My achievement
I was in the 9th standard where Miss Caroline used to take our tuitions for Algebra. I was weak in the subject. Just before our first term exams could begin Fr.Leslie told us that he would give us a test. If we passed the test we could continue with Miss Caroline's tuitions but if we failed he would teach us but with a fine of Rs 100 and we would have to continue with Miss Caroline at the same time. If we got above 60 % in the first term exams in the paper then he would refund our Rs. 100 back but keep the Rs. 50. So I gave the test and failed. Then he began teaching us. I liked the way he taught us. Every study time I spent studying only one subject and that was Algebra. The only reason being I wanted my Rs. 100 back. On my first term Algebra paper I got 48 out of 75 marks that makes exactly 64 p.c. Fr. Leslie asked me twice both in the study hall and the refectory how much did I score in my paper and I said 64. One fine Sunday evening during the tea break in the refectory Fr. Leslie gave me my Rs. 100 back and told me to give it to my mom. I gave it to her and she said she did not have any money and that it would come in handy. That was one of my achievements.
