One of the most fascinating memories I have about teaching dates back five years when I decided to teach a programming language to my roommate. It was a great experience for me as I worked for a, uh, major tech company in my country focused on technology. Over the years, uh, I have learned many program languages, but Python and PHP stand out as the most useful to me. Actually, I am currently working with these languages and have became nearly and expert in them after a while. My friend, uh, which was also my roommate, uh, asked me to teach him one of these languages. So I decided to teach him Python because it is a popular and very useful worldwide today. My training lasted for about five weeks before he was ready to earn his certificate after passing the exam. This experience made me more of an expert and it helped me improve my skills in my position at the company. Uh, I believe that everyone who knows something helpful should share it with others, uh, as this not only helps others, but also improves their own skill.
