This paper does not seek to identify and analyze the reasons for the frequent trepidation many students feel towards Mathematics. Rather, its scope is limited to recognizing the signals of that fear being manifest in students. This paper explores the complex and varied ways that students unconsciously or instinctively demonstrate that often debilitating fear of Math. The paper suggests pedagogical strategies which teachers of the subject can use to recognize and assist in the amelioration of that fear. Some of these strategies may be generally applicable to any or all disciplines; some are specific to Math
