Working in the capacity as a Head Tutor in a large cohort, Philip Le, a colleague, possesses impeccable organisational and management skills. He is not only a great team leader but also an outstanding academic. His academic rigour, experience with various systems and ability to be creative is invaluable.

I am an introverted person, but with the help of Philip, I was able to speak up in his class. He always gives everyone an equal chance and encourages everyone.

Overall, Philip was able to make the class a place where I felt comfortable sharing my thoughts. I found his comments to be greatly insightful and helpful for my personal reflections and improvement.
