Ray was drawn to music and literature.<\/p>\n<p>Even though she liked mathematics and recalls being fascinated by algebra; how \u201cx\u201d and \u201cy\u201d are used to represent numbers, she couldn\u2019t see how that would translate to something fun in the real world.<\/p>\n<p>Today, her view of this has changed considerably.<\/p>\n<p>She now thinks mathematical science is extremely fun and believes anyone can learn mathematics if they want to &#8211; especially if they find it fun.<\/p>\n<p>Charles, who studied music at the Conservatorium of Music in Melbourne, describes that becoming good at mathematics is just like getting good at the piano &#8211; it takes lots of work, patience, and practise.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPeople often say to me, \u2018I\u2019m not good at math(s)\u2019 but this is just like saying \u2018I can\u2019t play piano\u2019 when they haven\u2019t practised!\u201d<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"margin-bottom: 16px !important\"><strong>Never Too Late to Study Mathematics <\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>To my surprise, Charles doesn\u2019t see herself being great in mathematics, but she\u2019s very comfortable with being bad at it. Why?<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think this is a much more useful skill. Because I know if I find something hard, I understand it will take work to figure out, rather than giving up because I don\u2019t understand it straight away.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>To girls who wish to pursue a career in STEM but struggling in those subjects in high school, the data scientist and research software engineer assures them not to worry too much.<\/p>\n<p>Despite having dropped out of high school three times due to personal challenges and picking up mathematics again at the age of 30, she managed to carve a successful career for herself in the STEM world.<\/p>\n<p>She encourages students to get exposure to some programming, especially statistics, as it will give them a head start in finding opportunities in this growing field.<\/p>\n<p>While statistics may start out seemingly dry, she promises \u201cit gets incredibly interesting the more you delve into it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe world is currently undergoing a revolution in data. There are many new opportunities in data science, in every field imaginable,\u201d she claimed.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe best part about data science is that it is a transferable skill, so you can change fields, and apply your skills to new and interesting problems.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-3\"><h3 style=\"margin-bottom: 16px !important\"><strong>Follow Your Interest and Find Your Niche<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Dr Juliette Woods originally studied physics when she went to university but switched to mathematics after a while.<\/p>\n<p>The Principal Groundwater Modeller did her honours in Applied Mathematics and received her Ph.D. in Applied Mathematics (Computational Fluid Dynamics).<\/p>\n<p>She encourages students to follow up on all their interests, even if its more than one thing, that\u2019s fine, as \u201cyou might find a field that will combine it and it\u2019ll probably be extremely useful.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>For example, she had no idea that having an interest in geology, physics, mathematics, and computing could be combined into an actual field &#8211; one which is useful for people and the ecology as well.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI found the right kind of spot that fit me, but there are so many other kinds of mathematics and other kinds of places you can work in.

And this carries through.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEven in Year 1 when they were 5 to 6 years old, they either liked the subject or didn\u2019t. And they don\u2019t even know what mathematics is at that point &#8211; it was just counting,\u201d Mika added.<\/p>\n<p>She reminds parents to be mindful of their view and words of the subject, because \u201cas soon as you tell them it\u2019s hard and you don\u2019t like it, that shuts down and creates a barrier from an early age.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI see mathematics as a language, as an opportunity to communicate and solve problems,\u201d said the mum of two. She recounts how she sat down with her son one day, to solve his homework on prime numbers together.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe didn\u2019t need my help, but it was part of having that conversation about what we\u2019re doing, why we\u2019re doing it, extending it into a conversation and context.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"margin-bottom: 16px !important\"><strong>Finding your Inner

learning any new instrument or playing a sport, being good at mathematics simply requires a positive mindset, patience, and practise &#8211; lots of it.<\/p>\n<p>So, if you\u2019re like me and feel like you\u2019re \u2018naturally bad\u2019 at the subject, know this &#8211; there is an inner mathematician in you.<\/p>\n<p>You just haven&#8217;t discovered it yet.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><style
