Teaching and speaking
Teaching and lecturing is one of the quintessential and most rewarding virtues of each academician. Sharing the knowledge and expertise which were forwarded to me by my mentors and teachers with as many people as possible is a sine qua non. Adapted from a quote from Emerson my academic philosophy is to win the respect and affection of children and their parents, to earn the appreciation of honest critics and colleagues, to find the best in others, to continuously search for new knowledge and to share this knowledge with my friends and colleagues to help children to breathe easier, this is to have succeeded.
