    “The mediocre teacher tells. The good teacher explains. The superior teacherdemonstrates. The great teacher inspires.”

    William Arthur Ward

    I have no greater satisfaction than to see my students become excellent veterinarians who rise above their teachers. This makes me feel that, in collaboration with my colleagues, I successfully contribute to the education of my students for a better future for both the profession and society.
