Two mathematicians

She was our Mathematics teacher in high school. I have never seen such a dedicated teacher with that much devotion for the subject. She was always trying to find out better ways of teaching and of explaining. Always solving new problems. Absolutely relentless.

He, my father, was also a Mathematics teacher. Every evening in his tuition classes, he had a special batch of students hailing from humble households for whom there was no fees involved. He spent his entire youth in social service through various platforms.

Two mathematicians. Two fundamental virtues. Two strong influences for yours truly.
