“You’re just not applying yourself”
The brain noise. The anxiety. It’s like trying to read a book with a movie playing.
It’s not a lack of effort.
It’s not that you’re not applying yourself.
Trying to understand to the point of tears, and still not getting it…
Sounds like effort. Sounds like you are applying yourself.
The A’s and B’s in every other class were proof that I did not apply myself any less. The math got harder.
I got left behind sitting in the exact same classroom as my peers.
It’s damaging to hear that you’re not trying, when you never stopped.
This is dyscalculia.
