Einstein’s Early Education

(1) Albert Einstein was born in Ulm, Germany, in 1879. (2) Because he
learned to speak at a late age, his parents feared that he was retarded.
(3) Modern observers prefer saying that he was a daydreamer.
(4) When he was 5 years old, Einstein began to attend a Catholic
school. (5) One instructor was especially critical of his abilities and told
his parents that it did not matter what field young Albert chose because
he would not succeed in it. (6) In 1889, Einstein transferred to a very
strict German school called the Luitpold Gymnasium. (7) The rigid
structure forced Einstein to distrust authority and become skeptical.
(8) At age 12, Einstein picked up a mathematics textbook and began
teaching himself geometry. (9) By 1894, Einstein’s father’s business
had failed to prosper, and the family moved to Italy.
(10) Einstein, however, remained behind and began feeling lonely and
unhappy. (11) Consequently, he paid less attention to his studies and
was finally asked by one of the teachers to leave. (12) He joined his
family in Italy but was not able to matriculate at a university because he
did not have a diploma. (13) When he heard that a diploma was not
necessary to enter at the Swiss Polytechnique Institute in Zurich, he
decided to apply. (14) Einstein traveled to Switzerland but did not pass the entrance examination. (15) He was not prepared well enough in biology and
languages, so he enrolled in the Gymnasium at Aarau to prepare
himself in his weaker subjects. (16) Albert enjoyed studying in Aarau
more than at the Luitpold Gymnasium because the teachers wanted to
teach students how to think. (17) He took the exam again and was
finally permitted to matriculate into a four-year program. (18) Einstein
did not excel during these years at the Institute. (19) In fact, he rarely
attended the lectures. (20) He read his books at home and borrowed
his classmates’ notes to pass tests. (21) When Einstein graduated in 1900, he failed to obtain a position at the Institute. (22) His professors did not intend to reward Einstein’s lackadaisical attitude toward classes with a position. (23) Because he
did not get an academic appointment, he worked at the Swiss Patent
Office. (24) He worked there for several years until he was offered an
appointment as Associate Professor of Physics at the University of
Zurich. (25) It was there that Einstein’s revolutionary theories of space-time began to take hold and threatened to destroy the reputations of
other colleagues who had built their careers on Newton’s ideas of a
clockwork universe.
