Work experience
  • KRONO study center

    Teacher

    At Krono I have been teaching adults. On the one hand it has been very nice, I think I am relatively good at it and it has been nice to take off the pressures of delivery times for a while

    On the other hand, I have lacked the feeling of creating things. While I encourage my students to pursue a technology career, for many of them the course is nothing more than a paperwork for the administration. This is not enough for me. I need not only to perform a job, I want to feel that it is useful.
