Mohamed is a self-proclaimed comedian.
Mohamed was forced to drop out of school two years ago because his parents could not afford the fees. Like many MindLeaps students, Mohamed's self-esteem was low when first starting and he would get self-conscious during dance class. But kind support from the dance teachers made a big difference. One of the teachers said of Mohamed, "a smile in his direction goes a long way and then his smile is the brightest smile I’ve ever seen."
Mohamed is also a self-proclaimed comedian. In addition to jokes, some of his favorite things are:
Favorite Color: Yellow
Favorite dance move: saut de chat
Favorite Animal: Horse
When students first come to MindLeaps, many are unable to think about the future. When asked what he dreams of being when he grows up, Mohamed answered that he just wants to be happy. When asked a few months later he said some of his dream careers would be a soccer player or a boxer.
