This seems more like a general issue as opposed to a topic-specific issue. For one, have a positive mindset. Say to yourself that it’s ok to not understand everything. But carry on from there.

There are many videos on youtube that help to explain about the topic in precise detail. It won’t hurt to try and you can always opt out (or try something else) if you feel like it’s not beneficial.

As for school and homework, you could always ask your teacher for help. I know it feels nerve-wracking and overwhelming to ask but keep in mind that they’re there to help! Also, like you said, you’re in year 11 so you won’t see them again after this year, so why not?

Out of curiosity, do you mean simultaneous equations? I don’t remember learning about stimulus equations, nor do I think it’s a mathematical concept. Maybe that’s just me tho.

youtube videos on topics youre struggling with should help or ask your friends for help :smile: Once you've get the concept do lots of practice questions to ensure you fully understand it
