Mrs. Lamis Mawafi very successfully completed her participation in the »Train-the-Trainer« program which aims to provide German Jordanian University academics with hands-on project experience at one of the German partner universities. During spring semester 2014 she spent a period of 4 months observing, assisting, and teaching in our study program.

During her stay, Mrs. Lamis Mawafi took full responsibility for a project about »Visual Arts in the Islamic Context« and assumed the duties of planning and teaching the course within our regular program for a group of 20 German and international students.

“I first met Lamis when she was my lecturer in GJU. For me, she symbolizes all the Vital qualities an educator should possess commitment, passion, and genuineness. She is one of the handful of teachers who can make you feel excited about going to class and I would definitely advise that her class is one you shouldn’t miss. Her enthusiasm is mirrored in her students’ willingness to put in the work necessary to successfully pursue this field which she made grow fonder on us.

“I first met Lamis when I was a supervisor for her Masters project. Lamis Embraced many sorts of research both theoretical and practical art making (especially textiles) and created a meaningful project which speaks of confluence between Jordanian and New Zealand cultures. Lamis’s has many design and art skills and these, combined with her personality made her a much loved lecturer at the school of Design. She has the ability to make her students shine.

“ I first met Lamis in my very first Lecture at the German Jordanian University, and knew straightaway that I wanted her to be my graduation project supervisor in 5 years time. Luckily she not only supervised my graduation project, but also played a very inspiring role throughout my five years at GJU, and was still involved post-graduation.

She’s the type of mentor who could spot the smallest potential in her students, and who would never cease to push them to their limits. Her creative thought process, and her passion to teach have certainly been a very touching experience. It is enough proof for me that my best projects are the ones she supervised and mentored. She helped me grow and improve professionally, and has helped shape my perspective on design.

Lamis would be a vital and valuable asset to any organization she works in, and would certainly be the mentor any aspiring student could ever want.”
