"Give me a place to stand and I will move the earth"-Archimedes of Syracus. This ingenious quote by the pioneer of `the exhaustion method`, is a prevalent and an `adrenalin-pumping` topic in calculus, due to its complexity in solving. I am greatly inspired by this, as I have used his words as a foundation to which I am motivated and persevering.

I believe students should use this quote as a basis for motivation when studying Mathematics, as for me, it implies that anyone can excel or "move the earth", which makes a difference.

Mathematics is not just a subject for me. I live, breathe and take pleasure in tackling challenging sums. Furthermore, assisting others in their own understanding of the subject.

I have learnt to apply mathematical logic to economic theories, hence developed my own opinions on Macro-economic approaches.

As a Keynsian junior economist, I highly believe that a calculative approach, and proactive approach by the government, may encourage further integration of communities, may cause spending, which may lead to injection in the circular flow of income. Keen to take an active part in the world of business, at 13 I obtained my first volunteering job, where I got to assist customers in an established charity shop -Save the children. I learnt the importance of interpersonal skills, as I had to work with a variety of age groups and backgrounds. This has greatly inspired me to reach out to various groups of pupils (that I tutor) also fully embrace that all students have unique learning styles, and those should be catered to for students to maximise their success.
