For me, the biggest takeaway from the Cambridge summer school was not just the deeper academic insights but also the experience of completing a group project and the boost in confidence for each of us. In class, we engaged in active discussions; after class, we explored ideas together. These invaluable experiences have become a significant and unforgettable part of my life’s journey.

The professors at Cambridge captivated me with their unique charisma and engaging teaching styles. Their classrooms were dynamic and interactive, built on the philosophy that “interaction is king.” They understood that the transmission of knowledge is not merely a one-way infusion but rather a process of intellectual collision and stimulation. Through group discussions, real-time Q&A, and various interactive methods, they ensured that every student became the protagonist of the class rather than a passive listener. One of the most memorable moments was when a professor used the exchange of letters between Romeo and Juliet as an analogy to explain blockchain concepts. This vivid storytelling helped us grasp key features such as decentralization, distributed ledgers, and encryption, making an abstract topic much more accessible.
