About Me

Let me introduce myself, Mehdi, a PhD student in organic chemistry at the Euromed University of Fez. Since 2019, during my third year of my degree, I have been giving support courses in organic chemistry, which has allowed me to develop solid teaching experience in this discipline.

This year, I had the honor of teaching organic chemistry to students from various backgrounds, including Turkey, France, Switzerland, Belgium, as well as Morocco.

Education

I obtained a fundamental degree in material sciences and chemistry, with an option in organic chemistry. Subsequently, I continued my studies with a master's degree in organic chemistry. Currently, I am in the second year of a doctorate in the same field.

Experience / Qualifications

Since 2019, I have been providing support courses in organic chemistry. This year, I started teaching online using different platforms such as Apprentus and Preply.
