About Me
Hello! My name is Dr. Hajar; general medical doctor, and currently working as a general doctor in a Moroccan hospital. I've always wanted to help the future doctors learn how to expand their knowledge beyond the biomedical sciences ! In my own experience, I've had excellent tutors and mentors in school, internships, and jobs - and I appreciate how much their support and guidance have contributed to my growth. These tutors and mentors would listen well, provide me with help while challenging me to learn, and explain things in a way that led to understanding. Today, these are qualities I hold when I teach and tutor.
My expertise lies in defining the medical humanities and exploring their origins, understanding their goals and going deeper in literature and history. Discussing modernism in medicine as well as philosophy, behavioral health, religion, gender, race and sexuality. Most importantly we'll be focusing on how can we teach empathy through medical humanities and shape more humane doctors by the use of patients' case studies. If you're a beginner, I can help you build a strong foundation of the topics that you want to learn at a pace you can follow. If you're looking to nourish your knowledge , I can help you master concepts and get ahead. And if you're simply looking for someone to have a profound discussion with, I'm in!
Shoot me a message and briefly tell me about what your goal is and we can create a personalized lesson plan.
