Dr. Al Mahameed is passionate about accounting and society and he has been actively engaging in a wide range of initiatives and projects around the world: - He started Rwad project in 2013, where I designed and developed an interactive programme that empowers entrepreneurs through accounting and social accounting. - Dr. Al Mahameed is involved in developing an interactive game that delivers financial and analytical knowledge to disadvantaged learners.
Dr. Al Mahameed believes in teaching that shares responsibility with learners by creating a space to debate and develop ideas. He also believes that we learn differently, having barriers to cross in learning, so a part of his teaching approach is to identify these and find ways to minimise their effects. By doing so, a balance of professional, intellectual and transferable skills can be delivered and achieved by leaners.
