"Being guided by Mr. Sibtain Ahmed – a very enthusiastic and friendly Team Leader – helped me quickly integrate into the class right from the very first sessions. He not only provided detailed and clear instructions on how to complete assignments throughout the course but also always tried to bridge the gap between group members by regularly checking in on everyone's situation, sharing stories, and encouraging everyone to talk about their personal interests to find common ground. Thanks to that, the class atmosphere became warm, cheerful, and everyone could easily support one another. I am truly grateful for his dedication and hope to continue learning with him in the future."
"Sibtain's commitment as a co-founder for QubitCoders (Competitive Programming Community) was commendable for delivering webinars and organizing programming competitions for 300 students. His enthusiasm was grounded in selfless initiative to create awareness among peers and juniors to upskill and compete on national and international competitions."
Being a Teaching Assistant is about more than grading. It's about mentorship and supporting the next generation of engineers.
"Sibtain is absolutely the best TA I’ve ever had! He’s super helpful and supportive, both in class and outside of it. He really knows how to make things clear and easy to understand. Honestly, his teaching skills are off the charts. I'd give him a 100 out of 10!"
"I had a really great experience with you as a TA in COMS 1270. You were always approachable, patient, and genuinely invested in helping students understand the material. Whether during labs or office hours, you took the time to explain concepts clearly and made sure everyone felt comfortable asking questions. Your support throughout the semester made a big difference in my learning, and I truly appreciated how available and encouraging you were."
"Sibtain was my TA for a semester but the impact he left on me was great. He inspired me to follow his footsteps and apply to be a TA. His method of instruction is clear and concise, and he is always willing to break it down further for you. He is truly one of the nicest people and is incredibly hard working."
I measure my success by the breadth of my intellectual pursuits—whether it's running distance, mastering chess theory, or mentoring the next generation.
