Albert Einstein was a great scientist and physicist. From his childhood to the end of his life he was interested in science because when he was young, he couldn’t explain some things which pushed him towards science. He was a true genius according to his grades and other people who noticed it and could prove it. He always went ahead of other people which made it easier and more advanced at things that would help him in the future. The push towards science came from his childhood, to the time when he worked hard in school and college, and when he worked, discovered amazing things, and how he succeeded his life.
His childhood is where he started seeing things that amazed him and. (5)When Albert was six he went to “Peterschule”, a catholic elementary school in Munich. When his mother looked at his grades, he was on the top of the class. He then moved to the Luitpold grammar school in 1888. There as time went by, the problems with teachers got more and more severe. (4) He was very slow at learning words which made his parents worry and even ask consultants. He had big questions towards simple things such as time and space that were taken as granted by adults. Even though he didn’t work or study science, he found more and more things he couldn’t explain. (1, 2, 3) For example: when he was five years old, his father had a pocket compass. What Einstein was amazed by was the invisible force pulling the needle toward north. Later in life he looked back on this moment. (1,4) Later when he was older, a wide belief that Einstein failed his math courses spread, however when someone asked him (when he was older) he laughed and said that he mastered many differential calculus and integral calculus before he was fifteen! When he was twelve, he ...

1921 moved to Berlin, married, edited a journal called Scripta Universitatis atque Bibliothecae Hierosolymitarum, the mathematical-physical section was prepared by Albert Einstein. This journal played a big role in developing the Hebrew University in Jerusalem,
Albert Einstein’s discoveries and theories have had a positively enormous effect on the world. Some of Einstein’s biggest impacting discoveries and theories are the theories of Special and General relativity, the Theory of Relativity, Brownian motion, the discovery of the photon, and Einstein’s creation of the equation E = MC^2. Perhaps Einstein’s most beneficial discovery is his formulation of E = MC^2 which is crucial for space-flight and can help today’s scientist in gathering knowledge about our universe.

When Albert Einstein was a young kid, his teachers believed that he was “too stupid to learn.” They suggested to his mother that he just skip school and start manual labor early, because he was a hopeless case. In spite of this, his mother continued to make him go to school; in addition, she also bought him a violin (24). Violin soon became one of his greatest passions, and he even stated that playing the violin was what made him intelligent. His friend, G.J. Withrow, had said that whenever Einstein had trouble figuring out an equation he would go and improvise on the violin (24).
Albert Einstein was undoubtedly one of the world’s greatest physicians and mathematicians of all time. Einstein’s theories of relativity completely changed the world and have had a huge impact on how we currently live our lives. From how we heat our homes to how we are able to use GPS navigation systems. His theories have greatly changed how we must view the world around us. His theories of relativity and his works during the world wars earned him a Nobel Prize in physics, to name one of the many he deservingly received.

Einstein: Um. O.K. Yes, as a matter of fact I did fail the Mathematical Portion of the exam. I found anther college near by, I attempted to attend I was accepted. This new place was named the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology. This new college was located in Zurich, Italy. In 1896 I started my freshman year of college. Even though I commonly missed classes due to me testing theories, and such. I passed all my examinations with the reviewing of my friends' notes; thus I graduated in 1900
