      Well that’s a tough one, I did like learning but there were a lot of subjects I didn’t like or just found boring! Learning is finding things out, making mistakes, experiencing things its not just a teacher at the top of a class. Humans all LOVE to learn some just love to learn different things and in different ways.

      Similar here! I love learning most of the subjects but there was just some that were too boring for me. Anyway, I believe that school is a good place to exercise your capacity to do hard work and you still need to work hard even if it is boring.

      Being a scientist is nice because you can chase the questions that you find interesting, but anyway, from time to time you need to complete a part of it that you don’t enjoy and for that use your capacity to do hard work.

      I think in general I can say that yes, I did like learning! I think most people have certain subject they like more than others, like Stephen said. For me my least favourite subject was probably French, I’ve never been great with learning languages, but I still worked hard at it! I think the main thing with learning anything is to always feel like you’ve tried your best – then you will be happy with yourself.
