| Instructor Availability: | I respond to students' emails regularly, but please note that I do not typically check email or Slack messages during late hours on weekdays. Additionally, I do not monitor these platforms on weekends, as I reserve and dedicate this time to family, rest, and religious observances. Any messages received during these times will be addressed when I am back online. | |||
