Assorted Testimonials
Thank you Ahmed for all your efforts in teaching a comprehensive seismic review course. I learned a lot from you and I am really grateful for all the extra time you spent with me to answer my questions and made sure I understood the concept. All the preparation paid off and I have successfully passed the seismic exam. I am very appreciative of all you did to assist me, encourage me and help build my confidence. Thank you so much.

I really enjoyed your class. I was never a class room type person because of the interruptions and sidebars that students interject during the lectures. With this type of teaching method, there is no time wasted on traveling to a location. After the class, I can immediately start implementing the lectures into the problems. You also introduced strategy which many instructors do not include in their lectures. Thank you for your informative class and diligent care for your students

The textbook combined with the workshop problems gave me the confidence I needed. Thank you for sharing your seismic knowledge and the problem solving techniques. Your C3 technique helped me through the course and into the exam: Calm, Collected and Confident. I would not have passed without your course and the motivation I got from you!
