First term in Maths

It has definitely been more challenging than what I had initially expected. The requirements and demands and structure of the course is definitely a fresh experience. Furthermore, the tests are completely different to what GCSE’s were like. The class structure of doing 2 segments of the course with 2 different teachers is also difficult to adjust to. I feel like that has been an issue for me this term, adjusting to these changes and doing my best possible. I feel sometimes, I am more laid back and do not put the effort necessary or work to my best capability. I have enjoyed the nature of working at your own difficulty and the freedom of choice we have sometimes. Furthermore, the interactive nature of lessons and the board work has been helpful. All the extension and consolidation of work given to be done at home can also be a good resource to depend on. Working with a fellow classmate can also be quite helpful.

I think I learn best if I learn a new method during class and then practice those skills. And then later that day at home if I consolidate upon the skills I have freshly acquired, and keep my mind in constant reminder of what I have learnt. I feel a subject that is personally similar to Mathematics is Computer Science because both require skills of ingenuiety and quick thinking on the spot.
