Correction:
Ludwig van Beethoven is considered a musical genius because,
despite he was deaf, he created incredible symphonies in his generation.
He began to show interest in music at the age of 9 and had the
great support of his father. Beethoven's teachers were renowned
artists such as Haydn and Antonio Salieri, they always noticed
that Beethoven had impressive skills with the piano that over
time he was perfecting. In the year 1815, he became totally
deaf and fell into depression, in spite of this, at that time
he created his greatest works, becoming one of the greatest
pianists and composers of his generation and because he was
very persistent and with a lot of work he became very successful.
This shows that Beethoven is one of the best-known composers
and musicians in the world and one of the most important in history.

My cousin Nicole is a person who never gives up despite her disability, and tries to go
ahead in her life. She became deaf due to problems inside her head when she was in
the fourth degree of high school. She can't assimilate it. At that time, she felt miserable
and defeated, thinking she was incapable of doing anything even she believed that
finishing school could be impossible. Nevertheless, Nicole was able to finish middle
school without any problem. In the beginning, she was ashamed and had some
obstacles to communicating and interacting with people. Together with the support of
her mother, Nicole found different ways but a little bit laborious to talk with people,
such as reading the lips, sending messages and notes. Last year, she decided to
continue with her studies, and Nicole started to take Bakery classes. In five years,
Nicole plans to open a bakery. Currently, Nicole is learning sign language. She even
practices with people that have this problem too. Her family is yearning to go to
another country so that Nicole can have an operation that can help her. That's why I
believe she is one of the strongest people I know. I don't have to mention what else
she does, is obvious how proud I'm of her.
