My name is Mohamed Al Ashram. As an author, instructor, and veterinarian, I am deeply passionate about medicine, science, and technology. Reading and writing are not just hobbies for me; they are my true joys. With a medical background and a degree in veterinary medicine, along with postgraduate studies in microbiology, biochemistry, and genetics, I find endless motivation in learning and teaching.
Teaching is not merely a job; it’s a responsibility and a mission. It’s about transferring knowledge and experience to our sons and daughters, our colleagues, and our students. I believe that every lesson learned is a stepping stone toward a brighter future. Through education, we can inspire curiosity, foster innovation, and cultivate the next generation of thinkers and doers. That’s what drives me every day.
