I m in 11th class and not able to catch good marks in maths suggest me ways to catch in maths.?

Answer 1

I am in the 15th class...college and am taking math too. How to catch up is difficult because of the layers of understanding involved. But here are some ideas that I use:

Number one:

Study in groups, this gives you a better chance of understanding the problems because somebody in the group might be able to solve the problem and the group will improve.

Do extra homework, don't just answer the questions assigned, but do the extra problems.

Talk with the teacher. See him for advice before or after class. They will be able to tell where you are having problems and be able to teach you in a different way than they used in the classroom.

Ask questions in class...this has helped me a lot, I have found out that other students really wanted the answer to the question but did not ask.

Get tutored....see if there is tutoring available for you.

When you are trying to solve the problems, do the work and then circle the part of the problem that you do not understand.

A lot of math in college goes back to the basics in algebra. Then we study calculus in the field I am in called economics.

Do not let math stop you, instead grab it and slay the dragon with the sword of understanding and perseverance.

Good luck...

By the way...there are some great on line help.

Answer 2

I will assume that you have asked your teacher for help (always the first step for two reasons -- first you learn to solve/find the problems in his/her way, and second the extra effort seen by the teacher can be helpful for those few extra points for effort that teachers claim they do not give -- but do).

Assuming that doesn't work, my children (I am an old fart with old kids) sometimes had this problem. What THEY did was find a teacher that they liked, and did well with, from 9th or 10th grade. They were willing to help, and explained things in a slightly different way.

The other teacher did not mind at all -- teachers really do want you to do well. Hopefully, the "other" teacher will be able to talk to your current teacher, and find where you started to "fall behind." THAT is where you have to start learning from.

The problem with math is that it all builds on the previous "chapter." So, if you started missing things in Chapter 3, you will get further behind in Chapter 4, further in Chapter 5, etc. So you need to master Chapter 3.

Now, the hardest part is that you will not see iimmediate success. For while you are mastering chapters 3-4, your class is learning chapter 7 (for example). Understand that until you get "caught up," you will not be able to master your current work.

Meanwhile, back at the ranch, see if you can get "extra credit" for re-learning the other chapters. Some teachers will do this. Others won't. But it cannot hurt to try. The position is that the purpose of the grades is to show whether you have mastered the principals taught, and that your previous grades do not properly reflect your new learning (and you do not really care for this year, you care for the transcript, which will be reviewed months or years after the fact).

Even if you do not get that extra credit, it should only take you a few months to get caught up, so next semesters grades should show a marked improvement!

Finally, do not be shy in asking for help. Teachers certainly do not do it for the money. They enjoy helping kids learn, and enjoy their subject. They get substantial satisfaction out of a student who is willing to put in the effort to learn, and then see the "fruits of their labor" by the student learning what they have taught.

Good luck.

Answer 3

First of all if u r shy the throw that out of the window. Get yourself out of that thing. Be bold. Try asking questions don't hesitate. teachers r there to help u and u must get the answers out of them. they should run away from u when u go to them with the book and that should be the way u must get to the core. maths should not be read but practiced. so practice as much as u can but don't buy too many books. have 2 or 3 books that u feel comfortable with. so things when u like them. don't do it for any other's sake. u must love the subject that u study. even though u don't like it u try loving it. have faith in u. keep all other things out of ur mind whenever u study. take breaks in between and don't study for long hours. have a plan but don't work according to that as u will not be able to do that and so don't plan do one thing at a time. get the concepts right and then do the problems.






there may be few general points but do have them in mind for scoring high marks

Answer 4

Find a good maths teacher in ur area and take tutions for Maths. Approach the subject with an open mind and I am sure U will do well and last but not least practice the same sums again and again, so that it gets registered in ur mind and U will do well in ur exams. Good luck 2 U.

Answer 5

Only one thing can be done.....hard work! You have to very attentive in your class and take good class notes. Try the maths at home, each several times, write down the problems you face. Ask your teacher or other students to help you in those problems. They may explain the problem to you. You will find example problems before each chapter of math. Try those alone and then check them yourself from the book. Mark the problems most difficult to you and try them again and again.Finally, don't try to remember your maths which you don't actually understand. If you understand, you will remember it.

Answer 6

you should try doing math questions every morning for two hours.try either using past papers or pick a topic and work on it on your own.It worked for me.i moved up the ladder From an E student to a B student in two years. That is what i used to do. Soo I thnk that in about a month you should be an A* student depending on how much effort you put.

Answer 7

Do not, I repeat do not take the class for her. If she is unwilling to put in the effort to make sure she can atleast pass then she does not deserve that degree. Also, if someone finds out she will get kicked out of the college and from my understanding it will go in her record. This would then make it difficult for her to attend another college. If she was your real friend she would not ask this of you. Best thing you can do is say that you would be happy to help with tutoring her, but you will not do her homework for her.

Answer 8

start from the very beginning, go back as far as you need to go to start getting the basic concepts down, and then progress through each step and level on your own time (You can do it if you really want to).

A tutor is a good idea as well. If you can't afford one, many schools and communities offer some free tutoring. Check into that.

Answer 9

I suggest that you get a friend that knows about math. For exammple me. My favorite subject is math and Im really good at it. Theres just one small problem about that. Im not in 11th grade . You should get someone in that grade or out of school.

Answer 10

ask a good friend to help you out, or take tutoring lessons. Or ask another freind if he has any class notes you can borrow and study those. You can go to a teacher after class and ask for help. Or you could resort to what everyone else usually ends up doing, ask your parents. Good Luck!
