Is the 'Math fear' in Nigerian schools a result of low student confidence or unrealistic pressure from parents and teachers?
Context
Many Nigerian students grow up with a deep-seated fear of mathematics, often reinforced by the pressure to excel in external exams like WAEC and JAMB. While high expectations from adults are meant to push us to succeed, some argue that this constant pressure creates anxiety that actually hinders performance. Do you think our parents and teachers are truly helping us build confidence, or is this 'pressure-cooker' approach doing more harm than good?
