Mathematical experience is needed to build mathematical intuition. But when we talk about the students, mathematical intuition can be build from mathematical skills and be supported by knowledge that the student have (we can called mathematical content). The other aspects that is needed when student want to construct their mathematical intuition are mathematical attitude, method, supporting behavior, and internal motivation.
The fact, the teacher and the student got pressure when the national exam would be come. And what the teachers do? Maybe they skip the material or the theory and gave the student question and question every day. And the effect, the students have poor mathematical intuition.
