My math teacher has really helped my see that I am not as bad at math that I thought I was, most of it seems to be a lack of confidence. Math is something that requires a very good memory, and a bit of practice, and I have a nearly eidetic memory for certain things, like music and language ( I can hear a word or phrase a couple of times and have it memorized, I can hear a piece once and ten years later remember it note for note) there is also a good bit of pattern recognition in math as well, I am very good at that as well. All these things would seem to lend themselves to being good at math, however I get to a test and completely freak out. He keeps telling me that it's generally just a matter of confidence. How do I build it up?
