I was introduced to statistics with the mathematical approach, and it failed to help me understand why things were the way they were, due to the lack of context and application.

Later I re-learned it in an applied way, and things made much more sense to me.

(That's fine if you liked learning it your way, but that's no reason to be skeptical about other approaches.)
