Luminita Ciocaru

"I am honored to recommend Luminita, my high school IT teacher, whose guidance and mentorship have been instrumental in my journey. As the co-founder of Tekpon, a high-growth startup that raised $1M, I owe much of my success to Luminita's dedication, passion for technology, and unwavering support.

From the beginning, Luminita encouraged me to explore beyond the standard curriculum. She introduced me to concepts that would later become the foundation of my professional path. Her teaching style, always patient and insightful, made even the most challenging topics feel approachable. More than that, she fostered an environment where curiosity thrived, urging us to ask questions, seek solutions, and believe in the power of innovation.

Even though I was not one of her brightest students, she always took care of everyone equally and supported us with everything needed. The support was the most important part.

Luminita's impact goes beyond the classroom. She inspired me to pursue a career in technology, instilling values of resilience, creativity, and integrity. Her belief in my potential was a catalyst for my drive to create, build, and lead in the tech world.

I wholeheartedly recommend Luminita to any institution or organization seeking a mentor who not only teaches but transforms lives. She is an extraordinary educator whose influence I carry with me every day."
