Math Centers / Mirdif / Our Team

Mohamed Elsukary

Center Director

Mohamed is the Center Director of Mathnasium Uptown Mirdif, UAE. He is from Alexandria, Egypt and graduated from the Arab Academy for Science and Technology with a Bachelor's degree in Electronics and Communication Engineering. What he enjoys most about Mathnasium is the atmosphere, the way in which the instructors help one another and the feedback they receive from students and parents. He has loved Math ever since he was a little child. He thinks that most students who don't like Math is due to the way in which it was taught to them. This has given Mohamed the motivation to want to teach Math and has improved his Math skills since joining Mathnasium. He started his journey at Mathnasium as an Instructor in December 2020, progressingly quickly to becoming an assistant to the Center Director, then became the Center Director since February 2021. Mohamed loves reading, writing, road trips, playing football and traveling.
