MATHS:LOVEITORLOATHEIT

What is Mrs House's favourite Maths topic? She answered, "My favourite Maths topic is algebra. I find the topic to be rather balletic and it’s lovely to see how you can start with a rather difficult, ugly expression or equation and find a simple solution or answer by performing certain skills to it. When teaching Maths I like many of the topics Shape work such as angles is one I like to teach, however I find the majority of the topics enjoyable." Then I asked her what she would do if she was not teaching Maths. She told me, "If I could do any other job, I think I would have liked to be a set or costume designer for theatre. I love going to watch theatre productions and I am always amazed at the clever ideas that are used to portray different scenes and different atmospheres. Theatre is a great way to immerse yourself in a new world or escape the normality of life for a while."

It has been interesting to hear what other people love or loathe about Maths The one thing I take away from this is whether you really love Maths like Mrs House, and it is part of your job or like Emily you are not a huge fan and you find it annoying, there is one thing for sure, we all have our different reasons why.
