My dream is basically about on how to arouse my student’s interest in mathematics and to help them master the basic foundation of all mathematical concept. Help maintain the highest quality in the math department and enhance students learning by new skills and techniques. The mastery of my subject areas will be of great help to become one of the dedicated professionals not only to teach but also to support and encourage students to reach as high a standard as possible so that students may develop the skills and attributes they need to succeed in their chosen occupational sectors and jobs. Lastly, be a part of AUE history in building a workforce with young Emirate who is capable of operating effectively in today's global business environment.
