A few words from Michał, JAVA University Trainer
“I’ve been working with coffee for 9 years. I enjoy breaking conventions and encouraging experimentation — inspiring others and showing different possibilities.
During training sessions, what matters most to me is effectiveness, created by sharing knowledge in an accessible way and in the most relaxed atmosphere possible — because we learn best when we’re having fun.”
