  • Description

    Hi, my name is Ahmed! I’m someone who loves learning, meeting new people, and taking on new challenges. I’m always looking for ways to grow, adapt, and make a positive impact—whether that’s through teaching, coaching, creating, or just lending a helping hand wherever it’s needed.

    For the past three years, I’ve worked as a private tutor, helping students build confidence in English, Maths, and Science. There’s nothing better than seeing someone finally grasp a concept they’ve been struggling with. After earning my 120-hour TEFL certificate, I’m excited to help people improve their English in a way that feels natural and fun—without the pressure of a classroom.

    Outside of teaching, I’ve spent years coaching boxing for both kids and adults. I love the energy and discipline that come with training, and I’ve seen firsthand how fitness can boost confidence and mental strength. Whether it’s helping locals stay active or giving travelers a fun new experience, I’d love to share that passion with others.

    I also have experience in web development and social media. I once built a website from scratch for young students in the UK who wanted to get into tech, designing everything from the branding to the interactive features. On the social media side, I grew my own TikTok account to over 1,000 followers in under a month by understanding trends and making content that people actually want to see. Combined with my photography skills, I know how to create eye-catching content that tells a story and engages an audience.

    Beyond that, I’ve worked in all sorts of jobs—retail, food service, security, photography—you name it. These experiences have taught me how to communicate with all kinds of people, think on my feet, and adapt to whatever situation I’m in. Honestly, I’m not picky when it comes to work. I just love learning new things and getting stuck in, whether it’s helping out with maintenance, assisting customers, or taking on creative projects.

    This is my first solo travel experience, and I couldn’t be more excited. I’m looking for opportunities where I can learn, adapt, and contribute in any way I can. No matter what the role is, I bring enthusiasm, creativity, and a willingness to take on anything that comes my way!

  • More details about your skills

    I am an ambitious and proactive individual with a passion for education, coaching, and community engagement. With experience as a private tutor and assistant boxing coach, I have developed the ability to connect with people, adapt to different learning styles, and create positive and supportive environments. Teaching has always been something I’ve enjoyed, and earning my TEFL certificate has only strengthened my desire to help others grow in their language skills and confidence.

    Beyond academics, I love working with young people to build discipline, teamwork, and resilience. My experience as a boxing coach has shown me how important it is to encourage and support individuals in reaching their goals, whether in the classroom or through physical activity. I also thrive in fast-paced, unpredictable environments, having dealt with countless unexpected situations in my work, which has made adaptability one of my strongest skills.

    This will be my first time solo traveling, and I couldn’t be more excited to step outside my comfort zone, immerse myself in new cultures, and give back in any way I can. Whether it's teaching English, coaching sports, or supporting a community project, I’m eager to bring my energy, dedication, and willingness to learn to any opportunity that allows me to make a meaningful impact.
