Male Female

I remember a long time ago when I was in high school, I had a math teacher who was really nice. I was very interested in math because I was good with numbers. I remember that she gave us a math exercise, and I finished my exercise before my classmates. She asked me to help some classmates because my explanation might help them more than hers at that moment. I remember my colleague, his name is Nivaldo, and he had a lot of difficulty with calculations. I could explain to him how to find the results, and to my surprise, he learned it very well. The subject was about graphs. We had to make some calculations and then plot the results on the graph. The challenge he faced was that he couldn't understand negative and positive numbers, and he didn't know where to place the points on the graph. I felt really good; I felt happiness because I could help him with something that was so simple for me but wasn't for him.
