TEACHING PHILOSOPHY
I am a graduate of a foreign Medical School with a degree in Internal
Medicine and teaching experience abroad and in the U.S.A. Through my
comprehensive education and exposure to different work environments, I
have gained extensive knowledge in the fields of science, management, and
modern technology. It is my strong desire to share this knowledge with the
new generation of professionals.
My passion for teaching goes hand in hand with my deep interest in research.
It is my desire to make research a pleasant, satisfying and unforgettable
experience for my students, and I believe in expanding the areas of scientific
interest and cross-cultural scientific information exchange.
I am an admirer of solid work ethics, and have the desire to perform any task
to the best of my abilities and in the interest of the ones I teach. I will make
any effort to develop a strong connection with my students, and to instill in
them love for knowledge and the willingness to achieve high academic goals.
In my opinion, exposure to a goal-oriented program, as part of a complex
high-level education system, is the path to a successful professional career
and of a meaningful and prosperous life. A good education is the most potent
ingredient for success – and it is success, that I wish for my students.
On a personal note, as a physician turned teacher, I must admit that I enjoy
making a difference in my students’ lives not by improving their physical, but
their intellectual condition. By accomplishing this, my students’ achievements
become my achievements. I find this to be “the joy of teaching”.
Medical Doctor specialized in internal medicine with experience in health care
management, statistical studies, laboratory management and teaching.
Creative problem solver, who has the ability to implement interdisciplinary
research programs, and to conduct teaching assignments competently.
Greatly interested in scientific research and working with students.
