Science, technology, and engineering are rapidly evolving fields in the modern world. The goal of every teacher is to teach children to think creatively, make decisions, apply their acquired knowledge in life, and create and innovate for the betterment of humanity. The iGEM competition embodies these principles, where each child, using their own knowledge and experience, collaborates with others to create new solutions to existing problems. Therefore, my life motto is "Create, experiment, explore, and grow."

"We find joy in discovering the truth. But if there is no joy, it means that we are only acquainted with the truth but have not truly grasped it." This motto guides me as I work with students who are striving to understand science and make small discoveries. The iGEM competition helps students acquire practical skills by conducting various research in laboratories, confirming or disproving their own hypotheses. Working in research labs under the guidance of experienced professors and researchers, students gain invaluable experience. Most importantly, students come to understand that sometimes, failures, revisiting mistakes, and repeated efforts lead to great success and discoveries.
