Make math interesting

Welcome to free math tutor,

Find some relation between math and something that you're already interested in.
That might be target shooting, or building electronic devices, or
betting on horses, or playing with model trains. examples on math forum.
It's a good bet that no matter what you like to do, learning about math can let you do it
more easily, and can even increase the amount of enjoyment that you
get out of it.

Another way is to start doing math-related puzzles. Some people find
them incredibly boring, but others find that they make math come
alive. Another way is to learn to appreciate math the way many people
appreciate art, or music - that is, because it's beautiful. Read more on online math forum,
I would _strongly_ recommend that you read Doug Hoftstadter's book _Godel,
Escher, Bach: An Eternal Golden Braid_. Forget about the main chapters
at first. Just read the dialogs _between_ the chapters.
