Testimonial

"As a new Math instructor in the foundation program, I would like to share the following:

1. It is a great experience teaching in the foundation program, as I am constantly looking for areas of growth through the help I received from my colleagues, coordinators, and managers. 
2. I am enjoying teaching this foundation level for university students where they interact in the best possible way that enables them to succeed in their future courses and careers."

"The Foundation Program has been great! It’s exactly the type of program I was looking for. My courses in the Foundation Program were rewarding in every possible way."

"This is my second semester in UDST. I am an EFL instructor in the Foundation Program. I am thrilled to see how both administration and instructors are very friendly and helpful. This opportunity has added a lot to my teaching experience."

"At the beginning of my admission to University of Doha, I was having difficulty communicating with other students and teachers because I was unable to speak fluently in English, but in my foundation course the teachers helped me a lot to develop my language and communicate with other students through class activities and put us in groups to solve assignments and discuss with other students and made projects together and do presentations. All this helped me in my major courses and increased my ability to communicate with others."

"At the moment it’s good. I would recommend the EN courses to others as they’ll meet lots of lovely people with different backgrounds which helps with their learning."

"At the outset, I would like to thank all the instructors who devoted their time to teaching students and explain to them the simplest and easiest ways to absorb information in a short period of time. I had a great time in the foundation Program as the course was informative and detailed but at the same time, the instructors were kind and always ready to help the students through doing activities inside or outside the classroom which helps students to memorize, understand and get the information easily. Therefore, I recommend that all students begin taking a foundation course of at least one year prior to enrolling in their program, as this will help them navigate their experiences and expand their awareness and knowledge when starting their program."

"I started working at UDST in August 2003 and I can say that there is always something exciting going on here. I love the learning opportunities that I have shared with students and colleagues over the years. From Falcons as part of oral presentations, to travelling to Bangladesh with students on an educational mission with Reach out to Asia, to being honored on International Teacher's Day as a 15-year employee -- rarely a dull moment. Lots of memories, shared moments and lasting friendships are at the core of so many of my teaching and learning opportunities. This is why I am still here!"

''From polishing my Mathematical skills to helping me write in APA format, the College of General Education has played a significant role in my university career. Additionally, I also gained insights in humanities as well as social sciences. This college is the hub of Mathematics, Communication, Science, Humanities, and Social Science courses. Due to Gen Ed courses mostly being planned in the first year, students form their first meaningful connections with instructors from this college. These connections last throughout their academic journey here in UDST''

Having completed all the COMM courses, I can confidently say that our CGE instructors are more than just educators; they're your personal guides to success. Their passion for teaching goes beyond the usual course syllabuses, providing a wonderful and collaborative learning experience and shaping habits that make learning and assessments a piece of cake!

"I remember having a lot of difficulties with math. The instructors here took it step by step - my grades got better, and I understood the material."

"When I started in 2008, I could not stand in front of people and talk. Then I started opening up to people and now I am a member of the Debate Club."

"I have learned a lot in this department, and I have had some incredible instructors who have helped me get through it all. I have never met such gifted and compassionate individuals who are always eager to assist. I am here today because of their generosity. It has been a wonderful journey with wonderful teachers, from inspiring us to allowing us to explore the various courses in General Education."
