Best award for a teacher is happy students. Thank you, Karolin Kruuse! BTW, Vlad is also Ukrainian. Well, Ukrainian professors rule in Estonia! Good to know:-)
What are your favourite courses or subjects in the study programme? Why?
To be honest, it is quite hard to choose favourite courses or subjects. I think the faculty has done a great job in creating the curriculum and finding the professors, who really love to teach. However, I would like to bring out some of the classes. I really enjoyed Advanced Issues of Public International Law with Dr. Evhen Tsybulenko. Even though it was a difficult course, it was well structured and it gave me the knowledge to look at the current conflicts and crises with another perspective — from the stance of International Law. Because of this class, I am thinking to study Public International Law more thoroughly after my graduation, as I regard it as a foundation on which everything is based in International Relations. Secondly, I would like to bring out Lecturer Vlad Vernygora. His class Asia-Pacific Studies: New Perspectives was just amazing. I haven’t seen a more inspiring lecturer than him. While writing a research paper about Kiribati for his class, I was working on it several weeks day and night. He just makes you want to give the best of yourself in the class as he is doing exactly the same for the class. I really love when people do their work with a sincere wish to give which inspires me to do more myself.
