I had my first Maths trial lesson today.

I was nervous, but he was really nice and I'm going to continue with him. I got a B grade at GCSE in the end, but I still have the "I am dumb" mentality and I was told by a temp maths teacher in year 11 that I was "slow".

I really did let other people's opinion of me matter more than my own.

So hopefully he will help me change that.
