Hi, I'm Ashton

About myself

Perhaps my best (or maybe worst) characteristic is that I'm eternally dissatisfied with my own knowledge.

This might be why I have actually shown a certain skill for mathematics as well as physics. Merely understanding is never ever sufficient for me; I need to at least try to carefully comprehend the reasoning behind the mathematics I do, and after that, take my knowledge to its limitations. Profusely asking about the reason something is the way it is, perhaps to the inconvenience of my speakers, is something I'm forced to do. I, in addition to many others, find this Socratic technique of understanding and mentor to be extremely valuable in constructing a fundamental understanding of maths and physics from standard concepts, and I endeavour to educate in specifically this fashion.

I hope I can encourage students with my extreme love of maths and physics or, at least, expose the subjects as far less daunting than they show up. Normally not everybody is a mathematician, and also different minds learn at various rates, nevertheless I will certainly intend to leave an enduring and beneficial impression.
