Teaching

“You must not let anyone define your limits because of where you come from. Your only limit is your soul.”

– Gusteau (Ratatouille)

Teaching is one of the most important parts of being a researcher. Helping the next generation of scientists understand the universe, while learning from the students’ different perspectives, is very rewarding. I have had the opportunity to be involved in both teaching and supervising activities at different levels, and I have taken a university pedagogy course to expand my teaching abilities.
