Since math phobia seems quite common, isn't Math perplexed given that it openly claims about having so many irrational numbers?
Maybe a comedian might do a good performance.

Not so math phobic to prevent me from becoming a bookkeeper. (In the past.)

Dear phus,

People who refuse to wear gloves when it's freezing out are irrational numbers.

As a former educator in NYC for over 40 years, it saddens me to hear about Math Phobia! I loved teaching it to my fifth graders and was successful in getting them in not only liking math, but also valuing its purpose in their lives! The key is to understand why something is being done. Slow. Steady. Lots of mainpulates. Sometimes even a song and dance! Anything to frighten the Math Phobia away and open up my students' knowledge and learning abilities.
