About Me

I used to be an electrical engineer, but I currently work as an English teacher and I occasionally teach Arabic and French.

I have had students from over 50 countries, and meeting new people from new countries is one of the most enjoyable aspects of my job.

I am currently studying for a BSc in machine learning and AI at the university of London and I will do an MSc in computational linguistics or natural language processing afterwards.
