About Me

I am a graduate of Walden University. I received my Doctoral degree in Business Administration with a focus on Healthcare Management. I attended the University of Maryland as a graduate student, and received my Master degree in Biotechnology Management and attended the University of Jordan as an undergraduate student and received my Bachelor degree in Science/ Agricultural Engineering. I worked with graduate students as dissertations editor and methodologist for the last four years. I also have a strong ongoing dialogue with my students as they find their way in this world with intelligent minds. I am a firm believer in promoting discussion of established and new concepts of teaches and learning from my students as they learn what I have to teach them. I worked with graduate and undergraduate students for the last six years teaching (The Principles of Management, Leadership, Change Management, Business process analysis, Healthcare policies and Economics, Data Analysis and Financial decision-making).I am passionate about the business field, and I aim at making students share that passion. My teaching is not limited to transferring textbook knowledge, but rather includes many recent supplementary readings from academic journals so students can explore topics in more detail. I actively seek feedback from students to improve my teaching and to check whether students have mastered the concepts discussed in the lectures. I support my teaching with downloadable PowerPoint slides, videos, computer-based simulations, handouts, supplemental readings and links to relevant web resources. My goal as an educator is to be a role model. I want to cultivate open minds, the knowledge and ability to look at the world critically, and students??? belief in their capacity to make positive contributions to society

Q&A with Dr.

I believe that each person is a unique individual who needs a secure, caring, and stimulating atmosphere in which to grow and mature emotionally, intellectually, physically, and socially. It is my desire as an educator to help students meet their fullest potential in these areas by providing an environment that is safe, supports risk-taking, and invites a sharing of ideas. There are three elements that I believe are conducive to establishing such an environment, (1) the educator acting as a guide, (2) allowing the student's natural curiosity to direct his/her learning, and (3) promoting respect for all things and all people. When the educator's role is to guide, providing access to information rather than acting as the primary source of information, the students' search for knowledge is met as they learn to find answers to their questions. For students to construct knowledge, they need the opportunity to discover for themselves and practice skills in authentic situations. Providing students access to hands-on activities and allowing adequate time and space to use materials that reinforce the lesson being studied creates an opportunity for individual discovery and construction of knowledge to occur. Equally important to self-discovery is having the opportunity to study things that are meaningful and relevant to one's life and interests. Developing a curriculum around student interests fosters intrinsic motivation and stimulates the passion to learn. One way to take learning in a direction relevant to student interest is to invite student dialogue about the lessons and units of study. Given the opportunity for input, students generate ideas and set goals that make for much richer activities than I could have created or imagined myself. When students have ownership in the curriculum, they are motivated to work hard and master the skills necessary to reach their goals. Helping students to develop a deep love and respect for themselves, others, and their environment occurs through an open sharing of ideas and a sensible approach to discipline. When the voice of each student is heard, and environment evolves where students feel free to express themselves. Class meetings are one way to encourage such dialogue. I believe children have greater respect for their teachers, their peers, and the lessons presented when they feel safe and sure of what is expected of them. In setting fair and consistent rules initially and stating the importance of every activity, students are shown respect for their presence and time. In turn, they learn to respect themselves, others, and their environment. For myself, teaching provides an opportunity for continual learning and growth. One of my hopes as an educator is to instill a love of learning in my students, as I share my passion for learning with them. I feel there is a need for compassionate, strong, and dedicated individuals who are excited about working with children. In our competitive society, it is important for students to not only receive a solid education but to work with someone who is aware of and sensitive to their individual needs. I am such a person and will always strive to be the best educator that I can be.
