Abstract

Mathematics is an integral part of our daily lives, from basic counting and calculation to complex problem-solving. However, many school-going children develop a fear of mathematics, perceiving it as a daunting and incomprehensible subject. This phenomenon is paradoxical, given that children often acquire basic mathematical concepts through every day experiences and folk traditions. This paper explores the reasons behind math phobia in school children and identifies potential strategies to make mathematics an engaging and accessible subject. Drawing on first hand experiences and secondary sources, this study aims to bridge the gap between the natural, intuitive understanding of mathematics and the formal, academic approach that often leads to math anxiety.
