Math. The name strikes fear into everyone that hears it. However, math is the art of explaining simple things in a complicated way. Math is like building blocks. You need to have a good foundation before you can actually build the structure. What is this foundation. Look at it this way:
Arithmetic: Learning to actually use numbers in simple operations
Algebra: Taking arithmetic and using it to solve for more complex things such as equations.
Arithmetic is the basis for algebra. Make sure your arithmetic and algebra foundations are strong, because all higher level maths rely on them.
Example of higher level math include Geometry. It deals with shapes. Trigonometry is a branch of geometry that deals with triangles. Calculus is a branch of math which involves describing motion and change. It is probably the furthest you'll ever need to go into math.
