Journal- How to I feel about math

I have anxiety about math I did not sleep well before the first class. I have never
done well in math at all even in elementary school. I just do not understand it. I
took stats 5 times and never passed it. I just do not get it. It is like a part of my
brain just shuts down when I start to do math.

Class Math experiences

Anxiety

Language barriers

Frustration

Timed-test: speed

Teacher- one way to solve

Video about mindsets

Everyone can learn math to high levels

Believe in yourself

You need to change your mindset

Big difference between growth mindset and fixed mindset

Growth mindset- everyone can do it

Fixed- oh you can’t learn that

Struggle and mistakes are important

Speed is not important in math
