If you are struggling with your studies or to understand concepts for your exams you can ask me. I have a lot of material available such as medical books, videos, slides and other resources. I work a lot with illustrations and screen sharing to explain concepts to students. Also, my courses are structured and I provide tips on how to achieve best performance during exams auto study tips as well.
I am now an experienced medical student finishing off my theoretical part and I totally understand your struggles. If you feel like I can help you please feel free to drop a message. I will teach you from different perspectives and a lot of comprehension. There are no weird questions to me. As most subjects flow into each other, I focus on clinical diseases or blocks of systems I.e cardiology would be focusing on development, physiology, anatomy, clinical pictures with cases etc. It’s all intertwined and hence truly fun to teach. I can adapt my courses to individuals with very specific questions and offer long term support.

My courses include biology, anatomy, and physiology, which are essential subjects for health science students, as they help them understand the body's structure and functions in a scientific and accurate manner.

I present these materials in a simplified and gradual manner, helping students grasp difficult concepts easily. My teaching relies on clear explanations, illustrations, and interactive questions that enhance understanding and stimulate thinking. I strive to connect theoretical information with practical application, making learning more useful and relevant to students' academic and professional lives.

My lessons are suitable for students who need additional explanation, systematic review, or reinforcement of understanding in any of these subjects. I always strive to provide a stimulating learning environment that enables students to learn with confidence and without stress.

This class focuses on building strong medical concepts and applying them clinically. Sessions are tailored to the student’s level and goals, covering core subjects such as Anatomy, Physiology, Pharmacology, Pathology, and Clinical Medicine. Teaching is exam-oriented and aligned with USMLE, UKMLA, NBME, and OSCE requirements.

Classes are interactive and structured, using clear explanations, clinical cases, and exam-style questions to reinforce understanding. The emphasis is on logical thinking, long-term retention, and confidence in applying knowledge, rather than rote memorisation.

I’m a fresh Medical Doctor (MD) with 8 years of experience teaching students online and offline. I’ve been where you are—stuck on a Physiology concept or staring at a Chemistry equation that makes no sense. My job is to make those "impossible" subjects click for you.

What I bring to the table:

The MD Edge: I don't just memorize; I understand how the body and science work. I’ll teach you the "shortcuts" and logic I used to get through Med School.

8 Years of Versatility: Whether it’s Physiology, Chemistry, Math, or Science, I’ve taught it all. I know exactly where students usually get stuck.

Bilingual & Flexible: Need help in English? Arabic? Both? I’ve got you covered.

My Subjects:

🧬 Science/Medical: Physiology (my specialty), Chemistry, Biology.

🔢 Math: Making the numbers make sense.

🗣️ Languages: Fluent English & Arabic (Academic or Conversational).

Why work with me? I’m not a boring lecturer. I’m a coach. I’m patient, I’m high-energy, and I’m dedicated to seeing you actually get the grades you want.

This course is an integrated study of human body and drug therapy. Here, you will explore normal anatomy and physiology, the pathophysiology of disease, and the mechanism of action of key drug classifications used to treat them. The focus will be for students to master the language of medicine by exploring how body systems (cardiovascular, nervous, etc.) function and how medications are designed to intervene and restore health.
By the end of this course, you will be able to propose evidence base pharmacological interventions for common clinical conditions through interactive cases, visual models, and practical clinical applications.

This course is for people who want to learn how to cook in a way that meets specific dietary needs, particularly for those with diabetes, food allergies, or autoimmune diseases. The goal is to acquire simple, safe, and effective cooking techniques that allow you to prepare delicious meals while respecting nutritional restrictions and general health recommendations.

The course focuses on food education and culinary practice:

understanding of the ingredients and their effects (glycemic index, inflammatory load, common allergens),

adapting traditional recipes into lighter and better-tolerated versions,

food choices and cooking methods that promote balance,

smart substitutions (gluten-free, lactose-free, plant-based alternatives, low glycemic impact options),

prevention of cross-contamination in case of allergies,

meal planning and weekly preparation.

With extensive training in nutrition and wellness, as well as a long professional background in management, analysis, and communication, I take a structured, clear, and accessible approach. This course is not a substitute for medical advice, but it provides practical tools for cooking more mindfully, consciously, and healthily every day.

The sessions can take place in person in Geneva or online, depending on your preferences.
