In a world that often feels fragmented by language, culture, and geography, Mohammad Tabrizian has found his purpose in building bridges—one word at a time.
Born into a blend of Emirati and British life, Mohammad quickly became fluent in three languages: English, Arabic, and Farsi. But it wasn’t just his linguistic ability that set him apart—it was his deep understanding of what connects people beyond the words themselves.
“I realized early on that communication isn’t just about speaking—it’s about being heard, felt, and understood,” he says.
After earning his Bachelor's degree in Communication Studies from the University of Sharjah, Mohammad pursued a Master’s in Public Speaking and Professional Communication at the University of Leeds. His academic journey reflected his real-life mission: exploring how speech shapes identity and bridges cultural divides. His master’s research delved into persuasive techniques used in both parliamentary speeches and TEDx platforms, laying the foundation for the work he does today.
From 2016 to 2019, he served as a motivational speaker for the UAE Ministry of Youth Affairs, delivering talks on leadership and resilience across schools and universities. “I met students who had powerful stories but didn’t believe their voices mattered. That changed everything for me,” he recalls.
This passion led him to establish Eloquence Academy in London in 2019—an institute dedicated to coaching individuals in public speaking, storytelling, and cross-cultural communication. With operations in both the UK and UAE, the academy hosts the annual Voices of Tomorrow summit, a platform where emerging speakers share stories that transcend borders.
As a visiting lecturer at both the University of Birmingham and Zayed University, Mohammad continues to emphasize the power of speech as a tool for empathy and transformation. He also hosts a podcast, Voices Beyond Borders, where he interviews guests on identity, language, and cultural healing.
His books—The Voice Within, Stage Whisper, and Bridging the Gulf—each explore a different facet of his philosophy: that silence can speak, vulnerability is strength, and stories are bridges.
“At the heart of everything I do,” he says, “is the belief that our voices are more than just sounds—they are instruments of change.”
In a divided world, Mohammad Tabrizian stands as a reminder that words, when used with intention, can not only move hearts—but unite them.
