Hi, I'm Ahmed!
I’m a first-year BSc Accounting and Finance student at SOAS. I chose SOAS because of its unique global perspective, diverse community, and strong emphasis on understanding finance in an international and real-world context. The course is both challenging and rewarding, offering a great mix of technical skills and critical thinking.
Beyond my studies, I have a strong background in teaching and mentoring. I’ve spent the past three years leading the 11 Plus department at a tuition center, successfully guiding students through their exams. This experience has strengthened my communication and leadership skills, which I now bring into my university life.
I’m passionate about exploring the intersections of finance, business, and global development, and I hope to qualify as a Chartered Accountant in the future. Outside of academics, I enjoy engaging in student-led initiatives and networking with like-minded individuals.
If you have any questions about studying Accounting and Finance at SOAS, student life, or anything else, feel free to reach out—I’d love to help!

I am an open-minded and curious individual who thrives on exploring new experiences, ideas, and perspectives. Whether it’s immersing myself in different cultures, learning new skills, or pushing personal boundaries, I embrace challenges with enthusiasm and adaptability. My interests are diverse, spanning finance, art, theater, music, and adventure sports, reflecting my desire to engage with both analytical and creative disciplines. I find excitement in intellectual discussions, hands-on experiences, and deep dives into niche topics that broaden my understanding of the world. Always eager to step out of my comfort zone, I believe growth comes from experiencing the unfamiliar. From learning a new language to experimenting with different artistic styles or engaging in high-intensity activities like skydiving, I approach life with a mix of ambition, curiosity, and a constant drive for self-improvement. For me, every opportunity is a chance to evolve, connect, and gain new insights.
