How do you become good at maths?

Subjects I had difficulty with in school, I found sometimes it was useful to go pick up a book designed for someone who wants to teach themselves, or to try different old textbooks. Sometimes it's just the way it's being taught that's the problem, not the material itself.

I did this with high school physics for instance. I was failing the class at the start, but I pulled my mark up to a B (couldn't get an A because the early marks dragged down the average too much). I actually like physics quite a lot now. But the way the teacher taught that class, I just didn't get it at all.
