I believe I have the personality of a teacher because I spend almost every waking moment taking the opportunity to learn something new and prove to myself I understand it by teaching it to others.
I work as a teacher and private tutor for students who could not succeed in traditional learning environments. I currently teach creative software skills (video editing, scripting, game development), English and French Literature, CCBE (Common Core Basic English), English and French Resilience classes (Getting in shape emotionally, spiritually, physically, financially), History and Media Literacy.
我的教育学是受许多教育心理logists paired with various analytical and continental philosophers. I have a soft spot for a less abrasive methodology based on Stoicism and Socratic Maieutics in the endeavor to foster critical thinking skills. My goal is to expand people's horizons along the lines of Gardner's Model of intelligence and to help them find their reason for being (Ikigai). I like people who are passionate and follow their curiosity wherever it takes them. I have many soft skills; the most important one being listening to others with the intent to understand rather than simply to reply. In Myers-Briggs based tests, I identify with the Protagonist ENFJ personality type.
"A Protagonist (ENFJ) is a person with the Extraverted, Intuitive, Feeling, and Judging personality traits. These warm, forthright types love helping others, and they tend to have strong ideas and values. They back their perspective with the creative energy to achieve their goals.Protagonists (ENFJs) feel called to serve a greater purpose in life. Thoughtful and idealistic, these personality types strive to have a positive impact on other people and the world around them. They rarely shy away from an opportunity to do the right thing, even when doing so is far from easy."

In my spare time, I like to read and write. I've published under a few different pen names. My most recent book is called "Everywhere at the End of Time" by Pan. I am an avid reader and archivist. I maintain a virtual library community daily on an app called Discord which I also use for private lessons. The community is called To Mouseion, after the institution built for the muses in Alexandria and to store human wisdom in its vast libraries. I am also into camping, biking, meditation, composing music and competitive real time strategy video games!
