I am a full time classroom teacher at ISCS teaching British Curriculum EYFS to KG 2 students.
This is my third consecutive year achieving Outstanding performance and perfect attendance record and high student achievement results in UK standardised tests.
Moved to the American Branch in 2019 as a Science Teacher for grades 3 and 4

6- Lycee Georges Pompidou: September 2012: Currently working at the French Lycee Georges Pompidou as Arabic Language, Islamic Studies and English Language teacher on a part time basis.

5- Australian International School, Sharjah-UAE.
August 07 to July 2009
After relocating from Saudi Arabia to UAE in July 07, I joined The Australian International School in Sharjah as a teacher of Arabic Language to KG classes.
Later on, I transferred to the Junior School as a teacher to non-speakers of Arabic, teaching Arabic, French and Islamic Studies to grades 1-6. I was also involved in the school's extracurricular activities.

During my second year at AIS, I was promoted to the position of Leader of Learning
( Early years to 3rd Grade), a challenging position with various responsibilities among which leading planning meetings, resourcing, curriculum development, designing assessment tools (one of which was the Ministry's Arabic Language Final Exam for Grade 6), leveling readers, professional development sessions for teachers, as well as creating the Arabic Department's teaching aids.
One of my most important achievements was to help Arabic teachers to plan and to teach in line with the Australian classroom teachers according to the Queensland curriculum guidelines.

During the course of those two years, I participated in the organization of all the cultural, religious and social functions at the school. I also designed an Arabic Language course for the Australian teachers as well as lectures about the Arabic society and culture.
I had a large contribution to the management meetings for the purpose of interpretation and translation to liaise the Arabic Department to the Australian community and administration.

For the following academic year, I was offered the position of Head of Curriculum (Early Years to 5th grade) which I had to, unfortunately, decline for personal reasons.

2- Academic year 2003-04: KG3 Class Teacher
During that term, my job was to teach the children Maths and Language Arts. The adopted approach was far from conventional as I strongly believe in teaching through play and exploration rather than the traditional lecturing method.
