Grammar

Dear teachers, I need help with proof-reading

Q: Would you like to be as clever as Leonardo da Vinci? Why or Why not?

A: No, I would not because so many people would make me help them do many things, so I would be very busy and would not have any free time.

Could any teachers here help check if the answer is grammatically correct? Many thanks for helping!
