I have always been interested in and curious about how learning occurs from different perspectives, and I am passionate about supporting students in learning effectively. As a former chemistry teacher, I recognize the significant role that teachers play in scaffolding students' learning processes and influencing their motivation to learn. To me, learning is fun, interesting, and meaningful—and that's what drives my goal as a researcher: to understand the nature of learning and how to support it from a teacher's perspective. A happy and motivated teacher can inspire their students to enjoy learning!
