With two decades of experience in English and Arabic language education across diverse international contexts, I bring a rich and reflective journey to every Bulbul aspect. My academic foundation includes an MA in Education, PGCE, Arabic Teaching Licence, and certifications in coaching, mentoring, and Arabic language instruction—including a CAT Certificate in Arabic Teaching from CAS UK and a UAE Teaching Licence in Arabic as a First Language. My passion for reimagining Arabic learning has been shaped by leadership roles such as Head of Arabic B at Kings’ School Dubai, BSME Arabic B Cluster Lead, Specialist Leader of Education at Kings Education, and Senior Trainer and Course Developer at CAS. Above all, I’m a mother of two young Arabic learners—an experience that deepens my personal responsibility to nurture their language and motivation in environments where Arabic exposure is limited.
My mother once told me, “You are excellent at everything you do—but one day, you will need to find the one thing you uniquely excel at.” Since then, I’ve known that language teaching is where I can truly unlock my potential and make the kind of impact I want to leave in this world. Becoming an Arabic educator has given my work deeper purpose and clarity. Nothing brings me more joy than hearing children—and all children—speak Arabic with confidence and pride. Teaching, for me, is more than a profession. It is my personal mission, and the most powerful method I know to inspire change.
Shaped by Simon Sinek’s vision, my own mission is to contribute to a world where educators and learners feel confident, inspired, and deeply fulfilled by what they do. I want every child to live the best Arabic learning journey possible—a journey that ends with them feeling aware of their real potential, secure in their ability to communicate and express, and positive in the face of challenge. I believe children should enjoy learning even when it’s hard, and embrace discipline when it's needed—because effort builds responsibility, and responsibility shapes character.
True learning happens when it is organic, visible, active, well-structured, and filled with imagination—when it is genuinely connected to life, to meaning, and to purpose.
If schools became homes, and classrooms became the land—
If failure became the norm, and mistakes written on sand,
If nature was the resource and teachers were the force,
Results thrown in the sea, children would learn as best they could be.
