I often feel anxious when I learn math or before a math test. Sometimes, when I sit in class and the teacher starts talking about new math problems, my heart starts to race. I worry that I won't understand the lessons or that I'll make mistakes. Math feels hard sometimes, and I think about how I don't want to let my teacher or my parents down.
Before a math test, I feel really nervous. I always try my best to study and practice, but I still get that fluttery feeling in my stomach. I keep wondering if I will remember everything I studied. I think about all the numbers and problems and that makes me feel even more anxious.
But, I also know that feeling anxious is normal. My teacher says everyone feels nervous sometimes, and that it's okay. I try to help myself by taking deep breaths and telling myself that I can do it. Sometimes, I ask my friends for help because it makes me feel better to work together.
Even though I get anxious about math, I know that with practice and a little bit of help, I can learn and get better. It’s nice to know I’m not alone in feeling this way!
