I have heard this worry from so many effective students over the years. The honest answer is: Yes, you absolutely can.

Physics uses mathematics as a language to express ideas precisely, but you do not need to be a math genius to understand the concepts. For example, understanding why a heavy truck takes longer to stop than a Keke NAPEP is a physics concept (Inertia) that requires no math at first.

My advice? Do not let the math stop you. As we go through the topics, I will show you the "maths" you actually need, and we will practice it until it feels natural. Many great experimental physicists were not purely mathematicians. Just bring your curiosity!
