Summary/Abstract: Mathematics is a subject that does not enjoy great popularity in school. Many students are afraid of math or do not understand why they have to learn it at all. However, this misunderstanding of mathematical learning content may become a problem for some of them. In some cases, such a difficulty can cause fear of mathematics, which is not immediately understood. Only when they grow up students begin to share and acknowledge that they are afraid of mathematics, on the one hand, and on the other, to apply their mathematical knowledge. Teachers need to know how to deal with this problem.
