Bio
I am an enthusiastic person with a curious mind and a love for learning. I am passionate about things I care about and find great value in sharing that passion with others.
I have experience in leadership roles, and I have always enjoyed explaining concepts to peers. I look at the "bigger picture" when it comes to learning, because I believe it's important not only to understand what you are learning, but also why it's valuable for you to do so. My approach to teaching someone is never to belittle them - I aim to supportively encourage them to reach their potential.
