  • Lecturer at College of Medicine/Biophysics department, I was teaching practical medical physics both in the lab and in hospital (2008 – 2012). Experiences and teaching in how apparatuses in medical physics such as eye test tools are functioned. Teaching MS-Windows, MSOffice to students in College of Medicine, Dentist College and College of Nursing. Teaching practical medical physics to the students in College of Science. Teaching in very professional and modern ways. The techniques I used made the students more curious to learn and prepare home works every week. That also made me very busy because I needed to revive more than 300 emails from all the schools every week.• Student administrator manager part of my role as a lecturer 2008 – 2009.
