Meet the founder who brought it all together
Overcoming Obstacles
Growing up in a traditional Islamic home, my educational options were limited. But I was determined to learn. I pursued beauty therapy, opened my own salon, and thrived as a hands-on mom to my three children. My desire to teach only intensified
Discovering My Calling
As a child, I was always drawn to teaching. I'd help friends with homework, assist teachers, and even tutor my classmates. Little did I know, this innate passion would one day blossom into a lifelong calling.
Finding My Purpose
My journey took a pivotal turn when I enrolled in a Montessori course. I landed my first teaching job and discovered the joy of making a difference in young lives. Witnessing children thrive and matriculate was a testament to the power of dedicated teaching.
A Dream Realized
Im proud to have established Shining Stars Academy, where every child receives personalized attention and nurturing guidance. Join me on this exciting journey
as we empower young minds to illuminate the future.
