Why I am available as a mentor for the MCI Mentoring Program

I volunteered as a mentor because I want to support students who are struggling with various things during their studies. I didn't have an easy time studying either and had to overcome various things, I think I am a good motivator for students who are thinking about quitting their studies. I would also like to encourage them to try something new, just like I dared to move to Switzerland.

My wisdom/my motto

Success is not easy to achieve. If you choose the easier path, the result will be correspondingly easy. But remember, the best view comes after the hardest climb. Choose the difficult path, take the plunge and leave your comfort zone. The results that follow will be amazing.

When I look back at my time at MCI...

I am very proud of the rollercoaster ride I experienced. This journey was characterized by impressive highlights, such as the high-quality education at MCI, the unforgettable moments with my fellow students in the lectures, in the lab and the various celebrations, as well as the sense of achievement from passing the exams. At the same time, however, I cannot hide the low points. The challenges of the exams, the need for self-management and homesickness have put me to the test. But I realize that these lows were an important part of this valuable experience and made the highs so worthwhile. I am grateful for every stage of this journey and firmly believe that it has made me the person I am today.
