What makes learning difficult for some and not for others?
February 4th, 2010 | by admin |I have a hard time learning a language but when it comes to math I learn more. Why is that?
Why can’t my brain apply how it learns math to learn a language as well?
Can you describe what a style is?
Learning a language is an auditory skill as we learn most vocabulary by hearing it. But Math on the other hand requires other skills, particularly, memorization of ways to solve problems, memorization of multiplication and division tables, as well as all the various ways to solve math problems. It is an intellectual skill. We all tend to learn differently. Some learn from hands on experiences. Other learn by listening, while another group learns by speaking and another learns by a combination of several ways of learning. Some kids like to do their work in an unstructured environment with loud music blaring while others need to concentrate in pure silence. So how we learn is different for every person.. Unfortunately, in most public schools, students are processed through the system by being forced to conform in a similar mold style of learning. As a result, some do not do well as their mold needs to fit their learning style.
If you are an auditory learning….try learning your math basics by making us silly songs to remember some of the things you need. Some need to use acrostics. There are tricks you can learn from some math whizzes….ask around.

It is mainly laziness or lethargy that remains a stumbling block. Procrastination, non-concentration, distraction, diversion, etc. are also some of the other reasons.
