The UT Student Union chose the recipients based on proposals submitted by the students. We are glad to announce that the Faculty of Science and Technology award was given to prof. Ivo Leito!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>According to his students, prof. Ivo Leito is an incredibly charismatic and lively lecturer who is a role model for all. In each lecture, he gives real-life examples of how analytical chemistry can be applied to study the environment around us.\u00a0Using the flipped learning method, he constantly engages students in discussions and creates a safe environment for asking questions. It is worth noting that Professor Leito does not proceed with the lecture until he is convinced that every last person in the room has understood what he has just said.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to his dedication to educating students in the classroom, he is always available for every student outside of lecture hours. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is available 24\/7, even when he is abroad. He takes a genuine interest in the progress and development of every student. Ivo Leito also holds regular meetings with all his students planning to graduate in the spring to see if their thesis is going well and to give advice on how to advance with the task.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/ut.ee\/en\/teaching-staff-of-the-year\">Here<\/a> is more information about the award and the other recipients.<\/p>\n<p>Congratulations!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This year&#8217;s recipients of the teaching staff awards in the University of Tartu have been announced.
