Amira Achouri
As a qualified Professor of English Studies with more than eleven years of experience, I prepare and deliver lectures to students of Licence’s and Master’s Degree. I teach a varied range of curriculum including British Civilization, American Civilization, Canadian Civilization, South-African Civilization, Indian Civilization, translation, reading, writing, study skills, and soft skills. Indeed, as a professional passionate and enthusiastic lecturer, I am dedicated to teaching adults the secrets to finding success through professional education and helping them reach their potential and goals.
In addition to the primary teaching responsibilities for the Department of English Studies, my responsibilities include academic advising, curriculum designing and development, selecting texts, preparing course syllabi, and other standard non-teaching duties, such as institutional and professional services. Throughout two academic years, I have held the position of Executive Head of Jury of examinations for the English Licence’s Degree.
I have also worked as an Administration and Academic Support Manager at Laureate Vocational Saudi Arabia Buraidah Female College through which I possessed overall strategic and effective operational management of the College to implement the vision and undertaking. I contributed in the enactment of various leadership responsibilities, which were linked to the successful management of the administration and academic curricula. My role included leading, preparing, running budgetary and human resources, executing and assessing the scholastic program and retorting to innovation.
I had the appropriate skills to efficiently raise information and find solutions to administrators, coordinators, employees, students and the general public. I succeeded in outlining difficulties, collecting and analyzing data, determining facts, and taking decisions. Moreover, with a confirmed talent to work in a culturally-diverse setting, I enjoyed supervising employees coming from various international companies, with different academic, national and cultural backgrounds.

Papers by Amira Achouri
The tea parties seem to be the expression of a new conservative movement and formerly well established in the country. Their three major themes were resumed for the return of moral values, a strong defense of the country and a government based on discrete lower taxation. Beyond these areas of political preference, Tea Party activists were pointed by their exaltation of the foundations of the American nation, first and foremost the Constitution. These themes have met a wide echo, sometimes giving the impression that the entire country switched in opposition to the Obama administration. The protest movement was in fact inspired by populist hostility to elites and political machines. The method of the tea parties’ organizing, marked by great spontaneity, remained largely uncontrollable for a traditional party. This organic nature therefore also questioned the growing role of the post-disciplinary think tanks and organizations, as well as the role of media and new technologies in American democracy. Through blogs and Twitter, a vocal minority was able to mobilize large crowds.
Books by Amira Achouri
This thesis explores the conception of emigration and how it steadily became “a predominant way of life” in Ireland, so pervasive and integral to Irish life that it had affected the broad context of both Irish and American histories simultaneously. From the post-colonial perspective, my study presents emigration as one of the greatest emotional issues in Irish history, as it tends to have a very negative image especially in the post-Famine era. People are generally seen as involuntary “exiles”, compelled to leave Ireland by “British tyranny” and “landlord oppression” - an idealized Ireland where everyone was happy and gay and where roses grew around the door of the little white-washed cottage.
My study further examines the experiences of the Irish people who immigrated to America as a result of the Potato Famine during the years 1845-1851. Once surviving the journey across the Atlantic, many of the Irish immigrants chose to stay in Eastern cities that had been established for hundred of years. Chapter Two adopts New York City as a place where many groups sought refuge and new opportunities. In so doing, they faced not only the challenge of assimilating into American culture but also overcoming racial prejudice. The determination of the Irish to not only survive the Famine in Ireland, but to succeed in America is the eventual underlying theme of my study.
