  • Ahmed is the best mentor I’ve ever met. He stands on the expression of “Show don’t tell”. He helped me a lot in my case, and he told me about his previous experience in similar cases, and we’ve extended time.

Anything else? Ask me in a mentoring session or in the form below.

How do I book a mentoring session?

Pick a time on my ADPList profile and write a line about what you want to cover. Mentoring on ADPList is free.

Which course should I start with?

New to UX: start with Intro to UX Design on almentor. Looking for a job: my Arabic course on Udemy, Land any job interview with AI, shows how to write your CV and prepare for interviews with AI tools.

Can you review my portfolio?

Yes, in a 1:1 session. Share the link when you book, so the whole session goes to feedback rather than a first look.

Yes. I design programs around the team’s level and goals, and have delivered them with organisations such as Carerha and Sprints. Tell me about your team in the form below.
