Hi, I'm Ashton

About me

Possibly my best (or possibly worst) feature is that I'm permanently dissatisfied with my very own understanding.

This may be why I've shown a certain skill for maths and physics. Merely understanding is never ever adequate for me; I should at least attempt to rigorously understand the reasoning behind the mathematics I do, and then, take my expertise to its limitations. Profusely asking about the reason something is the way it is, maybe to the annoyance of my lecturers, is something I'm compelled to do. I, along with numerous others, find this Socratic approach of discovering as well as training to be extremely beneficial in building a fundamental understanding of maths and physics from fundamental concepts, as well as I endeavour to enlighten in precisely this way.

I wish I could imbue students with my extreme love of mathematics and physics or, at the minimum, disclose the subjects as far less daunting than they appear. Normally not everyone is a mathematician, and various minds find out at various rates, nonetheless I will intend to leave a lasting and advantageous impression.
