Instructors

Wissam El Hussari
Instructor, Business Administration

I have a University degree in Economics followed by a degree in Business Administration (Marketing and Sales). Currently, I am teaching Marketing and Sales courses at ̽»¨Ö±²¥. Talking a little bit about my previous experience, I started my professional career by joining the United Nations as a volunteer, grew with them, and after that became part of their supervising team working in aiding refugees with traumas and financial issues and also lecturing them about personal hygiene. I worked with them in 2 projects for 1.5 years which gave me experience in assisting, teaching and leading. After that, I planned to continue my education and obtained my Business Administration degree in Marketing and Sales. During my education, I worked in Sales for 8 months gaining experience in negotiating and dealing with customers. Also, I worked in Ontario Elections 2018.

I enjoy teaching because it allows me to share my understanding and knowledge with others. It is not just teaching, it is more of making a difference in students’ lives. To be able to inspire, support and guide others is very rewarding!

In my free time, I enjoy doing some sports like going to the gym, hiking, diving, horse riding and playing soccer. Also, I like traveling which allows me to discover new cities and cultures. Not to forget my pleasure in rescuing and taking care of homeless animals (I was part of Animal welfare charity).
