there was an ableist post going around shaming people who dont memorize the multiplication table

take it from me, top student in mathematics (in my batch) and a contestant in local math competitions

that thread was literal bullshit and there are days i use the calculator

dont ever be ashamed if you need to count with your fingers or need extra time to solve a problem. everyone learns on their own pace and on their own way.

shaming people for not memorizing UNTIL 20 ESPECIALLY is shitty

like some schools dont even teach that high up
i know for a fact i memorized only until like 12 because that was what is required of me. but look! im still a math contestant! because it isnt the end of the world if you dont memorize it

also, math aint everyones thing. math is a skill subject and definitely not the easiest
technology is improving, theres literal calculators in every phone. dont feel guilty when you have to use them for equations like 3x4. because the calculator is there for a reason right?

now dont be guilty about being “bad” at math okay? ill fight anyone who shames you for it
if you are a grade 9 or below student and have a question in math, theres a possibility i could help you. it will be harder because its online but i try my best to help as many people as possible

remember dont be shy to ask questions, even if it sounds stupid
