I was never good in maths in lower grades because I always got the wrong results. I started to become good when it was no longer about knowing what 5 times 13 is but about algebra and especially vector geometry . I still love it but for my husband it was a torture at school and he still hates it. Both of us were able to make our way in life I still hope that you may discover the fun in math as I think it is such a rewarding discipline. And for that getting the basics right and start from there is the right way.
