Can someone give me some feedback or edit my prompt? please!!

Prompt 1:What is your intended major? Discuss how your interest in the subject developed and describe any experience you have had in the field - such as volunteer work, internships and employment, participation in student organizations and activities - and what you have gained from your involvement.

My intended major is Mathematics. For a very long time, I couldn't decide what field I should choose to work in. My interest in this subject began only a while ago. It was after I took calculus two. So, to see if my interest would increase, I decided to take Differentiable Equations. In this class was the first time that I ever saw matrices. I was always excited to solve them because for me it was like playing a game. The matrix reminded me of my favorite game Sudoku. In the game, Sudoku, I had to make each row, column, and box contains numbers from one to nine. Well, solving matrices was somewhat similar but not exact. In order to solve a matrix, I had to make the diagonal would consist of all ones and the lower and upper triangles to consist of all zeros. Well, it was a bit harder than just playing a game but I did not really mind. So, every single time I went to this class, I was always trilled, waiting what else the teacher can show us that can be as exciting as matrices. After this class, I decided that I should take all the possible math classes available to us on our campus and that is exactly what I did. I am found of math because a simple unsolved equation invites me to crack it. Finding new solutions to problems only strengthens my interest in mathematics.

I cannot really say that I never had any experience with mathematics because math is every day in our lives. I use it when planting, cooking, playing music, games and counting money. Also, I had some experience teaching mathematics to my little disabled sister. She has a hard time remembering so it was kind of difficult to teach her. We usually played a game called Monopoly, and I always forced her count all the money. After some time, she was able to add and subtract. I liked looking at her when she got the right answer because her face always shone with excitement and happiness. I could not believe it that helping her understand mathematics would make her very happy. Therefore, I want to help people learn and understand math. Because no matter who this person is, there is always an approach of how one can gain knowledge of mathematics. Consequently, I want to peruse this major because I feel that I am doing something good.

help will be very much appreciated!!!!

Try to use better sentence structure, because some parts are difficult to read. You also introduce many new ideas in your conclusion.
