Can we still contact you even if our performance in math is not particularly impressive so far, but nevertheless we would like to improve it? Learning math has long since been my main educational objective; however, I've practiced very infrequently due to poor motivation and I've never really gotten far. I'd love to hear from people who have "made it" in math, and find out what they did right in order to get there, and how to best go about studying math.

I'm not sure someone like me wouldn't basically be a waste of your time, though; maybe the time spent advising me can be better spent on someone who's truly worth the effort.
