I am a science student and according to me where science lives mathematics is always there. Bio tech. Genetics, Biochemistry, Bio-molecules.... All have mathematical bases and logic, mathematics is the basic element for studying science after language.

Mathematics is more basic than language. Even the logic behind language is based on mathematical truth values. Mathematics is likely the most fundamental of all sciences. If you haven't already taken it there's a philosophy class called "Logic" that goes a lot deeper into what I mean. Since you enjoy writing and science I'm pretty sure you would really like that class.
What type of science are you majoring in?

I think you mistook what I said. "Mathematics comes after Language"

Think about it like this... do you think other animals can count? The answer is yes. Now, do you think animals can talk? The answer is probably no.
Your sense organs use math to make "pictures" in your brain on a subconcious level and that gets projected to your frontal cortex where everday conciousness is processed. How we've made robots with sense organs is that we figured out and understood the math behind how our own and other animals' sense organs worked and applied that knowledge mechanically.
So, what's your field of study?

Expression of Mathematics solely depends on language, if just animals can count but they don't have language, then it could be, they have discovered all the mathematical relations as well but they can't express because they lack language and what's the use of having the knowledge that can't be expressed, developed and applied? So in all if there was no language, we would have never known that mathematics ever existed.

Language is something that was invented to describe the world around us... math and the laws of physics etc. exist independantly of human beings, but langugage does not. Math is something that goes beyond language and applies to the most fundamental aspects of physical reality. Language has to do with abstract reality, which is something we invented. As you progress in your coursework this is something you're going to have to understand.

I used to be terrible at math but had a few good teachers so now I'm not so bad... but more importantly I know how to get good at math without first being good at math. It's way harder to learn a second language than it is to learn complex mathematics, and once you learn the math everything else becomes a whole lot easier.

Eventually you will hit a tipping point and you will become above average at math. Math is a skill that anyone can improve upon, keep reminding yourself of that and in time it will become a strength for you instead of a weakness.

From one non mathetician to a mathematician I liked it !

But you'd be suprised how intuitive some of those complicated concepts actually are to learn if you have the good fortune of having a good teacher. This might sound counter-intuitive but, you don't really have to be good at math to get good at math.
