Silicon has been a great contributor in developing my career. I have honed my team skills, responsibility, and time management to a whole new level. In those three years, I received a lot of help from subject teachers, even when they were not assigned to teach our batch. Their teaching skills were excellent. Apart from that, I learned professionalism and the hunger to achieve more. Overall, it was an exciting and challenging journey for me at the campus.
