Today is the day. The day that feels so unreal and distant, that you don’t even think about it. Until you turn 29. Then, on that day, you realize the next year you’ll be 30. I should say that it feels better than I expected though. Some people experience the…

Let’s make a parallel analysis of both the participants in education and the environment where…

Are you a “people oriented” or a “goal oriented” person? How many times have you heard this question? And how many times did you try to actually cover both parts when attempting to answer it? Or at least try to sound not too “not-at-all-people-oriented” person or not too “all-I-care-about-is-results” person…
