I would like to talk about a person who immediately springs from mind and my teachers, about 100, 80, and several reasons why I chose this particular person, but the main one is that he has had a significant impact on me, especially in terms of problem solving. As far as I can remember, I first met him about 4 years ago when I entered my skills school. At the time I was a student who sometimes struggles with difficult mess problems and I didn’t realize how much I could learn from him. What makes him particularly special in his ability to find simple and creative solutions to complicated problems. Another thing worth mentioning is that he always encourages his students to think independently. On top of that, he explains difficult concepts in a clear and understandable way. What really stands out about him is his clever approach to solving problems, to give you a specific example. I remember when our class was struggling with complicated math questions and that seemed almost impossible to solve. At that moment I felt really impressed because I realized that sometimes the smart solution is not the most complicated one but the simplest and most effective one. Looking back I realized that this experience taught me to think logically, say, color and pressure and look at problems from different angles. All in all, I am genuinely glad that I got to know this person because he has inspired me to become a better problem solver.
