My name is Aada, I’m now starting my second year and I’ll be studying theoretical physics. I’m going to be tutoring exchange students.
2. What was your latest year at university like, was it up to your expectations?
My latest year at uni was both amazing and horrible. I had a great time and I loved studying physics and of course the student lifestyle and my life in general. However, I was also extremely stressed out most of the time and was behind in about all of my courses. So it was exactly what I expected my first year to go 😀

My best tips are: turning in at least something is always better than nothing and seeing your friends almost everyday can really make life feel easier.
4. Fun fact about yourself or something else?
I can crochet surprisingly charming and attractive cat beanies.

Hi, my name is Joona Cornér. I’ve been studying meteorology for five years and am currently finishing my master’s. I will tutor new master’s students for the second time now.
2. What was your latest year at university like, was it up to your expectations?
The last study year was pretty busy for me since I also worked the whole year and as a result did not manage to graduate as was the plan. Nevertheless, I enjoyed it a lot.
3. Tips or advice for new students in the coming year?
Plan your studies carefully since in some programmes a few courses are offered only every other year. However, it is good to have some flexibility in your study plan and not make it too full.
4. Fun fact about yourself or something else?
The word tutor comes from the Latin word tueor which means to ”watch over, look at”.
