Question:

I know a famous chemist called John Dalton taught you. Why was he famous and is that why you’re such a good scientist too?

Answer:

John Dalton was indeed a great scientist. He helped us understand the idea of atoms and how they make molecules. However, the second part of your question is interesting. I think having a good teacher is important but it’s also important to be interested in the subject and to work very hard at it. After all, Dalton also taught my brother and he became a musician.
