"I strongly believe that in the age of AI and digital media, when the ever-changing face of communication undergoes unexpected transformations, studying it becomes a core necessity to every single one of us. My goal is to cultivate media literacy, empowering students to become ethical, skilled communicators, journalists, and media producers, while also developing their ability to critically consume information. I constantly incorporate educational material from the training I received at the BBC given by London-based veteran journalists. My experience as a journalist and a fact-checker hardened my commitment to media literacy even more. I love witnessing my former students thrive in their chosen passions and pursuits."
