I’d like to talk about my math teacher in high school, Mr.Wang. Whenever I take maths problems, the face of Mr.Wang readily appears in front of me.
I was poor at maths in my high school. I remember the time of one test. I had the idea of looking in my notebook secretly. Unfortunately, my secret was discovered by him, but he said nothing in front of my classmates to save my face. After the test, I was alone in the classroom and thought about what I had done. Mr.Wang called me from behind. My heart was beating fast and I guessed that a shower of scolding would fall on me. Nevertheless, instead, he said kind words to me and encouraged me to be an honest person. I was moved to tears.
After that, he helped me with my lessons after class and taught me how to apply the theoretical knowledge to the process of problem solving. Thanks to Mr.Wang’s patience and selfless contribution, I made progress little by little and achieved a relatively high score in the college entrance examination.

Have you ever been inspired by some people and what are the specific thing you learnt?
Yes, I have. When I was a kid, I heard about the story of Beethoven. When he went deaf, he composed his music by hacking the legs off his piano and sitting on the floor so he could feel the vibrations. His strong will really inspired me and I learned from him that I should never give up easily to all the defaults in my life.
How do you overcome difficulties and carry on?
Every time I run into a tricky problem, I always firstly try to figure it out by my own. I think about the problem carefully and deeply and try my best to find what on earth is the main cause of this problem. However, if I still couldn’t find the answer no matter how hard I try, I would search about it online and sometimes ask others for help.
