Heba Ak

I am currently an Adjunct Assistant Professor at Ajman Uni. Over the past four years I taught seven different theoretical courses along with their practical courses which all instructor final evaluations were excellent and I received the Adjunct Faculty Excellence in Teaching Award (Oct. 2019). I teach with passion using most advanced techniques. I am looking forward to being member of the HCT family. I’m highly motivated and hard worker on individual level or team environment level. I have high communication skills with ability to adopt changes and work under pressures. I also have excellent knowledge of scientific research methods with high ability for fast scanning, searching, and collecting. My personal passion and professional experiences lie in two different fields.

As for education, I was born to be an educator! my first official position was during my undergraduate period (19 years old) I worked as a Tutor in the UAE university to help new students with Math & Computer Science. I have then worked as Researcher Assistant while I’m still undergraduate student and gave new chemistry research students training courses on some instruments. After that I worked as a chemistry teacher in an American and British Schools while contenting my research as a volunteered Research Assistant in the UAE university. I found that my professional experience provided me with a broad view that is useful in assisting students with real-world problem-solving skills. These experiences have built my confidence; and the growing interest in a teaching that makes a different. I look forward to the opportunity to not only teach existing courses, but also to develop new ones toward bridging the gap between industry and higher education. I also aspire to contribute to research ventures that support the improvement of teaching practices and learning performance.

I would enjoy discussing a work opportunity with you.
