible fear and hatred
of mathematics, i drew little comfort from that fact. Since then, I have struggled
with
number of reasons.
I especially began to hate math when my sister Celine forced us to
participate in her sadistic counting contests.
Having ordered us to stand in rows, this jolly nun would shout problems at
us: Forty- eight divided by three? ... Nine times twelve? The pupils who called
out the correct answers fastest would win; those of us who answered wrong or
not at all would have to to sit down.
To be honest, losing never bothered me that much. You know ,that awful
math feeling. During the contests, I would deliberately give an incorrect answer
early on so that I could escape the game quickly.
As I grew older, math grew worse, like a persistent headache that makes
you want to scream to relieve the pain.Patiently my brother would talk to me . He
helped me with my homework.
After years of hating math , I started to compoundd my difficulties .In anger
and frustration ,I broke pencils and tore paper as I dutifully filled page after page
with utterly meaningless calculations. In my recurring nightmares, my head was
fractured by fractions and crushed by multiplication signs.
Though Im through with my math classes now and carry a calculator in
my purse .math still has a way of making me queasy. On a whim th other day , I
bought a book called Mathematics for People Who Hate Math , though it seemed
written in a foreign language, Ive been enjoying the book. architecture and
engineering. In physics andelectronics, even in arts and music, mathematics
does have a purpose and a meaning. Now, without sadistic teachers conducting
drills or competitions, I think i might even enjoylearning about math--- on my own

terms , at my own pace. But dont you dare throw any problems at me when Im
not looking, because I still get that feeling in my stomach sometimes.
