The Journey to Tech Education

Junior Teaching Assistant

As part of the Junior Teaching Assistant Program I took part in teaching and tutoring students from younger years.

• Lab Assistant in Data Structures and Algorithms and other introductory programming courses.
• Teaching Assistant in Concepts of Programming Languages course.

Assistant Lecturer

In the Media Engineering and Technology Department at the GUC I taught the following courses:

• Digital System Design: Lead the student lab sessions where students learned to use verilog (a hardware description language) and developed a simple digital system on an FPGA.
• Human Computer Interaction: Guided and managed team projects to follow a user centered design process to develop a prototype for a software application.
• Computer Programming Lab: Lead the student lab sessions for building a desktop application using JAVA. The course involved introducing concepts of Object Oriented Programming as well as some software development best practices.

UX Evangelist, User Experience Coaching and Consulting

My passion for teaching and sharing knowledge made me realize that I wanted to work on enabling companies and individuals to adopt user experience design in their process and product development.

• Designed and delivered a 20 hour workshop for User Experience Design. It was delivered both independently to the public as well as part of the development and learning workshops to companies and startups in Egypt.
• Coached and consulted with companies and startups to help them adopt a user centered approach in building their products.
