Einstein was born on March 14, 1879 in a picturesque town known as Ulm, Germany, to Hermann and Pauline Einstein. His parents did not realize that the beautiful little boy in front of them would come up with the most brilliant theories in different scientific fields. An interesting fact about his parents was that neither of them had any concrete knowledge when it came to studying science or mathematics. During his early childhood, Einstein showed no real skills, but at the same time he was a very curious child, very detail-oriented and observing everything around him. In the early years of school, his parents were very concerned that Albert might have what we today call a "learning disability"; he only showed results in mathematics and science subjects, but did not care at all about other subjects taught in primary school. Besides school, Albert enjoyed the violin and piano during his pre-teen years. “Music was the key that helped Albert Einstein become one of the most intelligent men who ever lived. Einstein himself said that the reason he was so intelligent was because he played the violin” (Laurence O’Donnell III). Over time, he preferred to teach himself; by the time he was a teenager, he had higher knowledge of math and science than his peers. His family then decides to leave Germany for Italy, but Albert decides to stay. He was looking forward to finishing his studies in Germany and then moving with his parents. After just one semester, he found himself on his own and met family in Italy. After moving, he considered enrolling at the Swiss Polytechnic University but failed the entrance exam; the university accepted him because of his very high results in the subjects of ...... middle of article ...... that Einstein's contributions lead to an awareness of mathematics and of its results, which can be trusted until an experiment can prove the opposite. The legend of Einstein is still visible today through modern science. A hundred years have passed and the great triumphs he accomplished are still experienced. These most practical applications which are used for example; television and DVD players, remote controls, automatic door openers are just a few that can be cited as carrying Einstein's ideas. Other more complex elements also carry Einstein's theories such as nuclear energy, semiconductors, lasers, space travel and photoelectric cells. These two great theories from the early 1900s paved the way for physics and are still widely used today. Remember, Einstein is intelligent and passionate about equality and left the world with an indescribable amount of knowledge..
