My experience working as a Ph.D. student at Czech Technical
University in Prague has allowed me to serve as a
Teaching Assistant for
International Classes attended by students from
The ERASMUS program. I was
very motivated to teach the lab classes of the following
subjects: Measurements in
Engineering, and Computer
Support for Studies. This experience has provided me
with a very close interaction among multicultural
populations coming from different countries all over the
world, such as Poland,
USA, UK, France, North
Korea, Germany, India, Spain, Russia, Belgium, among others. |

Because of the above mentioned, I truly believe that the
diversity aspects
from different cultures are very important to be respected
thus to provide equal
opportunities to people with whom we
collaborate, students and colleagues alike. Accordingly, I
have always accepted and
respected cultural differences. This
characteristic has always provided me with better results
for the institution where I work since I am able to share
ideas and collaborate effectively
regardless of cultural diversity and beliefs among my
colleagues and students. Therefore, I identify myself
as a person who accepts,
understands and respects diversity, such as
spiritual, sexual orientation,
gender identity, expression and
political beliefs, I have
always kept my personal beliefs independently of my work
duties and responsibilities. In addition, I do not have any
prejudice regarding cultural, religion or ethnic backgrounds
from my colleagues at work. Personally, I am very grateful
to have been granted the opportunity to be acquainted with
all my colleagues, and students, and I think this situation
has enriched our common interactions. Also, I must say that
I consider equality as a very important aspect of my
interaction with colleagues regardless of their gender,
disability, national origin, veteran status, sex, genetic
information and
I am a person who really
appreciates sharing experiences and collaboration
with people even when there are
some generation gaps
because this makes my experience collaborating with them
more pleasant and the laboral interaction is enriched. In
addition, I also enjoy learning
and contributing whenever there are some language
or communication differences. |

I consider that I really can support the
University’s diversity
and inclusion goals, since I have had a lot
of experience with teaching and sharing my knowledge and
experiences with students and colleagues from all over the
world. Additionally, I usually
give talks, seminaries, workshops, and keynotes at
different universities that have
cultural diversity
and I have been very impressed how some students have
approached me with very valuables questions regarding my
research, and this has allowed me also to understand
their interest in science and engineering. |

|
In the same way, I am pleased to highlight that
I have been teaching, and
mentoring students as well as providing
academic gestion to all
students that have been interested in my
research topics,
or by helping my advised students in such other generalities
as the need of information about the Institution we were in
or about issues related to their current studies. Because of
that, I truly believe that
I can properly prepare students for this global
society and
being an aid in the achievement of their goals in their
professional careers.

Actually,
I am certified in since 2016,
in topics related to ensure gender equality,
diversity and human
rights. This has allowed me to avoid any
type of discrimination during any laboral interaction. This
is part of the pedagogic model certification that I have
attended to allow me teaching in my previous job, providing
me a concern of the
gender perspective. In addition to this
subject, my certification includes topics related to learning-teaching
strategies,
didactic planning,
educative model of my
current affiliation,
development of teaching
abilities,
equality and discrimination,
integral evaluation,
computational
technologies, and
didactic materials. |
