description Math anxiety is a common issue among students of all ages, that creates a feeling of fear or apprehension when faced with mathematical problems or tasks, which can serve as a barrier to success in math-related subjects. While some people may find maths challenging, anyone can easily improve their math skills and overcome math anxiety with the right support and resources. This project aims to study different methods to introduce intricate mathematical concepts to children with the goal of creating an efficient, interactive and engaging education system. By crafting narrative episodes with imaginative visuals and personifying difficult maths formulas that appear in secondary school to A-level education, it aims to help students build foundations and appreciate the joy of learning mathematics.
