About Candidate
Dear Sir,
I am a PhD-qualified Pathologist with over 15 years of international academic experience across Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, Malaysia, and Caribbean medical schools. I have extensive experience teaching both medical and dental students using diverse curricula, including traditional systems, Problem-Based Learning (PBL) aligned with Groningen and UK models, and USMLE-oriented programs.
Throughout my academic career, I have been actively involved in curriculum development, designing and updating learning objectives, and developing high-quality assessments including MCQs and OSCE/OSPE. I am proficient in modern assessment platforms such as ExamSoft, LMS, and Moodle. In addition, I am committed to mentoring and supervising undergraduate and postgraduate research, supporting students in achieving strong academic and professional outcomes.
Having served as Course Director and Professor, I bring strong academic leadership, dedication to student-centred learning, and the ability to work effectively within multicultural environments. My research background, with 20+ peer-reviewed publications and funded projects, further supports my contribution to academic excellence.
I will be honoured to give my excellent services to your institution.
Kind regards.
