I am currently a Masters Student at the University of Padua, with experience as mathematics and science teacher for young students

As a mathematics teacher, my journey has been both challenging and rewarding. Standing before a classroom of eager yet sometimes apprehensive students, I’ve learned that patience and clarity are key. I adapted by using real-world examples, like calculating discounts or designing shapes, to make lessons relatable. The breakthrough moments were the best: a struggling student solving a quadratic equation, their face lighting up with pride. Of course, there were hurdles—disengaged learners or tricky topics like calculus tested my creativity. I leaned on interactive tools, group work, and humor to keep the energy alive. Teaching math isn’t just about numbers; it’s about building confidence and problem-solving skills. Watching students grow, from hesitant to capable, has been the true reward of this experience.
