Just a little bit about me. I'm a stay at home, Designer and Artist, but my biggest passion is teaching using Montessori Method. I'm currently completing my Diploma in Montessori Elementary ages 6-9. I'm very excited to share with you what I'm learning and I hope to benefit the Ummah with whatever I can inshaAllah. I took my Diploma course with NAMC North American Montessori Center and I strongly recommend it for everyone. Its a very intense course and you will learn a lot!

Welcome to my blog! I'm very excited for the upcoming school year. I will be teaching my 7 year old and my 2 year old. Looking forward to sharing with your homeschooling journey.
