“One of the biggest realizations I gained from SotA was that I have the ability to teach the things I know. Attending the first year and teaching gas classes to my peers was a really empowering development that encouraged me to go back home and host workshops and then come back the next year and teach a class as a faculty member. The non-hierarchal community that SotA fosters really enables that feeling: anyone can step up in an educational position and help others to learn and grow.”
