      The amount of freedom I have in choosing what I want to focus on. Of course we all need to do certain things, teaching, writing reports, etc. But overall, I get to decide when I work (as long as the work is done, noone minds), whether I spend all day in the lab or reading about a new method, and how I do things.

      There are so many great things about being a Scientist.
      You get to travel to tell people about your work,perform exciting experiemnts in the lab, you learn so many new things, interact with other scientist, use various equipment in the lab and so many others things.

      What I like the most is the dept of knowledge gained.

      I love the amount of freedom and flexibility I have with my schedule, as well as the variety of things I get to do. I have some computer/desk work, but I also get to work in a molecular lab and outside in the Scottish highlands for field work!

      The absolute best thing about being a Minecraft Education UK Ambassador is the opportunity to connect with and learn from a global community of passionate educators who are all exploring innovative ways to make learning fun and engaging using Minecraft. You get to share your own creative ideas and see how others are transforming their classrooms, gaining inspiration and building friendships with like-minded people who believe in the power of game-based learning. I often get early access to new features and opportunities as well which is always a plus.

      I would say its the fact that your work has the potential to impact thousands of people and sometimes even more. Science has the potential to do good and bad, especially technology.
