TESTIMONIALS
“Thank you for being so hard on me when I was your student. I used to believe my technical skills were all I needed to break into my field, but I now understand I need so much more than just interesting coding projects and math to reach my full potential as an engineer. Your instruction regarding resumes and interviews gave me the professional people skills I needed to earn this internship, and your instruction on professional reports to the "higher ups" is allowing my team and me to stand out to our superiors. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to become the best version of myself.”

"You are quite simply the best professor and mentor that I have ever had. I am so grateful for your invaluable instruction and encouragement, but most of all I am grateful that you pushed me to expect more from myself. Consequently, my communication skills have reached a level which I would have thought was unattainable prior to taking your class. I am now able to confidently navigate professional environments, and my experience working with you has taught me to never settle for anything less than my best efforts."

“If I had not had you as my teacher this semester, my life would be incredibly different. I’m not saying it would be bad – but you opened my eyes to what I could be, what I could do, in a way that I’ve never thought possible. You took a kid from Penrith and made her want to see the world and beyond.
I still remember your advice in the Zoom meeting. You said very detailly and instructively. You would try many ways to inspire my brainstorm, stimulate my creative inspiration. In each assignment, you wrote a constructive comment generously, and it made me learn a lot. And your friendly smile is like encouragement, and it's my motivation for persistence.
You have changed my learning aspect; I wouldn't be where I am today without you. Your encouragement and persistence in my junior years have taught me how to get success, and it’s all down to me. I am capable, but it will take hard work and lots of dedication.
Thank you.”
