I graduated from Cairo University in 2004 with a Bachelor of Arts (Arabic department). Eager to share my knowledge, I immediately dove into the world of teaching, spending three rewarding years as an Arabic instructor for non-Arab students in Egypt.
In 2007, I joined the dynamic team at Raffles International School as an Arabic teacher. It was there that I honed my skills in engaging students from diverse backgrounds, igniting their enthusiasm for the richness of the Arabic language.
I made the move to Dubai British School Emirates Hills in 2010, where I had the privilege of teaching both Arabic and Islamic studies. This dual role allowed me to truly immerse myself in the cultural and spiritual aspects of the Arab world, fostering a deep appreciation for the connections between language and faith.
Driven by a thirst for continuous learning, I embarked on a journey of professional development. In 2015, I obtained the prestigious ACTFEL qualification, equipping me with specialized techniques for teaching Arabic to non-Arab students. This was followed by the completion of a pedagogical diploma in 2018, further enhancing my pedagogical expertise.
Additionally, I have recently begun (NPQSL) program, positioning me to lead the Arabic and Islamic department with strategic vision and innovative approaches.
As the Head of the Arabic and Islamic Department at the outstanding Dubai British School since 2022, I am thrilled to inspire a new generation of learners, fostering their appreciation for the linguistic and cultural richness of the Arab world.
