      I was always a bit better at math than english in school, but I bet it’s flipped since then. I like them both because I love reading but I also love understanding things and math can be very helpful for that.

      I preferred Maths at school. I liked solving problems and I wasn’t particularly into reading novels, though I enjoy reading now. Also my GCSE English texts were quite boring…

      Hello there! I really liked Maths at school but I always felt it a bit too difficult (I was alway better at Biology!).
      I never did English as in literature (although I did the equivalent in Spanish and I did love it…).

      I really enjoyed learning English! I started studying it when I was 18, and when I arrived in England my English wasn’t that great but 10 years of practice of living and working in an English setting, and I still love this language.

      So… I guess my answer is English! (it’s been more useful so far…)

      Well I was always better at Maths, but found English more interesting (at least the literature side of it – I’m quite a big reader).

      I love them both but in different ways. I think I probably have more of a mathmatical brain though as I can remember things better if I put them in a numbered list!
