Mathematics is a subject that is often difficult to understand, perceived as uninteresting, and can be boring for students. This study aims to analyze the learning difficulties faced by sixth-grade elementary school students in mathematics. The research employs a qualitative descriptive approach. Data collection was conducted using tests, which were then confirmed through interviews. The researcher selected six subjects as representatives from each category, high, medium, and low proficiency, for interviews following the tests. The results indicate that (1) the first indicator was manageable by high and medium proficiency subjects; however, one medium proficiency subject faced difficulties, while low proficiency subjects struggled with the questions. (2) The second indicator was also manageable by high and medium-proficiency subjects, with one medium-proficiency subject experiencing difficulties, similarly, low-proficiency subjects encountered challenges. (3) For the third indicator, all subjects, high, medium, and low, faced difficulties in solving the questions. This study reveals that students of varying proficiency levels, high, medium, and low, experience challenges when learning about solid shapes.
