by Sandra L. Davis I have the right to learn at my own pace and not feel put down or stupid if I'm slower than someone else. I have the right to ask whatever questions I have. I have the right to need extra help. I have the right to ask a teacher or TA for help. I have the right to say I don't understand. I have the right not to understand. I have the right to feel good about myself regardless of my abilities in math. I have the right not to base my self-worth on my math skills. I have the right to view myself as capable of learning math. I have the right to evaluate my math instructors and how they teach. I have the right to relax. I have the right to be treated as a competent adult. I have the right to dislike math. I have the right to define success in my own terms.
