Greek is my native language, and I also speak English and German. Through my academic studies, I became familiar with Arabic and Chinese as well, enriching, in this way, my multilingual and intercultural background. Since 2021, I have been a member of the research group \u201cVolos Linguistic Landscape Research Group\u201d (VLLRG), through which I was introduced to the world of research, teaching, and education. In 2023, I participated as a volunteer\/researcher in the research project ACTinPRISON \u2013 &#8220;Interaction matters: Research on the development of alternative curricular experiences for young prisoners and prospective teachers\u201d, which marked a turning point in my journey. During the same period, I was actively involved as a lead instructor in a shelter for unaccompanied minors in Volos, where I piloted the implementation of an innovative teaching material. Since 2024 and up to the present, I have been a member of the \u201cAmalinoglossa\u201d, which promotes the learning and dissemination of the Romani language. Looking ahead to 2025, I am excited to embrace a new professional identity\u2014that of a trainer at EPANODOS (Legal Entity of Private Law), supporting the development of language literacy among Arabic- and Turkish-speaking students. At the same time, I remain an active volunteer in correctional facilities, mainly in the region of Magnesia. Beyond the fascinating world of learning, I am also involved\u2014on an amateur level\u2014in digital creation, including image design, logos, posters, and short video production. If I were to summarize the essence of my journey so far in one sentence, it would be this: \u201cBelieve it or not. RESEARCH.\u201d because judgement gains depth only when it is grounded in knowledge.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":286,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"class_list":["post-310","omada","type-omada","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/rhizoeduscapes.gdia.uth.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/omada\/310","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/rhizoeduscapes.gdia.uth.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/omada"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/rhizoeduscapes.gdia.uth.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/omada"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rhizoeduscapes.gdia.uth.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/286"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/rhizoeduscapes.gdia.uth.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=310"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
