Albert Einstein was born in Germany in 1879. His family later moved to Munich and then Italy. Einstein continued his education in Switerland and obtain his doctor degree in 1905. In 1903, he married Mileva Maric and had two sons and a daughter. They divorced in 1919, and Einstein remarried to his cousin, Elsa Löwenthal. Einstein died in 1955 and was buried in Princeton, New Jersey. Einstein contribution to physics has been enormous and helpful to the world, especially during WWII.
During his childhood, Einstein had suffered what is called a learning disability. He could not speak until the age of three and even as an adult, he had trouble finding the right words to say. During school, he had trouble in many subjects, especially reading and math. Most teachers considered him as a hopless child with no success for the future. However, it was later realized that Einstein is more of a visual learner than a language comprehender. Because of this ability, he was able to comprehend modern physics with relative ease.
In a way, this disorder was the reason why Einstein was looked down upon during his childhood. Yet, despite what other people think, he managed to rise above and became one of the most famous scientists in history. I find it amazing that Einstien, despite all odds against him when he was young, managed to overcome his learning disability. People with this disability have a harder time to succeed in life. I wish that we can help these people more because it is proven that they can do great things.
