Summary
I’ve been involved in high school and college-level education for over 10 years in Europe and Asia. My expertise lies in economics and business studies but as an enthusiast and lifelong learner myself, I am interested and taught other humanities courses as well. I strongly believe that a teacher’s main objective should be raising the interest and achievements of learners to be well-rounded and prepared for further education and life. Therefore, I focus on intrinsic motivation and social-emotional learning practices. You can reach me on my personal email: tom.maracsko@gmail.com
