Need Help Admitting I Can’t Do Math
Hi there, I hope this is the right place to post this, but I need help with admitting I cannot do math. I mean nearly at all. I am a 21 year old F and I am in community college. Up until this point, I have completed every class necessary to graduate except my math classes. This is the first place I’m going to admit this, and it’s that I don’t know how to do anything but the basic functions such as adding and subtracting and multiplying. I’m not even clear on division. I have been able to get away with having a 3rd grade math level my whole life because I’ve always been good at the writing, history, and english parts of school. I live in a lower quality area and was just passed along in my math classes all through high school because they couldn’t afford to not pass me. I don’t even know where to begin on how to find a tutor that will understand this, and more importantly not judge? I have tried to teach myself over and over again, and I don’t know how to explain this but I just cannot keep track of numbers. Even measuring cups confuse me. I’m not even that good with counting money, but I do completely understand how, it just takes me several tries to get it right. It’s just embarrassing to admit honestly. I want to know that it’s alright for me to seek out a math tutor, even at the age of 21, but on top of that just not be judged for not knowing how to do math. I promise I want to learn.
