• 1) When did you develop an interest in technology? Could you tell us about your first experience using a computer?

  I developed an interest in technology in 2022 and have been expanding my knowledge ever since. That was when I first started using a relative's computer extensively.

• 2) What is the technological evolution that has marked you the most, and what do you believe will be a turning point in this field?

  Definitely web and app development. It's how I share my knowledge and also how I continue to learn and grow in the field.

• 3) Please share more about your specialty, your interest in it, and, more broadly, its importance in the field of technology.

  At the moment, my interests span across a few different fields rather than just one. My specialty is helping beginners understand the fundamentals of these areas. This is incredibly important because, as technology continues to evolve, having a solid understanding of the basics forms a strong foundation for future learning.

• 4) Do so-called 'visionaries', such as Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, and Mark Zuckerberg inspire you, or do you have other role models?

  These visionaries have definitely influenced my thinking and approach in many ways. However, my greatest role models are people closer to me-those I've personally seen face and overcome challenges with resilience and hope. They are the ones who continually inspire me to grow and improve.

• 5) Could you share an anecdote related to your student days?

  I wouldn't call it a traditional anecdote, but I often reflect on the late, stressful nights spent struggling with concepts I can now teach to others. It brings me joy to know how far I've come and that I can now help others on the same journey.

• 6) What would you say to someone who is tech-averse and uncomfortable in front of a screen?

  Getting started is often the hardest part. But with time, using a computer and being in front of a screen becomes second nature. As for being on camera, the great thing about screens is that you can choose to turn your camera off. That's how I conduct my lessons-not only does it improve video and audio quality, but it also ensures privacy and comfort.

• 7) Do you have any other passions - related or unrelated to computers and IT?

  Last year, I began pursuing my passion for game development. The journey is long, but being a constant learner makes me a better tutor. I never stop learning, and I never forget the challenges and joys that come with it.

• 8) What makes you a Superprof (one that artificial intelligence could never replace)?

  I tailor my curriculum to meet each student's specific needs and make my lessons as interactive as possible. I ensure that students play an active role in their own learning, which helps them retain concepts more effectively. That human connection and adaptability are something AI can't fully replicate.
