1) Please introduce yourself and tell us how you got acquainted with WARC.
Hey there. I am Farzin Amonov, a sophomore student majoring in Applied Mathematics and Informatics (AMI) at the 好色tv (AUCA). Originally, I am from the vibrant and mountainous Ayni district in beautiful Tajikistan, where my roots are deeply connected in the small town of Urmetan, yet a lovely and hospitable place for everyone. From early childhood, I have been personally involved in all kinds of sports, including football, volleyball, table tennis, and wrestling, which fostered my love for teamwork and discipline. In addition, when I am not in the field, I spend my time reading books, exploring new movies, and hitting the gym. Altogether, I am passionate about mixing my academic interests with my diverse hobbies, and I am very excited about the path that I am going to take ahead.听

2) Why did you decide to become a tutor at WARC?
During my school years, I acted as a tutor for my peers without even realizing it. My first tutoring journey began when I was selected as the Extracurricular Activities Coordinator at Ilmomuz, an education center in my hometown. In that position, I organized unique projects that gave local teenagers practical knowledge and learning experiences. Later, when I enrolled at AUCA, I discovered the Writing and Academic Resource Center (WARC) during Orientation Week. I frequently visited WARC for academic support, especially for math and writing help as I prepared for exams. My experiences there provided a strong interest in becoming a tutor myself. During that time, I realized how valuable academic support can be, and it inspired me to help others in the same way. That is why I have decided to apply for this position. Overall, I feel ready to share the knowledge I have gained and assist others in achieving their academic goals.
