How do I become more confident in maths?

Anonymous
Ever since I started high school I've been experiencing panick during maths periods. And I hit a failing point in start of 10th grade and that the first time in years I ever broke down in front of my mother. I'm in 11th grade now and it just keeps getting worse. I practice, I have extra classes my parents pay a lot for to try help me and I feel bad they doing it for me. I really do. I sometimes ask questions. I also try attempting on the board. My teacher does put a lot of pressure on me and saying "If you fail this test, know your place." He teaches quick too and I'm a slow learner ngl. Then when the tests or quizes come, I feel a huge wave of panick to the point I forget how to spell my name and wanna run out. And now I'm just scared of maths and thinking about dropping to maths lit but deep down I really wanna continue with core maths. My physics teacher does help me a lot with calculations and I've went from 20% to 64%(in physics) . I don't wanna give up. I've tried many ways to cope but I still fail. And i notice I tend to compare myself to my classmates so much and dumb myself down and now it's affecting my other subjects too. My 11th grade marks are important I need them to apply for university. I'm feeling so hopeless and depressed rn and i don't know what to do anymore. I pray and pray but don't feel heard. Please advise me.
