About

I am Dr. Mohammad Ibrar Alam Ansari, an English language instructor, teacher trainer, and public speaker with a deep passion for education. With a Ph.D. in English from Aligarh Muslim University and certifications like CELTA, DELTA, and IELTS Trainer from Cambridge and IDP Australia, I have dedicated my career to enhancing English language learning. As an instructor at King Abdulaziz University, Jeddah, I specialize in modern teaching methodologies, integrating technology, blended learning, and student-centered approaches to create engaging and effective learning experiences. Over the years, I have conducted numerous webinars, workshops, and training sessions, helping educators and students develop strong communication skills and a deeper understanding of the English language. My journey in education has been driven by a commitment to innovation and excellence. I actively incorporate digital tools like LMS, Blackboard, Kahoot, and Padlet to make learning interactive and impactful. Through my experience in public speaking, I have also developed a strong presence in teacher training and leadership development, earning multiple awards for my contributions. My goal is to empower both educators and learners with the skills and confidence needed to excel in English communication. I believe that language learning should be engaging, adaptive, and accessible to all, and I am dedicated to making that a reality.
