Albert Einstein

Albert Einstein
Albert Einstein is a very inspirational person because he was a marvelous scientist and an extraordinary mathematician. During his childhood he never liked school but he was great at maths and music. He was slow and thoughtful. When he was nine he was clumsy with his speech. It seemed like he works better by himself at home but with the help of his science and maths books. In 1896 he studied at the institute of Technology in Zurich, Switzerland. He preferred to work by himself in the library. So he didn't bother to go to class. He was lucky he had a friend that didn’t mind sharing his notes.

After Albert graduated with a physics degree, he kept on working hard. He wrote four papers which presented some earth-shattering scientific ideas. One of them include the most famous maths equation E = mc2 which was the speed of light. In 1916 he came up with ‘ General Theory of Relativity ‘ redefined the laws of gravity. After all his hard work and successful papers he was awarded the Nobel Prize in 1921. He is persist, enthusiastic and a critical thinker. I want to be just like him, good in science and maths.
