"As a Palestinian American raised in Rochester, New York, I've always been fortunate to live in a world rich with both American and Arabic cultures. My summers spent in Palestine instilled in me a deep appreciation for my heritage and a love for languages. This bilingual upbringing fueled my passion for fostering understanding and celebrating diversity in young minds.
That passion led me to pursue a Master's degree in Early Childhood Education at Brockport University. My studies equipped me with the skills to develop engaging curriculums and deliver differentiated instruction, ensuring each student has the opportunity to flourish. Since graduating in 2020, I've dedicated my summers to teaching at an Islamic school, working with children in grades one through three. My calm and understanding demeanor allows me to create a nurturing environment where students feel comfortable taking risks and reaching their full potential.
The greatest satisfaction comes from witnessing my students' growth. Whether it's a student overcoming a learning challenge or simply experiencing the joy of discovery, my dedication to fostering a love of learning is what truly motivates me. For me, a student's willingness to learn is all that matters. My passion lies in guiding young minds on their educational journey, regardless of their background or circumstance." less...
