I am a retired professor, and my career path has not always been easy. My biggest setback was failing my PhD at the University of Cambridge many years ago.
But I did not give up, and finally I got my PhD and gained academic recognition.
Now, though, I want to share what I have learned from a lifetime of study and university teaching. And, of course, I want to keep on learning! Please join me, and letβs learn and grow together.
