Reflections from

the ASC Family Members

Abdullah Qasim - Peer Mentor 1086616

As a peer mentor, I willingly shoulder the responsibility of aiding and supporting
those in need. While this burden may seem daunting to some, for me, dedicating
myself to assisting others and giving my all to support them feels like the natural
choice. My interactions with fellow students and professionals have enriched
my communication skills and enhanced my ability to fulfill my duties effectively.
Recognizing that my true passion lies in empowering others and contributing to
the growth of future generations through my teachings has been a driving force
in my journey.

Sara Ahmed Al-Bejawi – Peer Tutor 1092218

My experience as a peer tutor has been incredibly fulfilling, offering me the chance
to connect with my peers on a deeper level as we navigate academic challenges
together. Not only has tutoring strengthened my understanding of the subjects I
teach, but it has also honed my communication and leadership skills. Witnessing
the growth and success of my friends and acquaintances brings me immense
satisfaction, reinforcing my belief in the transformative power of education.
Sitting more often in university and being always ready to offer assistance have
given me a sense of purpose and belonging within the academic success center
community. Overall, this experience has been profoundly enriching, contributing
to both my personal and academic growth, and I am grateful for the opportunity
to support and empower others in their educational journey.

Maleeha Rasool - Course Assistant 1083023

As a Course Assistant for ENG200, I’ve had the privilege of supporting fellow
students in their academic journey for the past year. My role has been deeply
rewarding as I strive to aid learners in every way possible, whether it’s clarifying
concepts, providing feedback on assignments, or offering study tips. Each
semester brings new opportunities to engage with students and facilitate
their learning process, and witnessing their progress and growth has been
immensely satisfying. Being a course assistant has not only allowed me to share
my knowledge but also enriched my own understanding of the subject matter,
making it one of the most fulfilling experiences in my academic journey so far.
