My curiosity and desire to excel at new things have helped me develop a new love for math.
I was first introduced to algebra in middle school. I remember hearing rumors from the eight graders about the difficulty and daily homework in algebra class. Little did I know, I would actually loving algebra in the future. A great part of the reason why I love algebra is because; math is like a puzzle. Sudoku is a good example. To find the next number the previous number needs to be known. In math, previous concepts need to be known in order to solve the next problem. I believe math is not about just finding the correct answer, but the process of discovering.

Instead of curiosity you might try problem solving.
How do you overcome some of the difficulties that math has presented? How does this relate to your character?
