I would like to talk about my neighbor whom I helped with his math exams. During my studies in high school, my neighbor came to me and asked if I could help him with his math exam preparations. I couldn't turn his request down because he was from a low-income family, and I realized that he couldn't afford a tutor. After I agreed, the next day we both started preparing for his exams. We spent many days sitting in front of each other solving different kinds of problems, and eventually, he got into the university he wanted as a result of his high scores in the math section of his exams. I often ask why I tutored him for free. I would say that sometimes it's good to help people without any monetary compensation because, after all, it's a good thing, and in the end, I believe I will be rewarded for all these actions in my life.
