He is the writer of Margins: essays on Writing and Literature, Exile, and Postmodernity published in Arabic with Tabarak Publishers in Cairo, Egypt.
Al Deek was Head of the Departments of English Language and Literature and the Department of Translation at the American University in Madaba, Jordan where he worked as a professor of English and Comparative Literature and Editor of its magazine (2015 – 2020).
He also worked as a professor of English and Comparative Literature at the University of Jordan and The Middle East University.
Dr Al Deek was an accredited assessor and certified coordinator of English and instructor of communication skills at Working Links in the northeast of England, liaising programs with the Labour Party for immigrants and the unemployed, funded by the European Union and the Ministry of Labor.
He worked briefly as an academic instructor at Sunderland University (UK) and was a teacher in various primary and secondary schools in Newcastle Upon Tyne, England.
He worked as a certified translator and interpreter across the northeast of England in courts of law, hospitals and police stations.
Dr Al Deek has published many newspaper articles with The Jordan Times in Amman, The Palestine Chronicle in Ramallah, Syria Times, and Al Rai Al Youm in London.
He held the position of chair of jury and evaluation committees for many creative writing competitions.
He coordinated and led youth programs and workshops in Palestine, Jordan and England.
He volunteered with Erasmus Plus, the European Union, as part of youth programs and cultural exchanges in Palestine and Italy.
He participated in international conferences in Lebanon, India, England and Haifa.
He peer-reviewed and has various research papers on nationalism, immigration, diversity and overlapping literary genres, the psychological impact of colonialism, quarantine, exile, and women’s rights.
Al Deek graduated with a Master's degree in World Literatures and a Doctorate in Post-colonial Literature from England in 2006 and 2013, respectively.
He was born in 1984. His origins go back to the village of Kafr Al Deek in the West Bank of Colonised Palestine from which both of his parents were displaced after the Naksa of 1967. As a result, he was born in Jordan, holds a German nationality, and spent most of his life in England, and writes in both Arabic and English.
Al-Deek is currently working on a poetry collection titled Bare, Elsewhere.

My approach varies from formal to informal, from conversational to reading and comprehension, and from structural to subordinate. I believe that for one to become a better speaker, one has to be a good listener; and I will always be there for you to guide you through both. As well as the four main skills (writing, reading, listening, and speaking), I can provide various Arabic pronunciations and dialects (Syrian, Palestinian, Lebanese and Egyptian).
