    “

    Ahmed is incredibly interactive, adept at explaining obtuse concepts, and enriches delivery through his own real-world experiences. He is also willing to stop and help those who need it.”

    “

    He's great. One thing that stands out is that he gives us the history of why things are the way they are. With a lot of newer technologies, we are generally expected to learn what they do, why they do it, but never why it is done a certain way. Ahmed gives us that history which makes a big difference.”
