Are you good at learning some
things by yourself, but not others? Do you find it easy to understand art, for
example, but not maths? If you do, don’t be surprised. Everyone’s mind is
different and most people are better at some things than others. Hardly anyone
is good at everything.
Many famous people were good at
one thing but poor at others. Mozart was good at music but not very good at
maths-----he never had enough money! Einstein was good at maths and writing, he
also played the violin but most people say that he wasn’t very good at that.
Max Berlitz’s parents and
grandparents were maths teachers but he was poor at maths. He was good at
languages. He started a school that taught languages. Now many books and
thousands of schools use his ideas.
