Teaching is an attitude of sharing knowledge and experience. Moreover, it is bidirectional, from the teacher to the student, but also from the student to the teacher.
The classroom is the meeting place where this exchange takes place and where gestural language is as important as verbal language.
And people are trained. And they are adults who arrive and want, need to grow.
Passion; it is a word I use: passion to learn and to commit to the profession, to be able to practice with criteria, knowledge and interest.
To make the world healthier and fairer. To reduce health inequalities.
And to see them leave, with their dreams, but also with the backpack of life well loaded with knowledge and values.
And to know that they are doing well, that they are committed people, who fight and live.
All this is for me the fact of teaching.

When I was in high school I had the opportunity to get to know the UFV through the Becas Europa (Europe Scholarships) initiative. After living this great experience, I decided to study the univeristy degree in Pharmacy at this university and I can say that it has been one of the best decisions of my life.
Throughout the five years of my university degree, I received a quality and practical training, with first-class professors, highlighting their great experience and closeness, being able to develop myself exponentially thanks to all the opportunities they have given me: going abroad to do internships in renowned research centers, acquiring more knowledge about business management and marketing thanks to my own degree, opening my mind with trips and cultural activities… All this has helped me to get to where I am now.
Currently, I work in the marketing department at the GSK Innovation Hub as a Content Expert, where I have been able to put into practice everything I have learned, which demonstrates the quality of teaching at this university to guide our professional career in our chosen sector.
