Teaching Focus

I am not teaching the course – I am teaching students! Having fourteen years of industry experience on board, I clearly understand what the industry expects from new graduates and what challenges will face new specialists in their first month of work. Thus, my teaching focus is that students will develop necessary skills in my courses that will help them become successful in their industrial career.
