She became interested in mathematics at a very young age, and without any sort of formal education or training became one of the greatest mathematicians in history (Swift). Germain fought against gender stereotypes during her life and fought for recognition as a female mathematician (Swift). Throughout her life, Germain refused…

Every teacher has their own philosophy on children and teaching within the early years. This philosophy is based around their beliefs and values, research and personal experience about children and the way they learn and the role of their educators. It is important that a teacher is clear on their philosophy, as they will draw on it for all that they do.(Arthur, Beecher, Death, Dockett& Farmer, 2012).

Each party is allocated seats in proportion to the number of votes it receives, using the party-determined ranking order. In open list the voters may vote, depending…
