Narrating his success story, the first class graduate of the American University in Dubai, advised students to always ask questions whenever they do not understand any topic taught in class.

"One thing I never did, while I was in school was to be afraid to ask my professors for clarity on any concept I don't understand... I don't also feel shy to ask my class mates. It won't reduce you, rather it will make you a better student."
